Format

The journal publishes both original research and review articles. All articles are open access and licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution License.[1] In 2012, it launched the "Topic Page" review format, which dual-publishes peer-reviewed articles both in the journal and into Wikipedia.[2][3] It was the first publication of its kind to publish in this way.[4]
