Open Access Policy

Journal of Translational Pharmaceutical Sciences and Technology (JTPST) publishes all content under open access terms - no paywall, login, or subscription stands between readers and the full text. Anyone may read, download, print, copy, or redistribute published articles, and may also text- or data-mine them or link to them freely, provided the original authors receive proper credit.

Authors retain copyright over their own work. What they grant JTPST is a license to publish - not a transfer of ownership. This aligns with the spirit of the Budapest Open Access Initiative, which calls for scholarly literature to be freely accessible online, reusable for any lawful purpose, and unrestricted by cost or technical barriers beyond the basic requirement of internet access.

Funding model: JTPST operates on a gold open-access basis. Publication costs are covered through an article processing charges (APC) collected once a manuscript is accepted, which keeps the article free for readers indefinitely.

Self-archiving: Authors are welcome to deposit the final accepted manuscript in any OAI-compliant institutional or subject repository.

License: Published articles carry a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International (CC BY-NC 4.0) license, meaning others may share and adapt the work non-commercially with attribution.
