PLoS One es una alternativa más de publicación por cauces lógicos en un mundo que se mueve rápido y donde la revisión por pares debe guiarse por nuevos parámetros. ¿Por qué publicar en PLoS One? Lee sus razones:

Widely disseminated and cited results—with no access restrictions!
Open access means that your work will always be freely available to the world from our Web site and from PubMed Central. And open access translates into greater usage and more citations.
Results published FAST
PLoS ONE will couple efficient and objective peer review with a streamlined electronic production workflow. We will strive to publish papers within weeks of submission.
Technically based publication decisions
Too often a journal’s decision to publish a paper is dominated by subjective criteria, which can be frustrating and delay the publication of your work. PLoS ONE will publish all papers that are judged to be rigorous and technically sound. Judgments about the importance of any particular paper are then made after publication.
Start of a conversation
Papers published in PLoS ONE will be available for commenting and debate by the readers, making every paper the start of a scientific conversation.
Inclusive scope
Most conventional journals publish papers from tightly defined subject areas, making it more difficult for readers from other disciplines to read them. PLoS ONE has no such barriers, which helps your research reach the entire scientific community.

¿Y cómo suena todo esto cuando nos vamos a la empresa?, ¿qué implicaciones tiene en el interior de una organización?, ¿qué implicaciones en la comunicación de la empresa con sus clientes? Empecemos a considerarlo: open business.
