Open Access Funding

Maximise dissemination and the global impact of your work by publishing open access!

 

CVIR Endovascular is a fully open-access journal. As such, the publisher levies an article processing charge (APC) of 1890€ / $2290 / 1570£ for each article accepted for publication, plus VAT or local taxes where applicable.

 

However, there are several funding options available.


15% discount on the APC for CIRSE Members

CIRSE offers a 15% discount on the APC for CVIR Endovascular to corresponding authors who are current CIRSE members.

 

Once a paper is accepted, authors will be prompted to submit any institutional or other membership discounts. There, authors can indicate they are CIRSE members and the editorial office will be notified to confirm this and the discount.


Please note that the CIRSE discount cannot be combined with an institutional discount, or used for already-published articles.

University of California Network

The UC libraries will cover at least the first US$1,000 of each article processing charge (APC) for all UC corresponding authors who publish open access in hybrid and fully open access journals from Springer, Palgrave, BMC and Nature Portfolio (excluding Nature and Nature research journals).

 

If there is any remaining balance due on the APC, Springer Nature will ask UC authors if they have research funding available to cover the balance. If an author does not have research funds available to cover the remainder of the APC, the UC libraries will pay the entire APC on the author’s behalf, ensuring that lack of research funds does not present a barrier for UC authors who wish to publish open access in these journals.

 

Make sure to read the Author Guide before submitting your paper to CVIR Endovascular.
