Outstanding!!!<br><br><a href="http://chronicle.com/blogs/wiredcampus/australia-to-open-publicly-financed-biomedical-research/35505?sid=wc&utm_source=wc&utm_medium=en" target="_blank">http://chronicle.com/blogs/wiredcampus/australia-to-open-publicly-financed-biomedical-research/35505?sid=wc&utm_source=wc&utm_medium=en</a><br>
<br>--------------<br><br>Australia’s National Health and Medical Research Council said it would <a href="http://theconversation.edu.au/all-research-funded-by-nhmrc-to-be-accessible-free-of-charge-5486" target="_blank">require </a>that
the published results of all research it helps pay for be made publicly
accessible in institutional repositories within 12 months of
publication. The policy, which is to take effect in July, puts the
council in line with other major supporters of scientific research,
including the National Institutes of Health and Britain’s Wellcome
Trust.
<p>“The next steps will be improving public and other researchers’
access to publicly funded data,” Warwick Anderson, the council’s chief
executive officer, wrote in a blog post announcing the policy. “In this
second decade of the 21st century, those who pay for research through
their taxes or through donations increasingly expect to be able to
access what they have paid for. This expectation will only grow.”</p>--------------<br><br>Cable<br clear="all"><br>-- <br><font face="Times New Roman" size="3">
