Founded in 2007, the company has grown to become one of the largest open access publishers in the world, with a mission to make scientific research freely accessible to the public.<br /> <br /> ==History==<br /> [[File:Frontiers_Media_logo.svg|Frontiers Media logo|thumb|right]]<br /> Frontiers Media was established in 2007 by [[Henry Markram]] and [[Kamila Markram]] in [[Lausanne]], [[Switzerland]]. The company was founded with the goal of providing a platform for researchers to publish their work in an open access format, thereby increasing the dissemination and impact of scientific research. Over the years, Frontiers has expanded its portfolio to include over 100 journals covering a wide array of scientific fields.<br /> <br /> ==Publishing Model==<br /> Frontiers Media operates under a [[gold open access]] model, where all articles are freely accessible to the public immediately upon publication. The costs of publication are typically covered by [[article processing charges]] (APCs) paid by the authors or their institutions. This model is designed to remove barriers to access and ensure that research is available to a global audience.<br /> <br /> ==Editorial Process==<br /> Frontiers employs a collaborative peer review process, which involves both independent reviewers and the authors working together to improve the quality of the manuscript. This process is designed to be transparent and constructive, with the aim of enhancing the scientific rigor and clarity of the published work.<br /> <br /> ==Technological Innovations==<br /> Frontiers Media has been at the forefront of integrating technology into the publishing process. The company utilizes advanced [[artificial intelligence]] tools to assist in the editorial process, ensuring efficient and accurate handling of manuscripts. For example, AI is used to detect potential ethical issues and to streamline the peer review process.<br /> <br /> [[File:AI_generated_figure_published_in_a_Frontiers_journal.png|AI generated figure published in a Frontiers journal|thumb|left]]<br /> <br /> ==Controversies==<br /> Frontiers Media has faced criticism and controversy over its business practices and the quality of its peer review process. Some critics have raised concerns about the company&#039;s reliance on APCs and the potential for conflicts of interest. Despite these criticisms, Frontiers continues to be a major player in the open access publishing landscape.<br /> <br /> ==Related pages==<br /> * [[Open access]]<br /> * [[Peer review]]<br /> * [[Academic publishing]]<br /> * [[Article processing charge]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Academic publishing companies]]<br /> [[Category:Open access publishers]]<br /> [[Category:Publishing companies established in 2007]]<br /> [[Category:Companies based in Lausanne]]</div>
