"We believe that for the general public to understand and have more trust in science, having easy access to research is the first step. We therefore wanted to make sure that everyone can read our work, access and download our data, and study what we did; within a week our paper had been read 32,000 times and almost 80% of our readers belong to the general public!"

Melanie During, PhD candidate at Uppsala University
