PLOS is a non-profit organization on a mission to drive open science forward with measurable, meaningful change in research publishing, policy and practice.

Open access research is shaping the future of health sciences. Ethical AI and smart technologies are transforming how we detect risks, monitor health, and deliver care—but meaningful progress depends on trusted evidence.

This analysis is part of our Redefining Publishing program exploring how scholarly communication can better support Open Science at scale, beyond the article and beyond the APC: https://plos.io/4d2m6On
Redefining Publishing: PLOS, supported by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation & Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, is launching an important new initiative

PLOS believes in a better future where science is open to all, for all. We are redefining publishing by demonstrating that new solutions are feasible and deliver tangible benefits for the entire research enterprise.

A few headline takeaways:

🔸 Biggest gains come from reuse beyond publications (data, code, software, workflows)

🔸Efficiency gains reduce duplication

🔸Open infrastructures enable innovation and spillovers

🔸Costs and benefits are unevenly distributed across the research ecosystem

Open Science isn’t just a values choice. It’s an economic one.

We are sharing a new independent report by Technopolis Group on the economic benefits of #OpenScience and what drives value when research outputs are designed for reuse at scale: https://plos.io/4sjPnZw

Populations are aging—and decisions must be evidence‑led.

PLOS Aging and Health is a new global platform for multidisciplinary research across the lifespan.
