As a matter of principle, the Quantum Matter Design Studio aims to publish our primarily publicly-funded research in not-for-profit science journals. These journals, from publishers like AAAS, ACS, AIP, APS, IOP, NAS, SciPost (see fuller list here), use publishing or other applicable fees to support activities such as conferences, scholarships, travel grants, awards, and science advocacy, all in service of benefitting the greater scientific community. We may occasionally publish in for-profit journals when part of a collaboration.
To learn more about the lucrative business of scientific publishing see this coverage in the Guardian (here & here) and in Science (here) and to learn about efforts in not-for-profit science publishing see Purpose-Led Publishing.
