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

Building on a strong legacy of pioneering innovation, PLOS continues to be a catalyst, reimagining models to meet open science principles, removing barriers and promoting inclusion in knowledge creation and sharing, and publishing research outputs that enable everyone to learn from, reuse and build upon scientific knowledge.

We believe in a better future where science is open to all, for all.

PLOS Medicine’s 15th Anniversary

Curated Collections

In October 2019, PLOS Medicine celebrates its 15th year of publishing excellent medical research. To celebrate, the PLOS Medicine team and several editorial board members have reflected upon the last decade and a half to identify the research they feel made the most impact on their communities. Each piece, in the form of a Speaking of Medicine blog, aims to describe why each chosen article stands out to each contributor, and how it has transformed health policy and contributed to furthering Open Access science and medical publishing. Throughout October, we’ll highlight these contributions from our communities as well as the research they’ve chosen to celebrate the success of PLOS Medicine, its diverse scope and the impact of high quality research.
