Imagine if all those APCs go to journals published by scientific societies (e.g. @theAGU @EuroGeosciences). Most scientific societies give back a portion of APCs to support members’ programs (e.g., travel grants, offset costs for low income countries).

Thanks to Neal Saab and Steve Zeng for organizing an all female group to speak at IAFP on metals in foods, which I was proud to be part of. Lots of great perspectives from FDA, USDA, academics, industry and non-profits. @IAFNS_science @USDA_NIFA @US_FDA @UDcanr @UDResearch
