### Academic Journal Destination: Plan S and OpenSAFELY

[Plan S](https://www.coalition-s.org/) is an initiative for Open Access publishing. Plan S requires that scientific publications that result from research funded by public grants must be published in compliant Open Access journals or platforms. Wellcome are a core funder of the OpenSAFELY platform, therefore we ask that academic outputs comply with Wellcome's Plan S requirements for journal publication. It is likely that teams will be required to comply with this for other reasons, such as receiving funding from NIHR / UKRI. For further details see [openaccess.ox.ac.uk/wellcome](https://openaccess.ox.ac.uk/wellcome).

Good spot. Happy to remove it. Or alternatively, we could replace it with this link to the generic funding requirements page. https://www.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/open-research/open-access-publishing/funder-policies
