- When possible the publication has to be available under open content license (CC-BY licenses)
- A maximum of three publications per project will be funded
- Only publication in fully Open Access journals listed in standard directories (DOAJ, Scopus, Web of Science, or PubMed) will be entitled for funding. Publications in hybrid journals are not supported
