Right, all of the ARCR papers were open access. That's the point. We US taxpayers paid for this work to be published and be available as open access. Now there is no access.
Thanks to @cbv.bsky.social for letting me know, and now the invited paper several early career researchers worked on over the winter break for AR:CR may never see the light of day. 🤬😠😢 @monizlewis.bsky.social @matwmccool.bsky.social @fschwebel.bsky.social
What does the Trump admin have against alcohol research? (I'm authentically asking). Alcohol use disorder effects all types (blue and red). It's not a "woke" topic, I wouldn't think.
There have been issues recently on alcohol and women, as well as issues on health disparities, so I suspect those are getting scrubbed. Trying to make these curated, invited issues by experts non-existent so the problems magically disappear?
From what I can tell, this is the only NIH journal that is down. Some that are still up are surprising to me but don’t want to call them out just in case.
