The Max Planck Society participates in the agreement between the DEAL Consortium and Elsevier and centrally covers the Open Access fees for affiliated corresponding authors in more than 2500 Elsevier hybrid and fully Open Access journals, including Cell Press and The Lancet journals.
In order to make use of the agreement, please make sure to meet the following conditions when publishing in Elsevier journals:
