Francesca Lake On Open Access Journals and The Future of Scientific Research

Francesca Lake of Future Science Group was the guest on today’s show. She is the editor of their biomedical open access journal and was keen to talk to us about Open Access week that is taking place around the world this week! Open Access is the idea that all scientific journals should be open source and freely available for everyone to read and absorb. We talked about Open Access week and all sorts of biomedical research including 3-D printed organs, animal testing, cancer, and Alzheimer’s. **Sponsor** [https://www.unison.org.uk/](http://https://www.unison.org.uk/) **Resources** [https://www.future-science-group.com/](http://https://www.future-science-group.com/) [https://twitter.com/futuresciencegp?lang=en](http://https://twitter.com/futuresciencegp?lang=en) [https://wyss.harvard.edu/technology/human-organs-on-chips/](http://https://wyss.harvard.edu/technology/human-organs-on-chips/) [https://www.ted.com/talks/sam_harris_can_we_build_ai_without_losing_control_over_it](http://https://www.ted.com/talks/sam_harris_can_we_build_ai_without_losing_control_over_it) [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19278392](http://https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19278392) [https://doaj.org/](http://https://doaj.org/) Follow us on Facebook or Twitter or [sign up for our mailing list to get information on my upcoming book, Brexit: The Establishment Civil War](http://http://www.establishmentcivilwar.co.uk/).
