چکیده
The Company of Biologists (COB) and its journals Biology Open, Journal of Cell Science, The Journal of Experimental Biology and Development fully support this initiative. In concordance with the recommendations, all COB journals provide impact factor alongside a variety of other journal-based metrics; request an author contribution statement for all research articles; place no restrictions on the reuse of reference lists; and have no limitations on the number of references. The COB is also working with its online hosts, HighWire, to provide a range of article-level metrics.
