The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation 2025 Open Access Policy Refresh: Introducing VeriXiv (Jan 2025)

In this webinar, we explain the changes to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation’s open access policy that came into effect from January 2025, including the requirement for all Gates-funded research to be published as a preprint. We explain what preprints are, why they are valuable, and the ways that preprints can support you to disseminate your research findings quickly and transparently, while promoting unrestricted access and reuse of research funded by the Foundation. To support grantees to comply with the revised policy, F1000 partnered with the Foundation to launch VeriXiv in August 2024: a new verified preprint platform that improves research integrity while enabling the rapid availability of research. We explain how the verified preprint model improves on existing preprint services by introducing robust integrity checks to ensure the trustworthiness of outputs that are disseminated in advance of formal peer review. This includes an introduction to the VeriXiv submissions workflow, the pre-publication checks, and the post-VeriXiv routes for peer review and publication of your version of record article.
