NIHR has launched a new publishing platform that allows researchers to rapidly publish any research output they wish to share, supporting transparency, reproducibility and impact from publicly funded research.
NIHR Open Research allows researchers to publish not only study findings but also incremental findings, case reports and even negative findings, thus supporting the entire life cycle of research.
Following a successful pilot, NIHR Open Research has now been opened up to all types of research output from across NIHR programmes, infrastructure, schools and units. This approach means that NIHR researchers can put any information from their studies into the public domain, increasing the discoverability and reach of their research.
