Open Access Policy

Research Journal of Pharmacognosy (RJP) is published by the Iranian Society of Pharmacognosy and the Traditional Medicine and Materia Medica Research Center (TMRC), Shahid behheshti University of Medical Sciences. We believe that all research is for the benefit of humankind; research is the product of an investment by society, and therefore its fruits should be returned to all people without borders or discrimination, serving society universally and in a transparent fashion. That is why RJP provides online free and open access to all of its research publications.
