Open Access Policy

Impact Surgery is a fully compliant Open Access journal, and we are aiming for registration with the Directory of Open Access Journals in 2025.

UKRA, NIHR (UK), and Wellcome funded authors

We comply fully with the OA requirements of UKRI, Wellcome, and the NIHR. Where required by their funder, authors retain the right to distribute their author accepted manuscript (AAM), such as via an institutional and/or subject repository (e.g. Europe PMC), under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) licence for release no later than the date of first online publication.
