Student Page Charge Waivers Available for Publishing in Health Physics or Operational Radiation Safety

If you are a student and prepared a poster or presentation for the annual meeting, you should consider submitting it for publication because it furthers your professional status and Health Physics has fee waivers for eligible students. The funding for this comes from a "special projects" initiative the Health Physics Society negotiated with our publisher. The funds are first come, first serve, until they are gone.

If your manuscript is accepted for publication, the waiver will cover page charges of $70 per printed page. These page charges help cover some costs of publication and are essential to the continuing operations of the Journal. After publication, 50 electronic reprints will be sent to the corresponding author.

Waivers cover only page charges; they do not cover any color-figure charges that might apply. If you require color on your figures, tables, or artwork, you will be charged $500 for the first color figure and $150 for each additional color figure. Note that these fees may change without notice.

Start your publishing career early for little to no cost. Health Physics Journal is a great opportunity to share your research results with the world. Additional information and a request for waiver form that can be submitted with your manuscript is available online.
