Dear researchers, I am sick of #Elsevier and their antics (ridiculous APCs, inaccessible articles, unauthorised data-mininig, etc.) and want to avoid publishing with them as much as possible. Can you suggest good journals in the following topics / fields (society journals welcome): 1. #microalgae 2. #molecularbiology 3. #crispr 4. #sustainability #opensource #openaccess #academicresearch #academia Please #boost so I can reach other academics.
