It has a partnership with Springer Nature, I think to facilitiate efficiencies with the publishing process, but I believe the ethos of EMBO (an organisation founded to serve the scientific community) is very different from that of Springer Nature as a company. 2025-12-11T08:49:12Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs06m3624cdy2tfkddtz0nghj3ct3sz4u8dme9s0x2ptceq9rpkwdqzypasrudywzz69c6h05enutt4l8jy2awtsyjdhh6xu3n2qm8zy3n8qywss6y Is it a new thing that the Springer Nature branding is so prominent on the EMBO websites of the EMBO family of journals? I like publishing with EMBO because they give a lot back to the community, but I find this (new?) website very offputting.
