Abstract

In 2024, Portugal celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Carnation Revolution, which brought down a long dictatorship and re-instated elemental civil liberties and democracy in the country. For Portuguese science, this revolution meant a democratisation of access to the scientific career and an increased investment in scientific research, which culminated in an unprecedented rise in scientific output. Communications Biology joins this anniversary and celebrations of freedom and democracy as basic pillars of scientific endeavour.
