Scientific Reports is a peer-reviewed open-access scientific mega journal published by Nature Portfolio, covering all areas of the natural sciences. The journal was established in 2011.[1] The journal states that their aim is to assess solely the scientific validity of a submitted paper, rather than its perceived importance, significance, or impact.[2]

In September 2016, the journal became the largest in the world by number of articles, overtaking PLOS ONE.[3][4][5]
