Heliyon is a monthly peer-reviewed open-access mega journal covering research in Science, Medicine and Engineering. Its counter-part for Arts, Humanities and Law is journal Social Sciences and Humanities Open. Unlike most of its competitors, the journal publishes works reporting negative/null results, incremental advances, and replication studies,[1] thus filling the market niche, which became vacant after the discontinuation of Journal of Negative Results in Biomedicine in 2017.

Heliyon was launched in 2015 by Cell Press, a division of Elsevier. According to the publisher's website: "the <journal's> name is all about shining light on important research. Helios was the Greek god of the sun. This root word gave us inspiration, as we want this journal to illuminate knowledge across a broad spectrum."[2]

The journal is divided into numerous sections, each with its own editorial team. All articles are published in Heliyon under a CC BY open access license. The article processing charge in 2024 is 2,160 US$,[3] although authors from countries eligible for Research4Life[4] program may obtain a discount or waiver.[5]
