- Benefit from earlier views, citations, and more collaboration opportunities. Preprints are assigned a DOI and are immediately fully citable and broadly discoverable.
- Get increased visibility, recognition, and establish priority and productivity for grant/hiring/tenure committees – especially valuable for early-career scientists.
- Comply with funder requirements, if applicable. Increasingly, funders are recommending or requiring that funded works be deposited as a preprint ahead of publication.
- Engage the wider community in discussion to improve their manuscript with pre-publication feedback.
- Join the open research community transforming scientific communication! Rapid dissemination of your findings accelerates the pace of scientific research; sharing early and often makes science better.
