Peer Review Process

Once submitted, your manuscript will be assigned to a member of our Editorial Board, who will read the paper and decide whether it is appropriate for the journal. Manuscripts that are within the scope and seem, on initial assessment, to be technically sound and scientifically valid, will be sent to external reviewers. Copies of any papers containing similar or related work under consideration or in press at other journals must be included with the submission.

During peer review, reviewers will be able to access your manuscript securely using our online system, whilst maintaining referee anonymity. At the submission stage, authors may indicate a limited number of scientists who should not review the paper. Excluded scientists must be identified by name. Authors may also suggest potential reviewers; these suggestions are often helpful, but they are not always followed. In cases where the journal is unable to find sufficient peer reviewers, the services of a publishing partner, Research Square, may be used to identify suitable reviewers and provide reports to avoid further delays for authors. Reviewers recruited by Research Square are paid a small honorarium for completing the review within a specified timeframe. Honoraria are paid regardless of the reviewer's recommendation. By policy, referees are not identified to the authors, except at the request of the referee.

After considering the reviewer reports the Editorial Board Member will make one of the following decisions:

  • Accept outright
  • Request a minor revision, where authors revise their manuscript to address specific concerns
  • Request a major revision, where authors revise their manuscript to address significant concerns and perhaps undertake additional work
  • Reject outright

In cases where the referees or Editorial Board Member has requested changes to the manuscript, you will be invited to prepare a revision. The decision letter will specify a deadline for the submission of a revised manuscript. Once resubmitted, the manuscript may then be sent back to the original referees or to new referees, at the Editorial Board Member's discretion. A revised manuscript should be submitted via the revision link provided in the decision letter, and not as a new manuscript. The revision should also be accompanied by a point-by-point response to referees explaining how the manuscript has been changed. We aim for accepted manuscripts to undergo one round of revision before being accepted for publication, so please ensure that all issues raised have been addressed in the first round of revision.

When all editorial issues are resolved, your paper will be formally accepted for publication. The received date stated on the paper will be the date on which the original submission passed our standard quality control checks. The accepted date stated on the paper will be the date on which the Editorial Board Member sent the acceptance letter. After acceptance, authors are sent proofs of their manuscript but only changes to the title, author list, or scientific errors will be permitted. All corrections must be approved by the publishing team. We reserve the right to make the final decision about matters of style and the size of figures.

Author Guidelines

We want to make the process of submitting your manuscript as simple as possible. Please carefully follow our step-by-step process, completing each step before progressing to the next. There are several important things you need to know and understand before you begin the submission process. From checking that your research is relevant to our journal, to preparing your manuscript and finding out about costs and funding, you will find it in this section.

Completing our submission checklist before submitting your manuscript will help ensure that you have done everything you need to do and help to prevent delays to the assessment of your manuscript. Once you have successfully completed it, you will be ready to submit your manuscript. After your manuscript is submitted via our online submission system, it enters our Editorial process

Our marketing and communications teams promote articles across multiple channels following publication. We have a pre-publicity policy for authors, and we also offer advice and guidance to help you promote your published article through your own channels and techniques.

Format of articles
We publish original research in one format: Article

In most cases, we do not impose strict limits on word count or page number. However, we strongly recommend that you write concisely and stick to the following guidelines:

  1. Articles should ideally be no more than 11 typeset pages
  2. The main text should be no more than 4,500 words (not including Abstract, Methods, References and figure legends)
  3. The title should be no more than 20 words
  4. The abstract should be no more than 200 words

Abstract
Please do not include any references in your Abstract. Make sure it serves both as a general introduction to the topic and as a brief, non-technical summary of the main results and their implications.

Manuscript
Your manuscript text file should start with a title page that shows author affiliations and contact information, identifying the corresponding author with an asterisk. We recommend that each section includes an introduction of referenced text that expands on the background of the work. Some overlap with the Abstract is acceptable.
For the main body of the text, there are no specific requirements. You can organize it in a way that best suits your research. However, the following structure will be suitable in many cases:
Introduction

  1. Results (with subheadings)
  2. Discussion (without subheadings)
  3. Methods

You should then follow the main body of text with:

  1. References (limited to 60 references, though not strictly enforced)
  2. Acknowledgments (optional)
  3. Author contributions (names must be given as initials)
  4. Additional Information (including a Competing Interests Statement)
  5. Figure legends (these are limited to 350 words per figure)
  6. Tables (maximum size of one page)

Please note, footnotes should not be used.

You may include a limited number of uncaptioned molecular structure graphics and numbered mathematical equations if necessary. Display items are limited to 8 (figures and/or tables). However, to enable typesetting of papers, we advise making the number of display items commensurate with your overall word length. So, for Articles of 2,000 words or less, we suggest including no more than 4 figures/tables. Please note that schemes should not be used and should be presented as figures instead.

Writing your manuscript
We read by a truly diverse range of scientists, many of whom are non-native English speakers. Please therefore give careful thought to communicating your findings as clearly as possible.
Although you can assume a shared basic knowledge of science, please don’t expect that everyone will be familiar with the specialist language or concepts of your particular field. Therefore:

  1. Avoid technical jargon wherever possible, explaining it clearly when it is unavoidable.
  2. Keep abbreviations to a minimum, particularly when they are not standard.
  3. If you must use an abbreviation, make sure you spell it out fully in the text or legend the first time it appears.
  4. Clearly explain the background, rationale, and main conclusions of your study.
  5. Write titles and abstracts in language that will be readily understood by any scientist.
  6. We strongly recommend that you ask a colleague with different expertise to review your manuscript before you submit it. This will help you to identify concepts and terminology that non-specialist readers may find hard to grasp.

Methods
We recommend you limit your Methods section to 1,500 words. Make sure it includes adequate experimental and characterization data for others to be able to reproduce your work. You should:

  1. Include descriptions of standard protocols and experimental procedures.
  2. Identify sources for any kits you use in your procedures.
  3. Include any experimental protocols that describe the synthesis of new compounds.
  4. Use the systematic name of any new compound and put its bold Arabic numeral in the heading for the experimental protocol, indicating it thereafter by its assigned, bold numeral.

References
We don’t copy edit your references. Therefore, it’s essential you format them correctly, as they will be linked electronically to external databases where possible. At Scientific Reports, we use the standard Nature referencing style. So, when formatting your references, make sure they:

  1. Run sequentially (and are always numerical).
  2. Sit within square brackets.
  3. Commence first in the text, followed by tables and figures (references that only appear in tables or figures should be last in the reference list).
  4. Only have one publication linked to each number.
  5. Only include papers or datasets that have been published or accepted by a named publication, recognised preprint server or data repository (if you include any preprints of accepted papers in your reference list, make sure you submit them with the manuscript).
  6. Include published conference abstracts and numbered patents, if you wish.
  7. Don’t include grant details and acknowledgments.

Sorry, we cannot accept BibTeX (.bib) bibliography files for references. If you are making your submission by LaTeX, it must either contain all references within the manuscript .tex file itself, or (if you’re using the Overleaf template) include the .bbl file generated during the compilation process as a ‘LaTeX supplementary file’ (see the "Manuscripts" section for more details).

In your reference list, you should:

  1. Include all authors unless there are six or more, in which case only the first author should be given, followed by 'et al.'.
  2. List authors by the last name first, followed by a comma and initials (followed by full stops) of given names.
  3. Use Roman text for Article and dataset titles, with only the first word of the title having an initial capital and written exactly as it appears in the work cited, ending with a full stop.
  4. Use italics for book titles, giving all words in the title an initial capital.
  5. Use italics for journal and data repository names, abbreviating them according to common usage (with full stops).
  6. Use bold for volume numbers and the subsequent comma.
  7. Give the full page range (or article number), where appropriate.
