Introducing StemRxiv

Preprint Portal for Stem Cell Researchers

We are pleased to share news of StemRxiv. This is a preprint portal, available via our website, where researchers can discover the latest research findings in the field. It will provide options to submit, publish, and access preprints across all areas of stem cell research, and it will be the one place to visit to uncover the latest findings, before they are published in peer-reviewed journals (at this stage, we hope you will choose StemJournal; here's how).

The main elements of StemRxiv are being rolled out in two phases:
(i) Submit (available now)
(ii) Search (coming soon).

If you have never considered posting your research as a preprint (prior to journal publication) and are wondering about the benefits of going down this route, check out the information on our website here.

StemRxiv is associated with StemJournal and both are components parts of StemHub
