Submission Guide

Why share your preprint on eiRxiv?

Through the scientific review process, eiRxiv connects pre-college students, who are 13 years of age or older, with PhD candidates and advanced investigators who work in university research laboratories. By submitting your draft to the eiRxiv preprint server,  student-authors will learn the scientific method, practice communicating their science, and be recognized as young emerging scientists.


These pages will guide you through the entire process, from initial submission all the way to receiving your review. Take some time to review all of the steps before submitting, and feel free to come back throughout the process to avoid delays in your submission being visible on the preprint server.

Requirements for Submissions

In order for your submission to pass pre-review and enter the scientific review process, it must meet the following requirements:

  • The person submitting the manuscript must be an adult mentor as outlined in our author eligibility requirements.
  • The manuscript must be submitted using our manuscript template, following the instructions in the document correctly.
  • If the study involves human subjects or vertebrate animals, documentation of regulatory approval must be included in the submission.
  • The manuscript must appropriately cite any outside sources of information, data, or software according to our reference formatting guidelines.

Meeting these requirements does not guarantee acceptance of your manuscript. Utilizing the information contained in the submission guide below while preparing your submission will help streamline the review process in avoiding commonly made mistakes.
