‘Preprint first’ publishing at *eLife*

Starting next July, open-access journal *eLife* will review and publish
only papers that have already been posted on a preprint server

such as bioRxiv, medRxiv or arXiv. Other journals use a similar
publish-then-review system, but *eLife *combines this idea with the
conventional journal system by only publishing the manuscripts that pass
its review process. The journal also plans to start posting all of its
peer-review reports on preprint servers, whether or not a paper is accepted
for publication.
