For repeat publishing lookups
A smaller reference shelf for recurring biomedical publishing questions
Use this page when you already know the type of reference you need: a benchmark, policy guide, template, or checklist you return to across several submissions.
For a first-time or less defined question, start with the task finder instead. It will point you to one useful place rather than asking you to browse a reference shelf.

Start with the few reference assets most authors actually need
These are the strongest entry points in the library: one for the final pass, one for editorial triage risk, one for journal choice, and one for timing.
Research Manuscript Submission Checklist
A free, multidisciplinary 42-point checklist with direct PDF and DOCX downloads, primary-source links, and open reuse terms.
Desk Rejection Report
A canonical desk-rejection report that organizes the most common editorial failure modes, what they look like, and how to prevent them.
Journal Intelligence Dataset
A canonical journal dataset that combines selectivity posture, review timing, submission requirements, and Manusights fit signals in one citeable reference asset.
Peer Review Timelines by Journal
Reference-grade journal timeline data that authors, labs, and writing centers can cite when discussing realistic review timing.
Additional journal benchmarks
Use these alongside the flagship journal assets when you need a specific comparison table for selectivity or manuscript specifications.
Policies, compliance, and rights
Use these when the question is less about journal fit and more about what the paper is allowed to do after publication or what policies the manuscript must satisfy.
Open Access Publishing in Biomedicine
APCs, funder mandates, waiver patterns, and journal-level open-access context.
Rights guideAuthor Rights and Copyright
A practical guide to what authors keep, transfer, or license after publication.
Compliance guideData Sharing Requirements
NIH and funder expectations, repository choices, and journal-facing data-availability obligations.
Templates, checklists, and reporting support
Reusable assets that make manuscript prep faster: submission templates, pre-flight checks, and reporting standards.
Use this page as the stable index
If you want the broad public resource hub, go to all resources. If you want the institutional packaging of these same assets, go to for libraries. If you want manuscript-specific decision support, go to for authors.
