Feedback

  • However - just a note about pre-prints. A significant portion of scientists that I collaborate with feel uncomfortable submitting manuscript on a pre-print server. Is this something that could be addressed maybe in an article regarding the benefits and nuances of pre-print server submission.

Re: MitoFit_Preprint_Archives
Dear coauthors,
We thank you for the feedback received to our previous circular. Here is the summary of ### answers to the three questions on preprints, which encourages us to proceed with MitoFit Preprint Archives:
» Summary on preprint questionnaire
The Scientific Advisory Board has expanded. Again we extend our invitation to join the editorial team. In particular, we would like to establish a Member Advisory Board including scientific organizations and journals which support the concept of MitoFit Preprint Archives. If you are involved in such an organization, please let us know if joining the 'Member Advisory Board' might be an option for your organization.
Information on next steps for our manuscript on 'Mitochondrial respiratory states and rates' will follow soon.
Kind regards,
Erich

2019-02-12 Circular to coauthors

Dear coauthors,
The MitoEAGLE manuscript on ‘Mitochondrial respiratory states and rates’ is now published in MitoFit Preprint Archives as a preprint citable with DOI number with 530 coauthors. The next step will be journal submission:
» http://wiki.oroboros.at/index.php/MitoFit_Preprint_Arch
Why a new preprint server MitoFit Preprint Arch? – On 2018-12-12 the MitoEAGLE manuscript was submitted to the preprint server www.biorxiv.org/. We are amazed that our manuscript was not accepted:
» http://www.mitoeagle.org/index.php/Talk:MitoEAGLE_preprint_States_and_rates#BIORXIV
Instead of starting a debate with bioRxiv we started MitoFit Preprint Archives - the Open Access preprint server for mitochondrial physiology
The first DOI number was allocated to our MitoEAGLE manuscript.
Your opinion means a lot to us. Therefore we would like to ask you:
  1. Are you familiar with the concepts of preprints? Y / N
  2. Will you consider to submit a manuscript to MitoFit Preprint Archives for publication as a preprint? Y / N
  3. Which alternative preprint server do you prefer? ___________
The results of this questionnaire will be summarized anonymously on our website (beginning of March).
We thank you for answering these questions in advance and are looking forward to your feedback. In particular, do you have further suggestions for our first journal choice for submission of our manuscript (Cell Metabolism)?
In the spirit of the bottom-up approach of MitoEAGLE, this is an invitation to join the editorial team (Scientific Advisory Board) of MitoFit Preprint Archives.
Best regards,
Erich Gnaiger
