How to Manage Rejected Scientific Papers? UNAIS as Final Solution
Abstract
Before publication, biomedical papers might undergo a very complex process, from journal selection, authors’ motivations for submissions, modifications, and final publication or refusal. UNAIS (Unpublished Articles In Science) is an online repository in which authors can publish previously rejected scientific articles or articles that have never been submitted for publication. At UNAIS, authors can also publish the reasons behind the refusals to publication. UNAIS is more than an e-journal: it is a scientific drop box in which scientists can find indicative and negative results, as well as ideas that can inspire others. UNAIS’s goal is also to help students and scientists who want to learn how to write scientific articles. UNAIS’ aim is to exchange and promote knowledge. Have a look on www.unais.net.
