Our Mission
At Preprint Central, our mission is to accelerate scientific discovery by providing a free, open-access platform for researchers to share their findings with the world. We aim to create a space where academics, innovators, and scientists can collaborate, exchange ideas, and receive valuable feedback — all before the formal peer review process.
Our initiative is proudly supported by OPAST Group, a leader in open-access publishing. Their backing allows us to provide a trusted and high-quality platform for researchers around the globe.
We believe that rapid dissemination of research is crucial for solving global challenges and advancing knowledge in every field. Preprints allow researchers to share their work quickly, with no barriers to access, and get feedback that can improve the quality of their research.
Our Vision
Preprint Central envisions a future where all scientific work is shared openly, accessible to everyone, and can be discussed and reviewed before formal publication. We aim to be a central hub for preprints, helping to empower researchers, foster collaboration, and speed up the progress of science and innovation.
What Are Preprints?
Preprints are early versions of research papers made publicly available before they undergo formal peer review. By uploading your preprint to Preprint Central, you allow the academic community to engage with your research early on, providing feedback and encouraging collaboration.
Why Preprints Matter?
Preprints offer several key benefits to both researchers and the scientific community:
- Faster Dissemination: Researchers can share their findings immediately with the world, without waiting for the lengthy peer review process.
- Global Exposure: Preprints are accessible to anyone with an internet connection, increasing the visibility and impact of your work.
- Early Feedback: Researchers can receive constructive feedback and comments from peers that can help improve their research.
- Collaboration Opportunities: By sharing your work early, you open the door to collaboration with researchers worldwide.
- Preservation of Academic Integrity: Preprints establish the public record of your work, ensuring that your ideas are credited even before formal publication.
