Author guidelines

These guidelines describe what is required at submission and how the manuscript is handled afterwards. Reading them beforehand avoids most incomplete-submission returns.

What the submission must contain

  • Title in French and English.
  • Abstract in French and in English, between 100 and 5,000 characters each.
  • Three to eight keywords in each language.
  • The ordered list of authors, with affiliation and email address; exactly one corresponding author.
  • The full manuscript, and an anonymised version without names or affiliations.
  • A conflict-of-interest statement, required even when there is none.
  • Where applicable, funding sources.
  • The originality declaration, to be accepted before transmission.

Accepted formats and sizes

Manuscript: PDF, DOC, DOCX, RTF, ODT or LaTeX, 25 MB maximum. Supplementary files (figures, tables, data): 50 MB maximum. Executable files are refused.

How submission proceeds

  1. 01

    Opening the submission

    You enter the metadata and authors. The submission stays a draft, visible to you alone, for as long as you need.

  2. 02

    Uploading files

    You attach the manuscript and its anonymised version. Re-uploading a file replaces the previous one within the current version.

  3. 03

    Transmission

    On transmission, a permanent public identifier is assigned to your submission, of the form AUK-2026-000001. It never changes.

  4. 04

    Follow-up

    Every step is visible from your author workspace, and the corresponding author is notified of decisions by email.

Revisions

If a revision is requested, you have the period stated in the decision letter to submit a new version. It must come with a summary of changes and a point-by-point response to the reviewers. Previous versions remain preserved exactly as they were read.
