bioRxiv vs Open Research Knowledge Graph

bioRxiv is a free online archive and distribution service for unpublished life-sciences preprints. Researchers can post findings for immediate availability and receive feedback before journal submission. It accepts research across areas such as genetics, neuroscience, ecology, and bioinformatics. Before posting, submissions receive completeness and scope checks, automated analyses for possible plagiarism or prior online posting, and review by volunteer Affiliates for biological relevance and potential public harm. Screening usually takes 24–48 hours, with longer waits possible during weekends, holidays, or further discussion. Articles are not peer-reviewed, edited, or typeset before posting, and publication does not endorse scientific quality. Research articles must contain data; narrative reviews, commentaries, opinion pieces, and step-by-step protocols are not accepted. Authors may revise until formal journal acceptance, but posted articles cannot be removed. The service provides public comments, B2J journal transfer, APIs, RSS metadata, and bulk full text for text and data mining.
