Criteria for Publication

Our goal is to publish research done well. This means we look for research that adds to the academic record, either as novel or corroborative evidence, and adheres to ethical standards, uses robust methodologies that are transparent and reproducible, and uses appropriate statistical analyses to ensure clear, credible, and trustworthy results. Science Progress evaluates manuscripts based on how the research was conducted and reported.

  • All manuscripts:
    • must comply with the Helsinki Declaration of 1975 and EQUATOR Network reporting guidelines (e.g. CONSORT for randomized, controlled trials, PRISMA for systematic reviews/meta-analyses, STROBE for most observational studies, ARRIVE for animal studies and CARE for case reports and case series). 
    • are subject to single-blind peer review (comments from at least two external peer reviewers).
    • must follow our publishing policies.

Scope

The Editors are looking for scientific research, suitable for a global audience, which falls into one of our 10 subject areas, that adds to the existing literature either as novel or corroborative evidence. We will consider replication studies and negative/null results studies.

We welcome manuscripts across the main scientific areas: Agricultural Science, Applied Mathematics, Biology & Life Sciences, Chemistry, Computer & Information Sciences, Earth Sciences, Ecology & Environmental Sciences, Engineering & Technology, Medicine & Health Sciences, Physics, Science Policy.

We publish original clinical research (randomized controlled trials, observational studies) and preclinical research (in vitro studies, animal studies, in silico studies), systematic reviews and meta-analyses, narrative reviews, and case reports/series.

We do not publish the following research:
