Smaller early-career research projects (including undergraduate and Master’s dissertations, early PhD work, etc.) can provide novel insight into underexplored areas but often do not progress to publication due to their limited scope and length. At BioShorts, we recognise the scientific value of such work and provide a dedicated platform for its dissemination. We primarily work with early-career researchers (typically with fewer than five publications), supporting the development of short-format manuscripts (2–6 pages) through professional editing and the coordination of peer review by subject specialists.

BioShorts has the infrastructure to develop and adapt a range of research outputs into finalised manuscripts, including the conversion of undergraduate and Master’s dissertations into publishable short-format articles, provided the work demonstrates novelty and scholarly relevance. Submissions may range from ‘raw’ dissertations or technical reports to already developed manuscripts . For further information, please feel free to contact us here.
