Yes. We encourage all authors to include their data and code as part of our commitment to open science. You can include any supplementary information that is important for your research.
What fields of research can I publish?
The Stacks is an interdisciplinary journal. We publish all fields of science.
What sections does my article need?
Articles in The Stacks have the same elements as a standard scientific paper:
-
- Title
- Author list (including identifying the corresponding author, up-to-date affiliations, email addresses, and contributions to the article using a CRediT author statement)
- Keywords: 5-7 words or phrases (These identify the areas of expertise needed to peer review your work)
- Abstract and abstract image
- Introduction
- Materials and Methods (including approvals from institutional review boards)
- Results
- Discussion
- Figures & Tables (These can be placed anywhere throughout the article. Each item should include Alternative text to assist readers with disabilities.)
- Acknowledgments
- References (formatted with the Chicago Style Manual citation style. In-line citations should also be used within the article)
- Funding information
- Data Availability Statement (Indicate where your data & code will be made available or why you cannot post it publicly)
- Conflicts of interest (If no conflicts of interest are present in the submission, authors can report: “The authors declare no conflicts of interest.”)
- Supplemental information

Can my submission be desk rejected?
Sometimes. We will not desk reject an article based on its novelty or potential impact. However, we will desk reject articles that are not ready for peer review because they lack the elements of a scientific paper.
What is your policy for plagiarism and unethical behavior?
Reviewers are required to identify any connections or interests that could be interpreted as bias in their work or influence their ability to provide an impartial peer review.
If you believe an article or submission is in violation of this policy, please contact us.
