Submission Guidelines

All interviews for the profile section are completed by Libris Ignis staff. If you feel that your work could be interesting to the general public, please reach out to us. We would like to get to know you better. Or, if you have a colleague who is doing some interesting work, let us know.

We are also interested in short theory discussions where academics summarise their key findings into a short article. For instance, if you are an expert in nuclear fission, then write us a short article about the field and your contributions with links to your papers. It is important though that these submissions are written in an accessible way. A high-school student must be able to understand it. You are also welcome to submit podcasts, videos, or posters/infographics.

Currently, we only accept submissions that focus on science, technology, engineering, and medicine. This includes, but is not limited to: chemistry, physics, astronomy, biology, neuroscience, pharmaceuticals, data science, programming, and the various types of engineering.

Our AI and plagiarism policy

Even though we take great care in avoiding AI-generated materials, we cannot guarantee that such materials will not find their way on our website. In cases where AI materials slip through, the authors will be liable, and they will be obligated to refund all funds paid to them. We consider AI-generated articles as fraud since such a submission was most likely submitted misleadingly or dishonestly. Such articles tend to be misrepresented as original work or involve unethical practices like plagiarism, misleading authorship, or a misrepresentation of research. Legal action will be taken against authors who are found guilty of submitting AI-generated articles where Libris Ignis can prove a loss of income or reputation damage to the Libris Ignis brand.
