Overleaf and Oxford University Press in a New Partnership

Today, our portfolio company Overleaf is excited to announce a new partnership with Oxford University Press (OUP).  OUP is a department of the University of Oxford. It furthers the University’s objective of excellence in research, scholarship, and education by publishing worldwide. Through this partnership, authors submitting to OUP’s Biostatistics journal will have access to the Overleaf collaborative cloud-based writing and reviewing tool.

The whole authoring and submission process for OUP’s Biostatistics journal has now been simplified – authors can open the Biostatistics journal template in Overleaf via links in Biostatistics author guidelines or from within the Overleaf platform. Authors can immediately begin to write and/or collaborate with other authors using LaTeX source-code or Rich Text mode, per the author’s preference.  Once the article is complete, a simple 1-click submission link is available within the authoring template, which will submit all files and necessary meta-data seamlessly to Biostatistics.  The ability to easily open the Biostatistics template, write in the correct journal format, collaborate, and submit to the journal with 1-click is a clear win for authors.

John Hammersley, Founder & CEO of Overleaf says:

“We’re very excited to be working with OUP and Biostatistics. Their excitement and forward thinking attitude to provide enhanced and simplified services for their authors make them a perfect partner.”

Jeffrey Leek co-editor of Biostatistics says:

“We are incredibly excited to work with Overleaf to streamline the submission process for authors at Biostatistics. As a heavy user of Overleaf I consider the eased submission process a killer feature and I’m looking forward to introducing our authors to the simplified process.”
