Unless participants prefer and let us know otherwise, WPS participants whose projects are accepted for supervision will be given a slot to publish their working papers with the CoronaNet Research Project. This means that each participant's (or team's) working paper will be formatted using the CoronaNet WPS template, released for public view and download on the CoronaNet public website, and featured on the PERISCOPE Consortium's website. PERISCOPE is the research consortium that the CoronaNet Research Project is a part of and it houses 32 institutions.
WPS participants are very welcome to look for other avenues to publish their research, and supervision on the writing process will still be provided for participants who take this route. However, we will not be able to direct participants to specific platforms (e.g. a particular journal) or guarantee that the manuscript will be accepted.
