If I post my work at PLoS Currents: Influenza, will I still be able to publish it in a peer-reviewed journal?
We expect that the authors of many of the contributions to PLoS Currents: Influenza will ultimately want to publish their work in peer-reviewed journals. Because contributions are not peer-reviewed in depth, PLoS encourages authors to submit their PLoS Currents: Influenza contributions, or work that synthesizes ideas and information from PLoS Currents: Influenza, to one of our peer-reviewed research journals where it will go through our normal peer review process. While we cannot speak for them, we do not expect other publishers to consider a work communicated through PLoS Currents: Influenza to be a “prior publication”, but rather like a presentation at a scientific colloquium (one to which the whole world is invited) .
