LTS Preprint Server: Empowering every scientific discovery to be trusted and shared.

Newly launched in November 2025, LTS Preprint Server is a scientist-led open science platform jointly developed by the Shenzhen Medical Academy of Research and Translation (SMART) together with research teams from Tsinghua University, Westlake University, and other leading institutions. The platform aims to provide researchers in the life sciences and related fields with an efficient, reliable, and open space for academic communication and knowledge sharing. It enables rapid dissemination and real-time discussion of research findings, encouraging scientists to share their progress prior to formal peer review and fostering broader scientific exchange and collaboration.

As one of the first preprint platforms to adopt blockchain technology, LTS Preprint Server assigns each submission a unique timestamp and encrypted record, ensuring full traceability and content integrity throughout the research lifecycle. Moving forward, LTS Preprint Server will continue to refine its workflow and incorporate AI-powered tools for manuscript screening, reviewer recommendations, and research profiling, further enhancing the efficiency, transparency, and impact of scientific communication.
