FlyBase:Fast-Track Your Paper
Fast-Track Your Paper
Overview
The Fast-Track Your Paper (FTYP) tool allows first-pass curation by users, indicating to curators the types of data in the paper and also resulting in relevant genes being associated with the reference. Corresponding authors of new publications are emailed and asked to use FTYP when their paper has been fully published (i.e. has final volume and page numbers) and has been added to our database. The Fast-Track Your Paper tool may also be accessed via the ‘Tools’ menu in the navigation bar present on all FlyBase pages.
Quick instructions
1. Authors coming to FTYP from an email to alert them about their publication will not need to complete this Publication step, as their paper will already have been selected. Otherwise, users may search for a particular publication using keywords.
2. Publications available for the FTYP process are in blue (papers) or gold (reviews). Those papers that have already been curated appear in grey and are not selectable.
