In short, preprint is a path to the dissemination of knowledge produced by researchers and has not completed the typical flow of publication, but can be valuable to the community, easily discovered and accessed and cited().
In 1991, the area of Physics, and later other disciplines, including Mathematics, Computer Science and Quantitative Biology, began the tradition of making preprints available through the arXiv repository, which currently contains more than 1 million preprints. The availability of preprints in the area of Biomedicine has gained significant attention from the scientific community recently and has led to the formation of a scientist-led effort, ASAPbio, to promote its use. As a result of the ASAPbio meeting, held in February 2016, ten simple rules were pointed out to consider the use of preprint as a communication mechanism(). They are:
