This repository provides LaTeX templates to prepare articles for LiveCoMS. Our templates are adapted from the eLife Overleaf templates (v1.4; obtained 8/10/2017).
The templates
directory provides our template files, including a LaTeX template .tex
(which itself provides an example, including text and figures) for each article type, a bibliography style file (livecoms-vancouver.bst
), and a class file (livecoms.cls
).
