Submitting to Advanced Healthcare Materials goes smoothly when your draft already matches the journal's own rules. Editors screen new manuscripts against the Advanced Healthcare Materials guide for authors before peer review, so formatting, structure, and required statements should be right on the first draft rather than repaired during upload. This template sets that structure up for you.
It is a manuscript shell aligned to Advanced Healthcare Materials. It covers front matter, the abstract the journal expects, a body organized to the journal's article types, and a reference list in the journal's required style. Confirm current scope and article types on the Advanced Healthcare Materials journal page before you draft.
Prepare the title, authors, affiliations, and ORCID iDs. Write the abstract to the journal's rule and word limit, organize the body to the article type, and apply the required reference style from the first citation. Complete every declaration (ethics, competing interests, funding, data availability) the Advanced Healthcare Materials guide for authors lists, and cite figures and tables in order.
The common failure modes are formatting or reference style that does not match the guide for authors, missing required statements, and an incomplete portal checklist. Clear all three against the Advanced Healthcare Materials guide for authors before you submit.
The shell mirrors what editorial staff check first: article-type fit, the abstract rules, required declarations, and the journal's reference style. For more detail see the author resources. When your draft is ready, upload it through ScholarOne / Research Exchange.
| Element | AHM requirement |
|---|---|
| Abstract | Unstructured abstract required. Word limit: 200 words maximum for Research Articles, Reviews, and Perspectives. The abstract should be written in the present tense and impersonal style (avoiding "we"), abbreviations must be defined when first used, and the abstract should not contain any references. Communications and Full Papers require a "short abstract" (no specific word limit stated in current guidelines). |
| Main text | Section order and length per article type |
| Declarations | Ethics, competing interests, funding, data as required |
| Figures/tables | Publication-ready; cited in order |
| Supplemental | Upload separately when used |
| Keywords | 3 to 7 keywords required for Research Articles, Reviews, and Perspectives. Communications require a maximum of 5 keywords (per PDF guide). Full Papers require a maximum of 5 keywords (per PDF guide). |
| References | Numbered citations (inline square brackets) within the text, references numbered in the order of their citation. Journal titles should be abbreviated in accordance with the "Chemical Abstracts Service Source Index" (CASSI) and italicized. There is no submission requirement for formatting references at initial submission; if the manuscript is accepted for publication, the typesetters will update the formatting into the journal style. Style similar to Wiley-VCH/Angewandte Chemie format with numbered references. |
| Peer review | Single-blind / single-anonymous. Potential reviewers are selected based on many factors, including expertise, reputation, specific recommendations by the authors or other reviewers, and previous experience. Referees' identities are not released to authors or to other reviewers unless a referee voluntarily signs their comments. |

Read the Advanced Healthcare Materials guide for authors once before drafting and once before upload. Draft the abstract after results are stable. Set the reference style before adding citations. Keep a cover letter that states your contribution and fit to Advanced Healthcare Materials in under a page.
Skim two or three recent AHM papers to calibrate depth and figure style. Make the novelty clear in the first two pages. Deposit data and code when the policy on the Advanced Healthcare Materials journal page requires it. Disclose any preprint or conference version with identifiers in the cover letter.
Do one focused pass against the Advanced Healthcare Materials guide for authors: scope, length, reference style, required declarations, and figure quality. Then submit through ScholarOne / Research Exchange.
