# How to Use the Cureus Template | A Step-by-Step Guide

Authored by [Sumalatha Gangadhar](https://scispace.com/resources/author/sumalatha/) | Published on 18 May, 2026

The Cureus Template is the entry-level guide to Cureus (Springer Nature)'s manuscript preparation across its journal portfolio. Cureus (Springer Nature)'s author rules vary by journal, but a shared template, BibTeX style, and submission portal cover most of the workflow. The canonical author hub is the [Cureus (Springer Nature) author services / author hub](https://www.cureus.com/author_guide).

## What is the Cureus Template?

Cureus (Springer Nature) publishes hundreds of peer-reviewed journals across STEM, medicine, social sciences, and humanities. Manuscript preparation follows publisher-level conventions (title block, abstract, references) layered with journal-specific rules. The full journal list is on the [Cureus (Springer Nature) journal portfolio / list](https://www.cureus.com/articles).

### A standard Cureus (Springer Nature) template usually includes:

- Title block with author affiliations, corresponding-author email, ORCID iDs
- Abstract (length per journal — typically 150–300 words on Cureus (Springer Nature) journals)
- Keywords (3–6 terms)
- Body sections matched to the journal article type
- References in the journal-specific Cureus (Springer Nature) style (numbered or Harvard)
- Figure and table captions, supplementary information cross-references
- Declarations: funding, conflict of interest, ethics, author contributions, data availability

### A strong Cureus (Springer Nature) manuscript prepared with this template should:

- Use Cureus (Springer Nature)'s LaTeX class / Word template — link [Cureus (Springer Nature) LaTeX / Word templates](https://www.cureus.com/templates)
- Pick the right BibTeX style for the journal (numbered vs author-year)
- Add ORCID iDs for every co-author
- Check open-access and APC eligibility — see {a3}
- Submit through the journal's portal (not the publisher home)

## What does this Cureus Template include?

The Cureus Template consolidates Cureus (Springer Nature)'s author hub, template files, journal portfolio, and open-access information. Use the [Cureus (Springer Nature) LaTeX / Word templates](https://www.cureus.com/templates) for layout, the [Cureus (Springer Nature) open access information](https://www.cureus.com/article_processing_charge_apc) for open-access and APC eligibility, and the [Cureus (Springer Nature) submission portal landing](https://www.cureus.com/users/sign_in) for submission routing into the right journal-specific system (Editorial Manager, ScholarOne, or Cureus (Springer Nature)'s own portal).

## Steps to Use the Cureus Template with Scispace Agent

1. Click **Start Writing** on this template page. You are redirected to the Scispace Agent prompt page with this Cureus Template and a starter prompt already loaded.
2. On the prompt page, choose whether to **use the existing template** shown in the side panel or **upload a new template** if you already have a venue- or program-specific copy.
3. **Modify the prompt** with your custom message: the topic, target Cureus (Springer Nature) journal, article type, scope, and any specific constraints (word limit, reference style, structured abstract).
4. Run the prompt. Scispace Agent generates the draft directly in the Cureus Template structure — title block, abstract, keywords, body, figure/table placeholders, references in the target journal's style, and declarations — without hand-editing layout code.
5. Use **View Outputs** to review the draft. Regenerate specific sections if the first pass needs tightening on depth, evidence, or wording.
6. When the draft is ready, **save it to your library** inside Scispace Agent or **download it in Word or LaTeX format** so it drops straight into your submission workflow.

This keeps Cureus (Springer Nature) formatting and submission rules on the Scispace Agent side while you focus on the contribution.

## Cureus Template Structure at a Glance

| Element | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Title / Authors | Title, affiliations, ORCID iDs |
| Abstract | 150–300 words per Cureus (Springer Nature) journal |
| Keywords | 3–6 terms |
| Body | Numbered or unnumbered headings per the journal |
| References | Journal-specific Cureus (Springer Nature) style |
| Figures / Tables | Captioned, in-text numbered |
| Declarations | Funding, conflict of interest, contributions, data availability |
| Submission | Journal-specific portal under Cureus (Springer Nature) |

## Quick Tips for Using the Cureus Template

- Pick the target Cureus (Springer Nature) journal first; rules vary per journal
- Use Cureus (Springer Nature)'s LaTeX class or Word template from the author hub
- Match the BibTeX style to the journal's reference format
- Confirm open-access / APC eligibility before paying any fee
- Submit through the journal's portal — not the Cureus (Springer Nature) home page

## Best Practices

- Read 2–3 recent papers from the target Cureus (Springer Nature) journal to match tone and structure
- Pre-register data / post a preprint where the venue allows
- Use ORCID for every co-author; many journals require it
- Provide a complete data-availability statement aligned with publisher policy
- Validate the manuscript against the journal-type word and figure caps

## Cureus Template Tips

The Cureus Template is an orientation guide. Cureus (Springer Nature)'s LaTeX/Word templates and BibTeX styles solve layout; the target journal's submission page solves the rest. Lock the target journal before drafting at length.

Use this Cureus Template to orient Cureus (Springer Nature) manuscript preparation: pick the target journal, download the right LaTeX/Word template, match the reference style, and submit through the journal portal — no Overleaf or generic article class needed.
