% See accompanying readme.txt for copyright statement, change log etc.
% Any modification of this template, including writing a paper using it,
% MUST rename the file i.e. use a different file name.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% START OF PREAMBLE %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Basic setup. Authors shouldn't need to adjust these commands.
% It's annoying, but please do NOT strip these into a separate file.
% They need to be included in this .tex for our production software to work.
% Use the basic LaTeX article class, 12pt text
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
% Science uses Times font. If you don't have this installed (most LaTeX installations will be
% fine) or prefer the old Computer Modern fonts, comment out the following line
\usepackage{newtxtext,newtxmath}
% Depending on your LaTeX fonts installation, you might get better results with one or both of these:
%\usepackage{mathptmx}
%\usepackage{txfonts}
% Allow external graphics files
\usepackage{graphicx}
% Use US letter sized paper with 1 inch margins
\usepackage[letterpaper,margin=1in]{geometry}
% Double line spacing, including in captions
\linespread{1.5} % For some reason double spacing is 1.5, not 2.0!
% One space after each sentence
\frenchspacing
% Abstract formatting and spacing - no heading
\renewenvironment{abstract}
{\quotation}
{\endquotation}
% No date in the title section
\date{}
% Reference section heading
\renewcommand\refname{References and Notes}
% Figure and Table labels in bold
\makeatletter
\renewcommand{\fnum@figure}{\textbf{Figure \thefigure}}
\renewcommand{\fnum@table}{\textbf{Table \thetable}}
\makeatother
% Call the accompanying scicite.sty package.
% This formats citation numbers in Science style.
\usepackage{scicite}
% Provides the \url command, and fixes a crash if URLs or DOIs contain underscores
\usepackage{url}
%%%%%%%%%%%% CUSTOM COMMANDS AND PACKAGES %%%%%%%%%%%%
% Authors can define simple custom commands e.g. as shortcuts to save on typing
% Use \newcommand (not \def) to avoid overwriting existing commands.
% Keep them as simple as possible and note the warning in the text below.
% Example:
\newcommand{\pcc}{\,cm$^{-3}$} % per cm-cubed
% Please DO NOT import additional external packages or .sty files.
% Those are unlikely to work with our conversion software and will cause problems later.
% Don't add any more \usepackage{} commands.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% TITLE AND AUTHORS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Title of the paper.
% Keep it short and understandable by any reader of Science.
% Avoid acronyms or jargon. Use sentence case.
\def\scititle{
A simple \textit{Science} \LaTeX\ template
}
% Store the title in a variable for reuse in the supplement (otherwise \maketitle deletes it)
\title{\bfseries \boldmath \scititle}
% Author and institution list.
% Institution numbers etc. should be hard-coded, do *not* use the \footnote command.
\author{
% You can write out first names or use initials - either way is acceptable, but be consistent
First~Author$^{1\ast\dagger}$,
A.~Scientist$^{2\dagger}$,
Someone~E.~Else$^{2}$\and
% Additional lines of authors should be inserted using the \and command (not \\)
% Institution list, in a slightly smaller font
\small$^{1}$Department, Institution, City \& Postal Code, Country.\and
\small$^{2}$Another Department, Different Institution, City \& Postal Code, Country.\and
% Identify at least one corresponding author, with contact email address
\small$^\ast$Corresponding author. Email: example@mail.com\and
% Joint contributions can be indicated like this
\small$^\dagger$These authors contributed equally to this work.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% END OF PREAMBLE %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% START OF MAIN TEXT %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\begin{document}
% Insert the title and author list
\maketitle
% Abstract, in bold
% There are strict length limits, and not all formats have abstracts.
% Consult the journal instructions to authors for details.
% Do not cite any references in the abstract.
\begin{abstract} \bfseries \boldmath
% Start with one or two sentences of background
This is a simple template to prepare papers in \LaTeX\ for the \textit{Science}-family journals.
Abstracts start with one or two sentences of background, which should be
comprehensible to any scientist.
% Then summarise the results of your observations, experiments, simulations etc.
The following text should outline the main results of the research.
Simple mathematical expressions can be included e.g. $a^2+b^2=c^2$.
% End with a statement of your main conclusions
The final sentence of the abstract should state the main conclusions and implications.
\end{abstract}
% The first paragraph of any Science paper does NOT have a heading
% Nor is it indented
\noindent
The main text should begin with a brief introduction to the topic, at a level which is understandable by
scientists in adjacent disciplines. Provide enough information to put your work in context,
but do not attempt a comprehensive review.
General guidance on \LaTeX:
The \textit{Science}-family journals accept papers written in \LaTeX, but they are a minority
of the submissions we receive. Our production department does not handle \LaTeX\ directly,
instead we use conversion software to automatically process the .tex file into a format they
can use. That works well \textit{provided the .tex file is straightforward}. Keep it simple
and follow this template. Don't import additional packages or define complex new commands.
Figures and tables:
These should be inserted at the end of the main text, as below (not in the middle of the text).
Refer to them using e.g.~Figure~\ref{fig:example} (or Fig.~\ref{fig:example}) and Table~\ref{tab:example}.
Citing references:
Science uses a numeric citation system. Cite references by number e.g.~\cite{example}.
The template will combine reference numbers automatically~\cite{example,example2},
including ranges~\cite{example,example2, example_preprint}.
Reference author names and years should be stated in the reference list, not in the text.
If you want to add a comment, use the syntax [see \cite{example} for details].
% Not \cite[see][for details]{example}. Unfortunately that isn't compatible with scicite.sty
Referring to supplementary material:
Whenever more details are given in the Materials and Methods section, cite an entry in
the reference list that directs readers there, like this~\cite{methods}.
To refer to material in the Supplementary Text section, just write (Supplementary Text).
See guidance below for the difference between those two types of supplementary material.
Supplementary figures and tables are referred to in lowercase
e.g.~figure~\ref{fig:sup_example} or table~\ref{tab:sup_example}.
Material in separate files needs to be hand coded e.g.~data~S1, movie~S2.
Mathematics:
Simple mathematical expressions can be inserted in the text like $2\times3=6$.
Variables should be italic but textual labels are roman e.g.~$T_\text{max}$.
Explain the meaning of all variables on their first appearance.
More complicated expressions should be entered as numbered equations, such as
\begin{equation}
x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}.
\label{eq:example} % Use a logical label
\end{equation}
\noindent\ Do not indent text immediately after an equation.
They can be referred back to as e.g.~Equation~\ref{eq:example}.
Formatting:
Names of software packages should be set in small capitals e.g.~\textsc{NumPy}.
Use a non-breaking space between a number and its unit e.g.~7.4~km,
and thin spaces between different parts of a unit e.g.~12~m\,s$^{-1}$.
Use $\pm$ (not parentheses) to indicate uncertainties e.g.~$g=9.8\pm0.2$~m\,s$^{-2}$.
% Research Articles and Reviews split the text into sections using headings
% Use a short (up 6 words) descriptive phrase, not generic 'Results' or 'Conclusions'
% Most other formats do not have headings, see the journal instructions to authors for details
\subsection*{An example heading}
Research Articles and Reviews use headings to split the main text into sections;
most other formats do not have headings.
Length limits:
The \textit{Science}-family journals impose limits on the number of words, figures\slash
tables, and references cited in the main text.
The limits vary between the journals and article types.
Refer to the instructions to authors on the journal website for the current limits.
% If your text is very short you might need to uncomment the following line to avoid
% layout problems with the figures and tables.
%\newpage
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% MAIN TEXT FIGURES %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\begin{figure} % Do NOT use \begin{figure*}
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.6\textwidth]{example_figure} % for an image file named example_figure.*
% Pick an appropriate width - in print, figures are usually one or two columns wide, which can
% be approximated by 0.3\textwidth or 0.6\textwidth respectively. Use appropriate label sizes.
% Captions go below figures
\caption{\textbf{All captions must start with a short bold sentence, acting as a title.}
Then explain what is being shown, the meanings of any line styles, plotting symbols etc.
Multi-panel figures must label the panels A, B, C, etc. and refer to them in the caption
like this: (\textbf{A}) Description of panel A. (\textbf{B}) Description of panel B.
Captions are placed below figures.}
\label{fig:example} % give each figure a logical label name
\end{figure}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% MAIN TEXT TABLES %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\begin{table} % Do NOT use \begin{table*}
\centering
% Captions go above tables
\caption{\textbf{All captions must start with a short bold sentence, acting as a title.}
Then explain what is being listed in the table, the meaning of each column etc.
Captions are placed above tables.}
\label{tab:example} % give each table a logical label name
\begin{tabular}{lccc} % four columns, alignment for each
\\
\hline
Sample & $A$ & $B$ & $C$\\
& (unit) & (unit) & (unit)\\
\hline
First & 1 & 2 & 3\\
Second & 4 & 6 & 8\\
Third & 5 & 7 & 9\\
\hline
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% REFERENCES %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\clearpage % Clear all remaining figures and tables then start a new page
% The list of references goes after the main text and before the acknowledgements
% When preparing an initial submission, we recommend you use BibTeX, like this:
%
\bibliography{science_template} % for a file named science_template.bib
\bibliographystyle{sciencemag}
% After the paper has completed peer review and been revised ready for acceptance,
% you should comment out the lines above and copy-paste the contents of your .bbl
% file here instead. This will help ensure that our conversion software works correctly.
% Remember to re-run BibTeX first - check the timestamp!
%
% Example of the first three entries copy-pasted from science_template.bbl:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section*{Acknowledgments}
Here you can thank helpful colleagues who did not meet the journal's authorship criteria, or
provide other acknowledgements that don't fit the (compulsory) subheadings below.
Formatting requirements for each of these sections differ between the \textit{Science}-family
journals; consult the instructions to authors on the journal website for full details.
\paragraph*{Funding:}
List the grants, fellowships etc. that funded the research;
use initials to specify which author(s) were supported by each source.
Include grant numbers when appropriate or required by the funding agency.
For example: F.~A. was funded by the Generous Science Agency grant~2372.
\paragraph*{Author contributions:}
List each author’s contributions to the paper.
Use initials to abbreviate author names.
\paragraph*{Competing interests:}
Disclose any potential conflicts of interest for all authors, such as patent applications,
additional affiliations, consultancies, financial relationships etc.
See the journal editorial policies web page for types of competing interest that must be declared.
If there are no competing interests, state:
``There are no competing interests to declare.''
\paragraph*{Data and materials availability:}
Specify where the data, software, physical samples, simulation outputs or other materials
underlying the paper are archived.
They must be publicly accessible when the paper is published (without embargo) and enable
readers to reproduce all the results in the paper.
Contact the editor if you’re unsure what needs to be shared.
Our preference is for digital material to be deposited in a suitable non-profit online data or
software repository that issues the material with a DOI.
Alternatively, an institutional repository, subject-based archive, commercial repository etc.
is acceptable, as are (short) supplementary tables or a machine-readable supplementary data file.
‘Available on request’ or personal web pages are not allowed.
Cite the relevant DOI \cite{dataset}, URL \cite{example_url} or reference \cite{example2}
in this statement.
These \textit{do not} count towards the reference limit if they are only cited in the acknowledgements.
Be specific and state a unique identifier -- such as an accession number, software version number
or observation ID -- so readers can easily retrieve the exact material used.
Declare any restrictions on sharing or re-use -- such as a Materials Transfer Agreement (MTA) or
legal restrictions -- which must be approved by your editor.
Unreasonable restrictions will preclude publication.
Consult the journal's editorial policies web page for more details.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% SUPPLEMENT LIST %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% MATERIALS AND METHODS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\subsection*{Materials and Methods}
The Materials and Methods section should contain details of the samples measured,
experiments performed, observations taken, simulations run, data analysis, statistical methods etc.
Give enough detail for any competent researcher in your field to fully reproduce the results.
To refer to this section from the main text, use the numbered note in the reference list \cite{methods}.
Refer to figures and tables in the same way as in the main text but now all capitalized e.g.
Fig.~\ref{fig:example}, Table~\ref{tab:example},
Fig.~\ref{fig:sup_example} and Table~\ref{tab:sup_example}.
Cite references in the usual way \cite{example2},
including any that are only cited in the supplement \cite{sm_example,conference_example}.
The numbering of figures, tables, equations and pages has been reset to start from S1, as in
\begin{equation}
\cos(2\theta) = \cos^2\theta - \sin^2\theta.
\label{eq:sup_example} % Use a logical label
\end{equation}
\subsubsection*{Example supplement heading}
The two main sections of the supplement can be split up using headings.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% SUPPLEMENTARY TEXT %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\subsection*{Supplementary Text}
The Supplementary Text section can only be used to directly support statements made in the main text
e.g. to present more detailed justifications of assumptions, investigate alternative scenarios,
provide extended acknowledgements etc.
Material in this section cannot claim results or conclusions that weren't mentioned in the main text.
To refer to this section from the main text, just write (Supplementary Text).
\subsubsection*{Example supplement heading}
The two main sections of the supplement can be split up using headings.
% If your supplement is very short you might need to uncomment the following line to avoid
% layout problems with the figures and tables.

% Pick an appriopriate width for the size of the image
% Captions go below figures
\caption{\textbf{All captions must start with a short bold sentence, acting as a title.}
Follow the same style as main text figures.
If the design is substantially the same as another figure, avoid repeating information
e.g. say `Same as Figure~\ref{fig:example}, but for the control sample.'}
\label{fig:sup_example} % give each figure a logical label name
\end{figure}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% SUPPLEMENTARY TABLES %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\begin{table} % Do not use \begin{table*}
\centering
% Captions go above tables
\caption{\textbf{All captions must start with a short bold sentence, acting as a title.}

Then explain what is shown in the supplementary video file.
Give as much detail as you would for a figure e.g. explain axes, color maps etc.
If the video is an animated equivalent of one of the static figures, state e.g.
`Animated version of Figure~\ref{fig:example}.'
\paragraph{Caption for Data S1.}
\textbf{All captions must start with a short bold sentence, acting as a title.}
Then explain what is included in the supplementary data file.
Give as much detail as you would for a table e.g. explain the meaning of every column,
units used, any special notation etc.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% SUPPLEMENTARY REFERENCES %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
% Do NOT include a reference list in the supplement.
% All references must be in a single list at the end of the main text.
