bioRxiv (pronounced "bio-archive"[1][2]) is an open access preprint repository for the biological sciences co-founded by John Inglis and Richard Sever in November 2013.[3][4] It is hosted by the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL).[5]

As preprints, papers hosted on bioRxiv are not peer-reviewed, but undergo basic screening and checked against plagiarism. However, peer reviews from other sources may be posted alongside preprints. Moreover, readers may post comments.

It has been measured that two thirds of the papers posted in bioRxiv are later published in peer-reviewed journals.[6] BioRxiv, and its sister site, medRxiv, have been major sources for the dissemination of COVID-19 research.[7][8]
