An email will be sent to verify your email address. Use the link in the email to verify and complete the merging of your accounts.


If you can no longer receive emails at your email address, please contact us so our team can assist you with this account merge.


Once this merge is completed, any preprints associated with both accounts will appear in the author list for the selected account.
