      • Provide an email address for the corresponding author (mandatory)
      • Provide the affiliations for all authors with department name, [division], institution/affiliated university, city, country
        • Example: Sport Cancer Laboratory EA4670, Luminy Campus, Aix-Marseille University, Marseille, France.

    • Do not jump levels of headings - e.g. do not include a 3rd level heading right after a 1st level heading
