# Welcome to Authorea

Authorea - a leading collaboration platform to write, share and openly research in realtime - allows people to author manuscripts and include rich media, such as data sets, software, source code and videos. The media-rich, data-driven capabilities Authorea make it the perfect platform to create and disseminate a new generation of research articles, which are natively web-based, open, and reproducible. Here is an example of an equation followed by a figure and references.

$\label{eqn:vsup} \frac{V_{\rm sup}^2}{V_{\rm norm}^2} = \bigg[ 1 + \Delta \nu \,\tau \,T^2 \bigg]^{-1} \, .$

Symptoms of foliar nematodes on chrysanthemum. Foliar nematodes have relatively short life cycles going from egg to adult in approximately 2 weeks. Females can produce large numbers of eggs, so symptoms can occur and spread fairly rapidly. For a literature review, cf. Small worms big ideas: evolutionary inferences from nematode DNA. (Bik 2009)
