\section*{Introduction}
The Introduction section, of referenced text\cite{Figueredo:2009dg} expands on the background of the work (some overlap with the Abstract is acceptable). The introduction should not include subheadings.
\section*{Results}
Up to three levels of \textbf{subheading} are permitted. Subheadings should not be numbered.
\subsection*{Subsection}
Example text under a subsection. Bulleted lists may be used where appropriate, e.g.
\begin{itemize}
\item First item
\item Second item
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection*{Third-level section}
Topical subheadings are allowed.
\section*{Discussion}
The Discussion should be succinct and must not contain subheadings.
\section*{Methods}
Topical subheadings are allowed. Authors must ensure that their Methods section includes adequate experimental and characterization data necessary for others in the field to reproduce their work.
\bibliography{sample}
\noindent LaTeX formats citations and references automatically using the bibliography records in your .bib file, which you can edit via the project menu. Use the cite command for an inline citation, e.g. \cite{Hao:gidmaps:2014}.
For data citations of datasets uploaded to e.g. \emph{figshare}, please use the \verb|howpublished| option in the bib entry to specify the platform and the link, as in the \verb|Hao:gidmaps:2014| example in the sample bibliography file.
\section*{Acknowledgements (not compulsory)}
Acknowledgements should be brief, and should not include thanks to anonymous referees and editors, or effusive comments. Grant or contribution numbers may be acknowledged.
\section*{Author contributions statement}
Must include all authors, identified by initials, for example:
A.A. conceived the experiment(s), A.A. and B.A. conducted the experiment(s), C.A. and D.A. analysed the results. All authors reviewed the manuscript.
\section*{Additional information}
To include, in this order: \textbf{Accession codes} (where applicable); \textbf{Competing interests} (mandatory statement).
The corresponding author is responsible for submitting a \href{http://www.nature.com/srep/policies/index.html#competing}{competing interests statement} on behalf of all authors of the paper. This statement must be included in the submitted article file.

%% Suppress the end period after non-abbreviated journal titles.

%% =============================================
%% IMPORTANT NOTICE:
%%
%% This work may be distributed and/or modified under the conditions
%% of the LaTeX Project Public License, either version 1.3c of this
%% license or (at your option) any later version.
%% The latest version of this license is available at
%% http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt
%% =============================================
%%
%% This package provides the "\JournalTitle{<title>}" command, where
%% "<title>" is a journal title that you wish to have automatically
%% abbreviated. For example,
%% \JournalTitle{Journal of the Optical Society of America}
%% will be replaced to read
%% J. Opt. Soc. Am.
%%
%% The default behavior of this package is to place a period after
%% each abbreviation. For publications that require period-less
%% abbreviations simply include the package option "noperiod":
%% \usepackage[noperiod]{jabbrv}
%%
%% The default behavior of this package is to not abbreviate a
%% journal title that only contains one word. You can disable this
%% behavior (still abbreviate one word titles) by including the
%% "oneword" package option:
%% \usepackage[oneword]{jabbrv}
%%
%% This package also ignores undefined abbreviations (does not
%% abbreviate them) by default. In order to make sure that all the
%% words you expect to be abbreviated are actually abbreviated then
%% include the "warnundef" option:
%% \usepackage[warnundef]{jabbrv}
%% Please note that this option outputs a LaTeX warning for each
%% title word that does not have an abbreviation, possibly resulting
%% in a large number of warnings in the output log.
%%
%% To change the language used for the set of abbreviations (english
%% by default), use the ``lang=<value>'' option with the Unix
%% language code for <value>; for example:
%% \usepackage[lang=es]{jabbrv}
%% sets the abbreviation language to Spanish.
%%
%% In order to add customize abbreviations this package provides
%% three additional commands: \DefineJournalAbbreviation,
%% \DefineJournalPartialAbbreviation and \DefineSpuriousJournalWord.
%% \DefineSpuriousJournalWord simply takes a single case-sensitive
%% parameter, this parameter will be added to the list of words to
%% completely remove in the output. \DefineJournalAbbreviation takes
%% two parameters, the first parameter is the case-sensitive word to
%% abbreviate and the second parameter is the actual abbreviation,
%% for example:
%% \DefineJournalAbbreviation{Journal}{J}
%% \DefineJournalPartialAbbreviation takes two
%% parameters juts like \DefineJournalAbbreviation; however,
%% \DefineJournalPartialAbbreviation creates an entry that matches
%% any title that begins with the first parameter, for example:
%% \DefineJournalPartialAbbreviation{Communica}{Commun}
%% will match longer words such as ``Communications'' and
%% abbreviate any such word with the given abbreviated form. Please
%% note that care should be taken with creating custom partial
%% abbreviations, as such abbreviations that are not approved by
%% the ISSN may match unintended title words.
%%
%% Please note that this package is still very much in the beta
%% stage, while it should work just fine it has not yet been
%% extensively tested.
