New paper out: "Peer Review at the Crossroads" I analyzed 4 peer review models from traditional gatekeeping to Publish-Review-Curate. Key finding: no single model is ideal, but PRC shows promise for transparency & accessibility. Open access: doi.org/10.1002/leap... #PeerReview #OpenScience #STS

Are you an early-career researcher (or someone hoping to help ECRs) working in #openscience or #metascience? The @reproducibilitea.org podcast is looking for guests for our next season of episodes! We'd love to feature ECR voices foremost – the next generation of scientists should be heard the most!

Journals don't filter research, they stratify it. The Publish-Review-Curate model relies on open discussion, not misplaced trust. Publish: Post research as a preprint Review: Public reviews inform wider discussion of research Curate: Community recommendations elifesciences.org/inside-elife...

We did something radical that shouldn’t feel radical: we stopped funding science built for journals so that we can reimagine scientific publishing. First @arcadiascience.com. Now at @asterainstitute.bsky.social.

Join us for a July Community Call to discuss reimagining scholarly communication! 📝 ‪@brembs.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy‬ will discuss replacing traditional journals with decentralized, community-governed infrastructure. 🔗 Register us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

How can we rethink and reorganise #ScholarlyCommunication to better advance science? What is the role of #PeerReview? Should #Preprints take centre stage? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... #AcademicSky #OpenScience #ResearchIntegrity @elife.bsky.social @learnedpublishing.bsky.social

Great opportunity to hear about PubPeer from founder @brandonstell.bsky.social - sometimes controversial, PubPeer has undoubtedly been force for more rigorous science 👏

A vision of the future? #ScholarlyPublishing 2035 "They replaced impact factors, the h-index, and other esteem indicators associated with commercial academic publishing with more nuanced metrics..." www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Does publishing serve science or is science serving publishing? Damian Pattinson and I (@elife.bsky.social) argue scientific publishing has evolved into a system that, rather than facilitate scholarly communication, distorts and dictates it. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... #OpenScience
