After the last presentation ends, the real collaboration (sharing a large platter of Georgian dumplings!) begins. The perfect recipe to wind down an unforgettable Platform Strategies. #strategies25 💜

If AI makes research 10x faster, we'll need 200-300 million peer reviews annually. And, uh... there aren't enough PhDs on Earth to handle that workload. Time to get smarter about reviewer recruitment, not just faster at manuscript production.

Who wore it best? #Strategies25 @teopulvirenti.bsky.social

Jen-uinely having a blast at ISMTE Editors Without Borders with @jenniferaregala.bsky.social 🩷

Gen AI enginers are giving your researchers instant answers. The search bypass effect isn't coming for publishers—it's already here. Double-digit traffic losses are the new normal. It's time to rethink how scholarly knowledge gets distributed: blog.hum.works/posts/the-al...

Guest Post - Six Things Your Marketing Colleagues Wish You Knew - The Scholarly Kitchen

Last week's @scholarlypub.bsky.social Innovation Showcase wasn't just demos - it was a masterclass in publisher productivity. ✅ AI manuscript triage ✅ Cloud-native XML workflows - @dclaboratory.bsky.social ✅ Friction-free author portals - @silverchairnews.bsky.social ✅ Smart discovery engines

When your star editor spends 50 hours on formatting instead of actual editing? That's a problem. AI should handle the drudgery. Humans should handle the brilliance. blog.hum.works/posts/the-al...

🤖 Your readers' new research process: Ask ChatGPT Get answer Never visit your website This isn't temporary disruption. This is permanent rewiring. Smart publishers are building on foundations that evolve with the AI landscape: blog.hum.works/posts/the-al...

Interesting insight from Dustin Smith @humworks.bsky.social about the need for orchestration infrastructure that connects AI models, prompts, data, and interfaces to allow publishers to harness AI: blog.hum.works/posts/the-al...

@oxfordunipress.bsky.social is piloting AI manuscript intelligence with Hum's Alchemist Review. The goal? Give editors superpowers 🦸‍♀️ Automated manuscript insights, methodology assessment, citation validation – all feeding directly into ScholarOne Manuscripts. blog.hum.works/posts/oup-an...

We ran. We walked. We rolled. ✌️ #SSP5K Dustin brought a secret weapon (tiny legs, big energy, even bigger t-shirt!). Richard made us jealous of his Amsterdam views while Andrew merely tried to survive in the TX heat. Will forgot his shirt, but nailed his 5K time ⌚

Convincing some furry friends to tag along for the #SSP5K on a beautiful Friday afternoon? Easy. Getting those furry friends to comply with a post-run photoshoot? They know "sit" and "stay," but uhh... we have some work to do on "smile!" // @scholarlypub.bsky.social

CSX team proving they're fast on their feet in more ways than one! 🏃‍♀️ First Hum team to finish the #SSP5K! (Andrea, Jake, Heather & Carson always go the extra mile for our clients - but today, they went 3.1...) / @scholarlypub.bsky.social

We never thought we'd see the day that someone one-upped John Challice's vibrant conference shirts... #SSP2025

Organizing scientific knowledge is like good lab work: precision, efficiency, & the right tools make all the difference. @asm.org has chosen Hum's Alchemist Taxonomy to revolutionize content discovery across their 16 journals. Excited to accelerate scientific discovery for their global community!

Roundtables in FULL FORCE. #SSP2025 You know it's good if Dustin is talking with his hands.

Shark Week came early this year! 🦈 @silverchairnews.bsky.social's Shark Tank-themed #SSP2025 session was filled to the brim with energy and good ideas. Thank you to everyone who participated and made this Friday morning feel electric!

Note the G.O.A.T! Thanks for celebrating the win with us, Madame President. @heatherstaines.bsky.social #SSP2025 @scholarlypub.bsky.social

Is it ironic that we missed our chance to accept our G.O.A.T. trophy on stage because we weren't fast enough to sprint from meetings to the @scholarlypub.bsky.social awards ceremony in time? 🏃 #SSP2025

Appreciate @humworks.bsky.social for bringing the best swag game to #SSP2025.

Scoping out the swag over at the @silverchairnews.bsky.social booth. (Everybody say "Hey, Steph!") #SSP2025

Ice on my wrist 🩷 💛 🩵 Good morning, Baltimore! #SSP2025
