The support from @embopress.org and @reviewcommons.org means a lot! Thank you @tlemberger.bsky.social ! @qedscience.bsky.social

The Chameau gene helps flies survive starvation at lower temps, but a mere 2{degree sign}C rise makes it obsolete! This temperature-dependent role in metabolism and resilience has big implications for climate change biology. @reviewcommons.org www.life-science-alliance.org/content/9/1/...

Chameau (HBO1) gene function in starvation resistance is bypassed by slightly elevated temperatures in Drosophila, suggesting a temperature-dependent metabolic role. @reviewcommons.org www.life-science-alliance.org/content/9/1/...

How can gut microbes modulate host lifespan? @jogender-singh.bsky.social & coworkers show that in C. elegans, lifespan extension arises from microbial perturbation of iron homeostasis and oxidative stress response activation #RefereedPreprint c/o @reviewcommons.org www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

Review Commons partner journal network is expanding! Welcome to Journal of General Physiology @jgp.org @rupress.org. Looking forward to this collaboration.

1/ @reviewcommons.org, @embo.org's preprint peer review platform, is taking an important step forward. Multiple publishers, including eLife, are now jointly running the peer-review process on behalf of the platform. 🔗 buff.ly/Rm1XotK

Big New! @elife.bsky.social @genetics-gsa.bsky.social #G3journal are joining editorial forces with @reviewcommons.org - bringing not just field-specific expertise to the process but also making #PreprintPeerReview a truly collaborative effort!🎉👏 Read more to find out👇 www.embo.org/features/pub...

This study focuses on schizophrenia-related genes in a genetically tractable system and identifies the requirement of both glial and neuronal MMPs during developmental remodeling. @reviewcommons.org www.life-science-alliance.org/content/8/12...

Fibril formation of α-synuclein, central to Parkinson’s disease, is catalyzed by ubiquilin-2 droplets and can be suppressed by small-molecule targeting of UBQLN2 #RefereedPreprint c/o @reviewcommons.org by Masaya Imoto, Nobutaka Hattori and coworkers www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

And also the bacterial telomere protection paper by Maya, Nicolas, & Ania is out: doi.org/10.1038/s443... Great experience with @reviewcommons.org & @embojournal.org Feels just right to have the manuscript reviewed without having to target a specific journal from the start.

Final thoughts: the experience of publishing this article via @reviewcommons.org and @embojournal.org was awesome!

How do cells curb nutrient uptake during quiescence & does it matter? @teislab.bsky.social & Co. show TXNIP-dependent endocytosis of amino acid transporter LAT1/SLC7A5 is essential to prevent cell death and human disease #RefereedPreprint c/o @reviewcommons.org www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

Our story on Srs2/PARI family DNA helicases linking chromatin bridges to the Aurora-B dependent NoCut checkpoint is now out in its peer-reviewed version. Thanks to @reviewcommons.org and @jcb.org for a smooth review process! Original preprint thread here: bsky.app/profile/long...

We’re thrilled to welcome the Journal of General Physiology @jgp.org @rupress.org to our Affiliate Program! 🎉 Authors can now seamlessly transfer their #peerreviewedpreprint @reviewcommons.org @embo.org to JGP via our transfer portal. Excited to start this new chapter with JGP @rupress.org!

Our managing editor @saramonaco-rc.bsky.social visited VU-Life Sciences Centre to discuss innovations in peer review. Her lecture and debate showcased how models like @reviewcommons.org @embo.org can help shape the future of scientific publishing. Read more here www.gmc.vu.lt/en/about/new...

Next, at #EYSF2025 @reviewcommons.org is presented by @saramonaco-rc.bsky.social. It’s journal-agnostic, concentrates on science only and can save time as the peer-reviewed preprints can easily be resubmitted. How great would it be if we could ditch publishing and switch to reviewed preprints?

(2/2) Formalizing "Reviewed Preprints" as a category will have important implications for the P-R-C model & to meaningfully take forward the work undertaken by preprint reviewing platforms like @reviewcommons.org @prereview.bsky.social @peercommunityin.bsky.social @elife.bsky.social, etc.! #PRC

I LOVE @reviewcommons.org Highly recommended

One of the important benefits of @reviewcommons.org is having a peer-reviewed preprint, which to an increasing number of funders counts as a published paper @embo.org Saves important time for trainees to have their work recognized.

What is the basis & significance of SUMO1 vs SUMO2/3 conjugation preference? Jo Morris et al find that mitotic deacetylation biases SUMO E1 SAE2 towards #SUMO1 conjugation onto NuMA to ensure faithful chromosome segregation #RefereedPreprint c/o @reviewcommons.org www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....

This work was first reviewed by @reviewcommons.org, which has become my favorite way to have a paper reviewed. After a full revision, we transferred the manuscript to @elife.bsky.social, where it is now officially published.

Day 2 of the The human Microbiome conference #EESMicrobiome - Our editor Dr. Ruby Ponnudurai @rubyponnudurai.bsky.social is on the Meet the Editor panel today at lunch. Get in touch with her to know more about @reviewcommons.org. The human microbiome www.embl.org/about/info/c...

These factors make a strong argument for @reviewcommons.org ! More journals should participate.

(2/2) I think #transparent, #open #review of preprints like those done by @elife.bsky.social @metaror.bsky.social @reviewcommons.org @peercommunityin.bsky.social @prereview.bsky.social is important & I believe these will pave the way forward!

As I said before, this is precisely what a whole lot of people including @asapbio.bsky.social @prereview.bsky.social @metaror.bsky.social @elife.bsky.social @reviewcommons.org @peercommunityin.bsky.social are trying to do! We can't dismiss #preprints just because they're not widely being reviewed!!!

A lot of people & organizations to thank for this shift! @biorxivpreprint.bsky.social @richardsever.bsky.social @johninglis.bsky.social @asapbio.bsky.social @jessicapolka.bsky.social @prereview.bsky.social @neurosarda.bsky.social @reviewcommons.org @embo.org @elife.bsky.social, etc., etc. etc.! 👏
