Newly released Stockholm Declaration recommends the following reforms to publishing: 1. Academia resumes control of publishing 2. Incentive systems to merit quality, not quantity 3. Independent fraud detection and prevention 4. Legislation and policies to protect science quality and integrity

ORFG Members celebrated @openrxiv.bsky.social at the @cziscience.bsky.social meeting! @gatesfoundation.bsky.social @hhmi.org @asapresearch.parkinsonsroadmap.org @schmidtsciences.bsky.social and others! We're excited about the future of preprints! #preprints #OpenScience #OpenFunders

Open Access Week highlights the power of free, immediate access to research by ensuring science benefits all. Proud to join @parkinsondotorg.bsky.social, @parkinsons.org.uk, @cureparkinsons.org.uk, @alleninstitute.org, @dataseerai.bsky.social, @strategiesos.bsky.social, @orfg.bsky.social & others 🔓

@icoropen.bsky.social launched Open Research Beacon, a hub for those in the open community to connect products, projects, and services. It's a great way to find out what's going on in "open" especially if you're a funder. #OpenScience #OpenResearch #OpenData #OpenCode www.orfg.org/news/2025/10...

Very exciting to see funders pushing for change in how outputs are communicated. Moving towards an interoperable knowledge stack every day. 👏👏👏 Nice work @hhmi.org @asterainstitute.bsky.social @gatesfoundation.bsky.social #Preprints #OpenScholarship #OpenData #OpenScience

Europe’s #research still leans on foreign #datainfrastructure, a risk, warns the #EuropeanParliament. Dependence could undermine #openscience and #innovation, spurring calls for stronger EU capacity. 🔎Read here:

We believe preprints and open peer review are central to reducing publishing expenses. 💰📝 We have crafted a response to NIH Request for Information on “Maximizing Research Funds by Limiting Allowable Publishing Costs,” where you can learn about the details of our recommendations. buff.ly/v9I0i9v

Big news! @hhmi.org has released an Immediate Access to Research policy that requires preprint deposit with CC-BY licenses and eliminates financial support for APCs. Congrats to all the folks at HHMI for making this happen! 🎊 #OpenScience #OpenResearch #Preprints www.linkedin.com/posts/orfg_i...

"We respectfully recommend that NIH prioritize direct investment—centrally and/or through allowable costs—in existing open infrastructure to disseminate research outputs." 👍 #OpenScience #Preprints

Great work coming out of the @americanheart.bsky.social in support of #OpenData and #OpenScience!

@txtbks.bsky.social of @sparcopen.bsky.social and Cailyn Nagle of Michelson 20MM Foundation talked with @thelever.bsky.social about automatic textbook billing. Great to see this problem getting news coverage. AND awesome to see funders doing something about it. #OpenAccess #OER #OpenFunder
