Another #spotLights episode just aired! 
We’re launching our #biologists100 conference series with @richardsever, discussing:
The launch of openRxiv The role of preprints in supporting early-career researchers What’s ahead for scholarly publishing & peer review
Recorded live in Liverpool, March 2025 by Jonathan Townson & Reinier Prosee.
Exciting News! 
We’re thrilled to welcome Preprints.org to the growing list of preprint servers where authors can request feedback from the PREreview community with just one simple click!
This integration is made possible via @coar_repositories COAR Notify.

Interesting article on #arXiv - I wasn't aware of the early history. Quite a story!

Last year, we found that @OpenAlex was mistakenly marking some papers as retracted—misleading researchers. We @hauschke reported the issue, posted a preprint in March 2024, and… #OpenAlex fixed it almost instantly!

Meanwhile, our peer-reviewed paper on this? Published today - over a year later. See the difference? Preprints matter. Open science works.
openRxiv has arrived!
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of openRxiv as an independent, researcher-led nonprofit to oversee @biorxivpreprint and @medrxivpreprint the world’s leading preprint servers for life and health sciences.

openRxiv ensures communication at the speed of science remains the mission.

#KIMissbrauch #Retröt
Die Verbreitung von #KI-generierten #FakeStudien stellt eine wachsende Bedrohung für die wissenschaftliche Integrität dar. Besonders betroffen sind Bereiche wie #Umwelt, #Gesundheit und #Informatik, wo #Falschinformationen gezielt gestreut werden könnten, um politische Agenden zu unterstützen. Die Studien sind schwer von echten wissenschaftlichen Arbeiten zu unterscheiden.

PS: I'm sympathetic to those short on time or caught up in job changes. But those pointing to #nullresults didn't understand the point of #preregistration.
Those whose submissions were rejected by journals could still share the results as #preprints.

Comparing the predicted #replicability of a study with its actual replicability.

"Both beginners and more-experienced participants…have some ability to make better-than-chance predictions about the reliability of ‘fast science’ under conditions of high uncertainty."
For more along these lines, esp #PredictionMarkets for #replication, see the Twitter thread I started in 2020, which I plan to continue here in Mastodon. Watch this space.
