"The answer is to fix peer review so it meets the needs of modern science, not to scrap it entirely or pretend it can work ad hoc in the comments section of a preprint."

"The BMGF is placing more value on early, open, and inclusive research dissemination. The method it is employing is to lead with the preprint, and de-prioritize – but not remove – the scholarly journal."

The Future of Publishing is the theme of #PeerReviewWeek2023
In our view, preprint peer review has the greatest potential to reform scientific publishing; facilitating immediate access to research findings, collegial discussion of results, and transparent evaluation of studies.

Authors have provided very positive feedback about the rigour and collegiality of our consolidated reports. We’re also gratified that 95% of reviewers have chosen to publicly sign these reports. We believe this kind of service-oriented peer review is the future of publishing.
