Community Call: Preprints in Progress

Preprints in Progress – accelerate research by expanding the use of preprints across the research cycle

Preprints are increasingly used for the dissemination of research, however, most preprints still take the form of traditional research papers posted shortly before submission to a journal. ASAPbio believes that we can accelerate research by substantially expanding the use of preprints to report a wide range of research outputs: early-stage results from a small set of experiments, negative or inconclusive findings, confirmatory results, and much more. At the Community Call, we will cover:

– Our vision and plans for our ‘Preprints in progress’ project that seeks to expand the use of preprints.
– Alexandra Navarro from the Whitehead Institute (MIT, US) will speak about her experience with the preprint she posted to share early results from her project, and which has been shaping over the last year based on community feedback.
