Hi Mastodon! 👋

Dipping my toes here given the situation on the birdsite. I am Editor in Chief of #PLOSBiology, interested in all things science.

A virologist by training, I am passionate about #OpenScience and making publication process a transparent and constructive one.

I look forward to chatting about science, the evolving publishing landscape, traveling, cooking and a bit of everything!

Is the prevalence of #OpenScience practices growing? It's a deceptively difficult question to answer.

Proud that @PLOS has been part of this 🌐 effort to define principles for Open Science monitoring, in a way that honors context but leaves the door open to pooling, comparison (not ranking), and reuse.

New study: "The #OpenScience, #patent-free nature of the project enabled a large number of collaborators to provide in-kind support…By making all #data immediately available and ensuring that all compounds are purchasable…without the need for materials transfer agreements, we aim to accelerate research globally along parallel tracks…We hope that this can serve as an alternative model for antiviral discovery and future #pandemic preparedness."
