I was keen to stress that at least some of any savings must be used to support new, fairer models

"I am delighted to see innovations in scholarly communication being led by metascientists themselves", says @BrianNosek @OSFramework

Scholarly communication faces big challenges: peer review pressure, limited access, & lack of openness.

Metaresearch has a unique role in solving them.
