Whinging about moral panics, sexism and carnivores, celebrating science and evidence-based policy making. I work for PLOS but all of the views here are my own.

Good to see Open Review system up and running for all @PLOS journals. Will be interesting to see the take-up at that scale.

Today, we’re pushing the boundaries of Open and launching published peer review history across all of our journals. We're excited to begin offering authors and reviewers more choices about how they publish!

[Richard Sever @cshperspectives]

PLOS articles now link back to bioRxiv preprint to show article history :-) e.g. https://t.co/Xyh9gJb5d6

@PREreview_ @rchampieux @dr_lrwyatt @ontowonka This was *so* helpful!! Getting live feedback from readers has convinced me that every paper should go thru a preprint journal club! Thx everyone! #openscience #DataLicensing #preprint #MozSprint

Posting to a #preprint server does not make a manuscript ineligible for submitting to a scientific journal. #PowerToThePreprint https://t.co/blsBmuovYa

[PLOS @PLOS]

#Preprint isn't a synonym for "first draft" or "low quality". In fact, we think scientists who post to a preprint server are taking #peerreview a step further by inviting MORE feedback from the community. https://t.co/9lFJus7X0r #PowerToThePreprint

@slimeate Set your expectations to low. I just had to google hot take....

#PowerToThePreprint: PLOS authors can now opt-in to posting their manuscript as a @biorxivpreprint

[Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory @CSHL]

Loving the hashtag #PowerToThePreprint!😍 With more people submitting to @biorxivpreprint than ever before, it's a great time to see what all the buzz is about.🤓 @PLOS provides "Ten simple rules to consider regarding preprint submission" 👇 https://t.co/1bTQidTE2f

[PLOS @PLOS]

#Preprints have come to @PLOS!
Starting today, authors submitting to (most) PLOS journals have the choice of also posting as @biorxivpreprint. See the tweets above for just some of the reasons why we say "opt in". https://t.co/De5vsHJF9f #PowerToThePreprint

[Katie Joy Hickling @kjhick]

PLOS journals now offer posting to bioRxiv (@biorxivpreprint) as part of their submission process. Can't wait to see those CC-BY preprints out there!!! #PowertothePreprint!
