So excited for @gabestein.com to join openRxiv as Head of Product! We’ve worked together on several projects in the past - now great to be under the same roof openrxiv.org/stein-announ...

This is really cool! I hope it helps move science away from the ever static pdf. There are so many opportunities to make reporting more interactive.

Most publishers are too complacent to change. It’s up to the contenders to aggressively disrupt and reform academic publishing, because we can’t rely on the publishers. @continuous.foundation and @curvenote.com working with preprints with #ATscience activists are the best chance we have imho.

It’s so much worse than you can imagine. 6m papers published a year and I would say half of all submitting authors and reviewers will be using a ~30 year old piece of software to contribute to publication. Yes that’s right. 30 years old. Three decades. Pre-broadband. Maybe pre-web.

Structured data FTW. Starting to get #modularscience and #atscience to scale! 🚀🚀 Congrats @openrxiv.bsky.social and @curvenote.com

You can read more about the experiment and the open exchange architecture (OXA) format that enables it in our blogpost openrxiv.org/labs-reader/. Feedback is welcome - it is an experiment after all! 2/2

Excited to launch the first openRxiv labs experiment: an interactive reading experience powered by @curvenote.com - this will evolve but you can get a taster of what's to come from the dynamic references & figure call-outs, in-line abbreviation expansions, etc. 1/2 reader.openrxivlabs.org

Towards Modular Open Science

Science is trapped in a paper-shaped box. In this talk at the ATProto community, Rowan Cockett introduces the structural states of scientific components — the floor, the buckets, and the shelf — and m...

Access removes locks. Structure creates movement. Why modular science changes everything. We unpack it here 👇 articles.continuousfoundation.org/articles/how...

🚀 To move beyond end-point peer review, PREreview & @continuous.foundation are co-leading the Modular Peer Review Working Group. 60+ people from diverse backgrounds and regions have joined this space for co-creation. Take a look at their first session outputs and follow along👇 bit.ly/modular-wg

Modular Peer Review Working Group

A working group hosted by Continuous Science Foundation (CSF) and PREreview exploring how peer review can evolve in a modular publishing ecosystem.

“In a physical world of .. printed journals, bundling made sense. In a digital world, we are increasingly constrained by boundaries that no longer make sense. In a world of AI, what does the bundle prevent us from seeing?” 🎯 Great piece by @row1.ca on unbundling research into modular knowledge! >

Rowan Cockett@row1.ca · 6mo ago

Scientific publishing is still organized around bundles built for print. We use music’s shift from albums to streaming to argue why access and unbundling aren’t enough. Shared standards are the missing layer for reusable, trustworthy science. articles.continuousfoundation.org/articles/how...

This article on a similar theme is better because it recognises that it's not just for AI it's also for humans, and it's not about breaking down papers into "atoms of knowledge" but about reusable components for ongoing research (not the same). bsky.app/profile/cont...

Feels like a moment, CSF now has a ROR! ror.org/00zwsrq61 Thanks @researchorgs.bsky.social. 🚀

The Modular Peer Review Working Group with our partners @prereview.bsky.social kicks off in January. Join the cohort shaping how we review modular research outputs like data, code, methods and visuals. continuousfoundation.org/peer-form

Building trust, building together: In San Diego @continuous.foundation & openRxiv hosted a workshop bringing together developers of scientific communications tools. Implementation focused, and most importantly we got to work together. Learn more: articles.continuousfoundation.org/articles/sci...

Real change happens when people build together. In San Diego, @openrxiv.bsky.social and CSF brought tool builders and researchers into one room to share a keyboard, test ideas, and prototype modular, machine readable publishing. Learn more: articles.continuousfoundation.org/articles/sci...

🚀 Exciting news! The SciPy 2025 Proceedings are officially published: 👉 proceedings.scipy.org/2025 Huge thanks to the Proceedings Committee, @curvenote.com, Jim Weiss, all the authors, and reviewers who made this happen. 🙌

The @openrxiv.bsky.social community is charting the future of preprints — not just as papers, but as connected nodes in the open research web. Our reflections + @row1.ca's lightning talk on building continuous, connected publishing. curvenote.com/blog/czi-ope...

@creativecommons.bsky.social and @continuous.foundation are teaming up to make reuse the default for modular science. Join the cohort working to shape incentives for reuse in modular science. The group will kick off in January 2026. Apply by Sunday, Nov 30 continuousfoundation.org/reuse-form

Introducing #ComposableScience, a new paradigm for the way science is communicated. Where data, code, figures are shared & credited. Where we can reuse and build on others' work easily. Share your story & help shape how we make modular science a reality 👉 continuousfoundation.org/get-involved

We have an open call with @continuous.foundation for a Modular Style Peer Review Working Group to: 🌻 Co-create practical models for reviewing non-traditional outputs 🌻 Build trust without gatekeeping 🌻 Design review processes that reflect researcher needs Join us: continuousfoundation.org/peer-form

In May we hosted a convergence in Banff, Canada. The group gathered to ask better questions of science communication. Not just what’s broken?—but what could be? We surfaced stories, tools, and a hunger for something more open, more connected. articles.continuousfoundation.org/articles/ban...

Inspired by the conversations at our workshop last week, we are more convinced than ever. We can't keep treating broken systems like sacred ones. It is time to build what science actually needs — here to do it together. 🚀

Seemay Chou@seemaychou.bsky.social · last yr.

We did something radical that shouldn’t feel radical: we stopped funding science built for journals so that we can reimagine scientific publishing. First @arcadiascience.com. Now at @asterainstitute.bsky.social.

We had an amazing meeting in Banff this week with 22 open sci nice advocates. More to come soon! articles.continuousfoundation.org/articles/ban...

Excited to see what comes out of the Continuous Science summit this week! @continuous.foundation #♾️science
