eLife Pathways has joined @cairos.network, a dedicated space for open science projects to collaborate & solve problems together. We'll collaborate on a future of knowledge sharing centred on modular publishing, structured discourse & collective intelligence.🌐👇 elifepathways.org/blog/post-18...

CAIROS is growing - we're very excited to welcome elifepathways.org who are joining the federation! Read more in their post:

eLife Pathways is now stewarding Kotahi. In a new era of sharing, reviewing and curating research, it's important that there are open-source technologies that can experiment with more connected research outputs and support more modular, machine-readable science: elifepathways.org/blog/post-11...

this is going to be a good one!

Nature Sci Rep publishes incoherent AI slop. eLife publishes a paper which the reviewers didn't agree with, making all the comments and responses public with thoughtful commentary. One of these journals got delisted by Web of Science for quality concerns from not doing peer review. Guess which one?

I am really proud that eLife have published this paper. It is a very nice paper, but you need to also read the reviews to understand why! 1/n
