194: Author verification everythinghertz.com/194
We discuss whether preprint servers and journals should introduce author identity verification for submitting manuscripts. This would probably speed up the submission process, is this worth the potential downsides?

Here is an interesting project, which - if it finds its way to the right people - has the potential to legitimately help improve public health. The approach to broadcasting the outcomes sounds a bit scary, but ultimately I think it's probably right 1/ #ScientificPublishing #ResearchIntegrity

Studies about paying peer reviewers!
190: What happens when you pay reviewers? everythinghertz.com/190
We chat about two new studies that evaluated the impact of paying reviewers on peer review speed and quality.
One of these studies had such massive effects on peer-review speed we had to double-take the figure.

We just released a new @hertzpodcast.bsky.social episode, in which we discuss a recent editorial on double-blind peer reviews. The editorial also covers the benefits of open peer review reports, which some people are against for what I think are unconvincing reasons everythinghertz.com/188
