📣 We’re thrilled to share this Q&A about the Genomics Preprint Club—why we started it, how we evaluate preprints as a community, and what we hope it can grow into.

Thanks to Trends in Genetics for highlighting our approach to rethinking peer review through open discussion and shared curiosity.
In this Q&A with the founders of @genomicspc.bsky.social, we learned why the GPC was launched, how they evaluate preprints, and more. Check it out!

The Genomics Preprint Club: rethinking peer review through community and dialogue
by Judit García-González & Lathan Liou
