One of the important benefits of @reviewcommons.org is having a peer-reviewed preprint, which to an increasing number of funders counts as a published paper @embo.org

Saves important time for trainees to have their work recognized.

Next, at #EYSF2025 @reviewcommons.org is presented by @saramonaco-rc.bsky.social. It’s journal-agnostic, concentrates on science only and can save time as the peer-reviewed preprints can easily be resubmitted. How great would it be if we could ditch publishing and switch to reviewed preprints?

☕️ Scientists have confirmed a direct correlation between caffeine intake and survival during jam-packed conference schedules. 📊
#EESWildModels evidence:
🔬 3+ cups of coffee = increased poster session stamina
🧠 2 espresso shots = enhanced question-asking confidence
🚀 Cold brew = warp-speed networking
