Research Ideas and Outcomes (RIO) launched, and will start accepting submissions in November. Like F1000Research, they will publish articles in all stages of research, including hypotheses and proposals. They also allow versioned articles. Good to see others using this type of publication model, and expanding it to other fields!- It was also a good week for The Winnower, another post-publication peer review open science publisher. They received an OpenAIRE grant to investigate the possibilty of making peer review reports a publication in and of itself. (At F1000Research we tend to think of the peer review reports as small publications, too, and you can cite a peer review report independently of the article.)
- PubPeer announced the formation of the PubPeer Foundation (and in the process revealed the names of their founders, who had been anonymous until now.)
- Want to know more about the Reproducibility Project? Center for Open Science are doing a Reddit AMA later today.
- The map of OpenCon Satellite meetings is expanding. (None in the US yet, strangely). The main OpenCon meeting will be November 14-16 in Brussels and applications for that have closed, but the satellite events are still open to attend.
- Finally, the Wikipedia Science Conference this week touched on many aspects of open science. You can find out more in our blog post, or the Storify summaries of day 1 and day 2.
