Hi #ScienceMastodon.

#preLights (https://prelights.biologists.com) is a #preprint highlights service run by the biological #community & supported by #Co_Biologists allowing one to:

🔎 Sift through the high # of preprints.
💡 Highlight new thinking/techniques across the biological sciences.
📝 Comment on preprints.
👥 See comments & opinions of others.

We’ve moved over to our own instance @biologists.social, & hope that you’ll join us there for friendly chats between biologists!
