Back in 2023, PREreview partnered with the journal Current Research in Neurobiology to explore integrating our Live Reviews model into their workflow, to inform editorial decision-making.

This experience, led by Dr. Chris Petkov, showed that community Live Reviews can match the quality and time-efficiency of traditional #PeerReview while opening opportunities for dialogue and learning often missing from the process.

📑 The results of the pilot, run with five manuscripts submitted to CRNEUR in that year, are now published in Research Integrity and Peer Review. Read the open access paper here: https://doi.org/10.1186/s41073-026-00210-5

#ScholarlyPublishing #LiveReview

Citation Relevance Auditor v2 now:

- Flags when cited papers contradict the claim (not just relevant/irrelevant)
- Sharper peer-review criteria (working paper vs journal, audience fit)
- Copyright-safe — evidence database is gitignored by default
- Cleaner YAML schema for claim extraction

6-agent pipeline: outline → literature → draft → verify → review.

GitHub - gpowerf/citation-relevance-auditor: “You cited it, but does it fit?” — A prompt that systematically checks if in-text citations match their references in meaning and strength. Drop in a paper, specify the reference numbers, and get a clear, per-reference relevance verdict (Highly relevant, Somewhat relevant, or Not relevant) with reasoning.

Post-publication reviewing by ReproducibiliTea journal clubs

Our ReproducibiliTea community consists of journal clubs organised and joined mainly by early career researchers who discuss journal articles on a regular basis, sometimes even resembling the act of post-publication reviewing. The content of these discussions is, however, typically kept private. We think that this is a missed opportunity to share ideas with the wider community, learn from each other, and contribute to the scholarly discourse. At the same time, we believe that ReproducibiliTea journal clubs that focus mainly on topics related to improving research practices, could also incorporate peer review training into their programmes.

“cosmopolitismo femminile plurale”, a cura di giulia tellini, diego salvadori, salomé vuelta garcìa

Affrontare il tema del cosmopolitismo al femminile significa parlare di donne che per i motivi più vari hanno vissuto in più luoghi, che hanno scelto come loro patria d’elezione il mondo intero, che hanno sviluppato uno sguardo multi-prospettico e trans-nazionale su una pluralità di questioni. Si tratta di poetesse, drammaturghe, pubbliciste, pedagogiste, dottoresse, scienziate, saggiste, filosofe, che, fra l’Otto e il Novecento, sono riuscite non solo a integrarsi in un paese diverso rispetto a quello d’origine (sia in quanto donne, sia in quanto straniere), ma anche a studiare, a lavorare, a combattere contro le dittature e gli integralismi, a far ascoltare forte e chiara la propria voce di libertà e di rivolta.

Research should be treated more like open source software: continuously improved, corrected, extended, and scrutinized. But both #peerreview ers and #opensource developers could benefit from less gatekeeping and more constructive engagement with users and contributors.
