Exciting news 🥁: we’ve acquired @[email protected] database. Together, we will maintain high quality retraction data and make it openly available for the scholarly community. This is a major development, building on our continued commitment to, #opendata that fosters #transparency and #researchintegrity. All the details can be found on our blog, https://doi.org/10.13003/c23rw1d9
News: Crossref and Retraction Watch - Crossref

Big news in the #scholarlypublishing community! The Open Funder Registry is merging into Research Organization Registry (ROR), bringing together #funders and #publishers in a more efficient and streamlined way. Learn more about this significant transition in our latest blog post. https://www.crossref.org/blog/open-funder-registry-to-transition-into-research-organization-registry-ror/ #LetsRORTogether
Open Funder Registry to transition into Research Organization Registry (ROR) - Crossref

Today, we are announcing a long-term plan to deprecate the Open Funder Registry. For some time, we have understood that there is significant overlap between the Funder Registry and the Research Organization Registry (ROR), and funders and publishers have been asking us whether they should use Funder IDs or ROR IDs to identify funders. It has therefore become clear that merging the two registries will make workflows more efficient and less confusing for all concerned.

Hi there!
Here is a short #introduction about me and things I have been doing lately!

Living in the UK, after a decade in Germany, originally being from South America.

for a while I have been an #openscience advocate and practitioner, focusing on #openhardware and tools for research.

I currently work at the University of Sussex in the UK, as a scientific officer and a lecturer in Open Science.

Some places that might be worth a visit (but some might be outdated)

Open Neuroscience is a volunteer organized project to aggregate and curate open source projects related to Neurosciences

@amchagas@Boosting @amchagas 's intro for people who are into open hardware and don't know him yet. Great to see you here!

Side note about side hustle: André/Prometheus Science advised us at @3Dneuro on how to make our open hardware strategies better ( https://www.3dneuro.com/open-hardware/ ), and did a fantastic job there!

every time a conversation about new publishing modalities runs aground on "but what about peer review" as if journals are the only means of reviewing anything I remember this paragraph.

When you preprint something, and then it gets published in a journal following peer review and revisions, do you go back and update the preprint?
