Sciety secures funding from NLNet Foundation to help build discourse around preprints At Sciety we're pioneering a new layer of open scholarly communication, one that captures informal conversations around preprints and makes them discoverable and reusable. Sciety has secured new…

Preprint peer evaluation already happens here. In posts and in replies.

But it’s disconnected from the scholarly record and how science gets credited.

With support from NLnet, Sciety is working to recognise the crucial act of community curation

We're launching a series of Community Member Spotlight blogs to showcase exciting ways that researchers use Sciety to support their daily #preprint discovery!

So, to those in #SciComm and #OpenScience: What questions do you find interesting when ‘getting to know’ scientists in your field & beyond?

We believe this collaborative feedback<>development loop can benefit Sciety and the wider research community as a whole. So, #AcademicSky - in the spirit of #OpenScienceWeek, let us know who we should be connecting with! We're excited to see where our next #ScienceCollaboration could take us (3/3)

Developments at @scietyhq.bsky.social are informed by direct feedback from scientists who use our application, members of the wider research community, and the network of preprint evaluation communities we’re privileged to represent (sciety.org/groups) on our mission towards Open Science (2/3)

For our inaugural Bluesky post, we're calling on all #OpenScience enthusiasts to help us know which communities we should be speaking with to help us understand the difficulties around preprint discovery. Societies, labs, preprint review groups & tech initiatives - we’d love to know them all! (1/3)
