💥New: Preprints at a crossroads - Are we compromising openness for credibility? ✍️Natascha Chtena @juancommander & Alice Fleerackers #OpenAccess #Preprints wp.me/p4m9em-dlM

I have spent 6 yrs studying preprints. In that time, the way we use and communicate about these studies has changed dramatically. Concerns about misinfo are real. But in addressing these concerns, we cannot lose sight of what makes preprints, preprints. #openscience

When a nonscientist reads a news article about findings in a preprint, do they know what that means -- and whether they should believe the results? ScienceInsider News from Science science.org/content/articl…

Great summary of recent research on public perceptions of preprints, featuring a cool new paper by Alice Fleerackers. 📰 Goes beyond our earlier work by also using qualitative methods, revealing very interesting (and worrying) results. Insightful read!

Loved this nuanced take on our recent research exploring how audiences (mis)understand the word "preprint" when they see it mentioned in the news. TL;DR: They (mostly) don't. Check it out News from Science 👇

I have mostly been a social media ghost the last months, but I have exciting news to share: This week I started a new job as Assistant Professor of Journalism and Civic Engagement at UvA Amsterdam. If you live in the Netherlands, please say hi (of "hallo"?)

Preprints often make news. Many people don’t know what they are: The public needs context about unreviewed manuscripts, Alice Fleerackers et al survey suggests science.org/content/articl… via Jeffrey Brainard
