Will nature factor these considerations into their editorial ethos? For better or worse we likely need the most influential journals, scientific orgs, and labs to put their necks out first if we are going to have meaningful change to the scientific enterprise.

“We are seeing progressively more fragmented knowledge becoming incredibly specialized. But there is great promise in investigating common themes, overarching rules, and patterns to tell us more about healthy states and disease states.”

I've spent several years building software tools in genomics. While the work couldn't be more exciting, there are unique challenges and tensions in the world of scientific software. How does software in the life sciences actually work (and not work)? newscience.org/how-software-i…
