Open Science Modus Operandi of Research Communication
May 11, 2023, 12:00 – 14:00 (BRT/UTC-3)
Language: Spanish
What are preprints, how is their quality assured, what is their relationship with scientific journals? These are some of the topics that will be reviewed in this seminar, including an analysis of trends and how the participation of preprints in the international open science ecosystem is envisioned.
About
The subject of preprints is still new among the academic and scientific community because there are still several fears and myths that need to be clarified. In this seminar the topic will be extensively addressed from what are preprints, what are the routes to follow, good practices for publication will be reviewed and monitoring metrics will be disclosed, focusing on how preprints are part of and contribute to Open Science.
In this area there are several organizations that contribute in different ways, PREreview is one of them and their work will be reviewed, along with the process of peer review of preprints. Finally, those tools that are used as preprint servers will be addressed, highlighting the interoperable part with other open platforms, standardizing and following the technological recommendations that allow the correct exchange of information.
