Preprint servers like bioRxiv and medRxiv play a crucial role in making research freely available to everyone – faster. But maintaining these platforms isn’t easy; they rely on volunteers and often struggle with funding.
Now, thanks to startup funding from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI), a new nonprofit, openRxiv, has been created to ensure preprint servers remain free, independent, and researcher-led. This means better stability, growth, and accessibility of preprint services for scientists worldwide!
Faster knowledge-sharing = faster discoveries. Let’s celebrate this step towards a more open and collaborative scientific community!
