Catch up on the preLights webinar series: From preprint to publication
Posted by Reinier Prosee, on 23 January 2024
In line with preLights’ ongoing postLights initiative, one of the preLights Ambassadors, Martin Estermann, has decided to create and host a new webinar series focusing on the journey of the preprint. This involves a series of virtual webinars featuring different researchers (often early-career researchers) who posted their manuscripts as a preprint before or during the peer review process.
The goal of this webinar series is to highlight the benefits of preprinting to the research community and to discuss relevant examples both within and outside the preLights community.
Three webinars were chaired by Martin in December 2023, which featured three preprints that have all been covered by preLights.
One of the webinars discussed a preprint from the group of Laura Kerosuo, titled ‘Maintenance of pluripotency in the entire ectoderm enables neural crest formation‘, followed by a Q&A with preLighter Andrew Montequin, who covered Laura’s work on preLights last year.
