ASAPbio publish papers on Recognising Preprint Review

Two ASAPbio Working Groups publish recommendations on how preprint review can be used by publishers, funders and institutions.

In the run-up to the Recognizing Preprint Peer Review meeting, sponsored by HHMI, ASAPbio, and EMBO in December 2022, ASAPbio organised two working groups on how stakeholders can use preprint review. One group focused on Funders, Researchers, and Institutions, and the other focused on journals. PeerRef’s founder, Elliott, took part in the working group that focussed on how journals can use preprint reviews.

ASAPbio has recently published the outputs from these working groups in two papers on Zenodo.

The papers provide suggestions on how stakeholders can use preprint review in research assessment and editorial process and includes a policy template for journals that will use preprint reviews in their publication decisions.
