[3/4] For my latest #preLight post, I have selected a recent preprint from Tom Hardwicke and colleagues addressing the question on how to clearly and consistently convey the editor and reviewer assessment to readers by analysing the new #eLife summaries? prelights.biologists.com/highlights/fin…

[1/4] Last year I joined preLights, a preprint highlights service run by early career researchers and hosted by @CO_Biologists. As a preLighter, I highlight exciting new preprints for the community.

Wanted to finally acknowledge this wonderful paper on ARF GTPases! Awesome work by Laura Quiron, Amélie Robert and others in the Jean-Francois Cote with proteomics by gingraslab Lots of new insights to ARFs and their role in cell biology journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/13…

Jeremy Good practice is to involve all authors in the publishing process (whatever their implication is). Send them the key steps: exact submitted version, feedback from journal (rejection/reviews), exact resubmitted version with rebuttal (which includes reviewer comments).

Only 17 days left to back up the Foldscope Microrealms Microscope projector project!! We are only at 31% of the funding goal. If we don’t hit the mark, the entire effort is washed out. If you ever used #Foldscope , please consider supporting and RT 🙏🏾
