Curvenote Reader brings a better reading experience to half a million openRxiv preprints

OpenRxiv & Curvenote’s new Reader launch took to the stage at FORCE11 2026

At FORCE11 2026, Curvenote showcased the newly launched Curvenote Reader deployed over all of openRxiv to enthusiastic feedback from scientific publishing leaders — with callouts on the innovation from the opening and closing keynotes as a meaningful step forward for open science.

Introducing Hypothesis commenting on bioRxiv and medRxiv: an updated way to engage with preprints - openRxiv

An important part of our mission at openRxiv is to collaborate with other organizations to improve science communication and promote interoperability. Preprints are just one part of the research workflow, and we want to ensure they are effectively integrated with the tools and communities that drive scientific progress. Today, we’re excited to share about another…

Launching openRxiv Labs - openRxiv

Over the last thirteen years, bioRxiv and medRxiv have grown into widely used infrastructure for rapid research sharing in biology and medicine. The reliability and researcher-first values that have defined these platforms since their founding remain central to how we operate, and building on the trust, partnerships, and community relationships researchers worldwide depend on is…

The Story behind the Science: Preprints of pandemic potential—how bioRxiv and medRxiv brought preprints to the life sciences

ABSTRACT The bioRxiv and medRxiv preprint servers brought preprinting to the life sciences and played a critical role in disseminating COVID research during the pandemic. Here, I reflect on the birth of bioRxiv and medRxiv and the crucial role so many members of the community played, our experience during the pandemic, and the launch of the new non-profit organization set up to oversee the servers. The pandemic was a stress test for bioRxiv and medRxiv that demonstrated their value and robustness. Under the umbrella of openRxiv, they are now poised to become long-term infrastructure underpinning a new publishing ecosystem.

openRxiv is an independent non-profit, the new organizational home for bioRxiv and medRxiv, enabling researchers to instantly share groundbreaking findings with the global scientific community.

Bluenotes: Community Notes for ATProto

I'll briefly demonstrate Bluenotes, a fork of the Bluesky with Community Notes. Then I'll discuss a proposed "Open Community Notes" standard and lexicon for Community Notes on ATProto, and discuss challenges such as preserving contributor anonymity and defending against manipulation.

Linking the world's research to the code it runs on - OpenAlex blog

Research relies on software. Software written by scientists, for science, runs through the entire modern research stack: NumPy and SciPy, R and ggplot2, Jupyter, BLAST, ImageJ, AlphaFold. Yet in the scholarly record, that software is nearly invisible. Software is not usually cited formally in publications and is usually just mentioned in the text, which means […]

The new way we’ll do science

Papers should become human-readable views over a graph of data, tools, results, and certificates.

Center for Open Science

At the Center for Open Science, our mission is to increase openness, integrity, and reproducibility of scholarly research. Promoting these practices within the research funding and publishing communities accelerates scientific progress

NLnet; Nanoarguments

Scientific knowledge is currently scattered across papers, repositories, and disconnected platforms, with no structured way to trace how claims connect to evidence or how arguments develop. Nanoarguments builds a framework and tools for creating, browsing, and contributing to a global, federated graph of scientific discourse and evidence. Researchers and their communities can collaboratively structure claims, evidence chains, and discussion as nanopublications, which are small, cryptographically signed Linked Data snippets with precise provenance and authorship, published to a decentralized peer-to-peer network. The project builds upon the Nanodash interface to help users browse, edit, and aggregate discourse and evidence graphs, and integrates with dokieli to enable in-context authoring of nanopublications as inline annotations while reading or writing a document. A bidirectional ActivityPub connector bridges the nanopublication network and the fediverse, allowing discourse threads to start as social exchanges and crystallize into persistent, machine-readable evidence records. The project will be piloted with early adopter research groups in discourse and evidence modeling. All components will be released as open-source modules that other systems can build upon.

Two billion citation links in Crossref help research travel further - Crossref

We’ve recently reached an important milestone for the research nexus: the works in our metadata corpus are now connected with over 2 billion citation links! This is a great opportunity to share a dedicated dataset and discuss why these are important for science.
