Why we’re expanding the openRxiv Labs Curvenote Reader experiment

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.

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

Curvenote Reader is now live across half a million bioRxiv preprints - bringing inline citations, zoomable figures, and connected context directly into the reading flow. Find out how we modernized one of science's biggest preprint repositories without disrupting a single workflow.

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…

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…

What's the point of a note-taking app?

The true purpose of a note-taking app is to facilitate deep learning through three interconnected processes—externalizing ideas, internalizing them into new insights, and resurfacing them over time—and good design should minimize accidental friction while preserving the productive friction that enables genuine understanding.

What have note-taking PKMs accomplished, really?

As somebody who writes a lot, I've always been interested in personal knowledge management systems and note-taking apps. But what do these frameworks and methodologies actually give to researchers and the broader world? Has there been a meaningful increase of wisdom since these became popular? I went to look for an answer.
