Peer review is a staple of science, a seemingly inescapable barrier that every researcher must cross in order to share their work with the world.

This post highlights production changes and plans for PKP software versions 3.5 and 3.6 that will lower the cost of publishing, increase accessibility, and support new publishing models.

Every so often, we get a chance to look back at our past work. Sometimes it’s with a cringe, sometimes with nostalgia, and occasionally, with an opportunity to rebuild.

I originally wrote and published this essay at The Connected Ideas Project, an excellent newsletter by my good friend and colleague Alexander Titus. If you’re not reading TCIP you’re missing out. After I finished my postdoc I was faculty in academia for eight years before moving to a consulting firm for five years, then joined a biotech startup two years ago.
