It's world mental health day (10th October) and it feels like the perfect moment to discuss mental health in academia. We all know that academia can be challenging, so say the least. Between endless deadlines, tough competition, and the constant pressure of “publish or perish”, it’s no wonder so many researchers struggle with stress and burnout - rates of up to 3x the average population.

Our goal is to challenge the status quo, embrace innovation, and create meaningful, lasting change to academia across preprinting and open science, trust in research and academic culture.

Preprints and journal publications. Both are research outputs in a narrative style that look very similar. But are they really so similar? We explore their similarities and differences in this short video. Sign up for the Rippling Ideas newsletter (https://ripplingideas.beehiiv.com/subscribe). Fol

Advocating for preprints in the life sciences, more trustworthy science and a better academic culture.

We recently published our first external article in which we proposed a range of trust signals that could replace outdated and poor proxies. You can read that article here. But why do we need to change the current proxies? False flags of trust The current markers of trust in a given scientific article are based on proxies that have no bearing on individual articles, on name recognition or on a deeply flawed peer review system.
