Unblocking Scientific Publishing

Request for Ideas

 

Astera wants to improve scientific publishing. To develop new information tools that will make scientific dialogue faster and easier, we are sourcing ideas from the community. We encourage people to describe clear technological bottlenecks limiting innovation in life sciences publishing. What is blocking the ability to build advanced tools for open sharing and discussion of scientific information? What is holding you back and what needs to come next?
