DESCRIPTION:Daniela Saderi\nDiscover PREreview\, an open platform that f
 acilitates the collaborative writing of preprints reviews by a growing com
 munity of contributors.\n\nEveryone welcome\, whether early career researc
 her or not\, from the Life Sciences or from any other discipline!\n\nThe p
 resentation will be followed by drinks!\n\nRegister here!\n\n-----\n\nBeca
 use of its fundamental role in research evaluation\, scientific peer-revie
 w should be an important component in the training of early-career researc
 hers. The vision behind PREreview is that there is a potential for every 
 scientist to post\, read\, and engage with preprints.\n\nWith the phenomen
 al growth in their adoption in the biological science\, preprints evaluati
 on in the open is likely to become standard practice of scholarly publishi
 ng in the future. In order to maximize the positive impact of such practic
 e\, it is important to help researchers see the benefits of sharing their 
 work openly and exchanging feedback at a point in time when it’s most us
 eful\, and in a way that is constructive\, inclusive\, and rewarding to th
 em.\n\nStarted in September 2017 by Daniela Saderi\, Samantha Hindle\, and
  Monica Granados\, the PREreview project is funded by the Alfred P. Sloan 
 Foundation and the Wellcome Trust\, as well as sponsored by the non-profit
  organization Code for Science and Society.\n\nThrough the lens of her per
 sonal experience\, Daniela Saderi will share with the audience the princip
 les that are driving this project forward\, as well as the challenges that
  are often coupled with working  at the intersection of academia and a gl
 obal movement promoting open scholarship.\n\n-----\n\nSpeaker's bio\nDanie
 la Saderi has recently defended a Ph.D. thesis in neuroscience at Oregon H
 ealth & Science University\, USA. She previously earned a Master’s degre
 e in Neuroscience from the University of Trieste/SISSA and a Bachelor’s 
 degree in molecular biology from the University of Milan. She currently is
  a Mozilla Fellow for Science\, working on the growth and sustainability o
 f PREreview. As the co-founder of this project\, she wants to promote op
 en practices in academia\, with the goal of improving reproducibility and 
 collaboration. You can find Daniela on Twitter\, LinkedIn and Github.
