I am an advocate for science communication. It’s something I am continuing to work on for myself and I greatly admire those who are good at it. The DSP is an exciting experiment to me and an opportunity to learn a lot about our behavior and motivations during peer review. I am looking forward to seeing how people articulate their comments and critiques in this new platform. I would like to avoid creating a publishing landscape that is only favorable to the “big shots”. We need to make sure that any changes to the existing system will help promote the careers of trainees, early stage investigators, and individuals from an underrepresented background.
