    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Should researchers be paid to review papers? The question has long been fiercely debated. Now, a study has uncovered an apparent market for peer review, operating through third-party firms that offer services to scholarly publishers. In a preprint posted on MetaArXiv on 8 September, a team of researchers identified some 1,000 online advertisements for ‘freelance’ peer-reviewer jobs and report how they interviewed five working and retired researchers in India, Spain and the United Kingdom who

    Take a risk or play it safe? Neuronal tug-of-war helps the brain decide (opens the original)

    Some of the most rewarding decisions we make in life come with risk: do you take that job with a higher salary if it means moving to a new city and starting your life afresh? It’s an achingly tough choice.

In a study1 published in Nature Neuroscience on 15 September, researchers reco

    Human communication relies on more than just talking; we nod, shrug, move our hands and point with our fingers. For people with severe paralysis, brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) can convey intended speech or movement. Now, researchers have shown that a single brain implant can do both at once.

It uses artifi

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    A growing number of private firms are offering researchers artificial-intelligence tools for scrutinizing manuscripts before publication. One such system, developed by a start-up called QED Science in Tel Aviv, Israel, aims to judge whether life-sciences research is original and valid.
