Embrace preprints and set biomedical information free

Summary:

"Science is about discovery. But discovery does little good unless it is shared. The way we have traditionally shared information in biomedicine — submitting articles to peer-reviewed journals — can add a year or more to publication. I believe that preprints can dramatically speed up information-sharing without harming the scientific process."
