tiddibuh comments on I'm E.O. Wilson, biologist, researcher, theorist, naturalist, and author, most recently, of Letters to a Young Scientist. AMA!

"Hi Dr. Wilson, firstly thank you for doing this AMA. How do you envision the internet changing how science is conducted and results are disseminated? Do you think open-access journals will become the norm? permalink [–]edwardowilson[S] 13 points 1 day ago As one of the early supporters of open-access journals, I remain very much in favor. We should have an option for publication that avoids the possibility of unreasonable obstruction from bias reviewers and editors. The outcome of the conclusions in such a paper and reputation of its author(s) will be settled through additional research and other forms of testing."
