Call for Nominations to the ‘PeerJ Preprints Advisory Board’ – PeerJ Blog

With the current level of interest in ‘preprinting’, and the strong growth of PeerJ Preprints, it’s clear that there is a good level of interest in this concept in the academic community. As such, we feel that it makes sense to now establish an Advisory Board for PeerJ Preprints, to help advise us in our efforts going forward.
