In this post, he shares his thoughts on work in the lab, the global use of open access literature, and stepping out of his comfort zones.
By Olivia Aguiar and Alice Fleerackers During the pandemic, more research was shared openly, more preprints were posted, and we saw an explosion in the public communication of science, particularly in mainstream media. In the long-term, these changes have the potential to foster more open, diverse, and inclusive approaches to research and bolster our capacity to face present and future societal challenges.
