ResearchGate Creates Open Review Feature
ResearchGate launched Open Review, a feature that allows its members to publish open and transparent reviews of any papers they have worked with, cited, or read; request reviews of research; and discuss publications with authors and experts. ResearchGate’s goal is to evaluate research in a new way to discover whether it is reproducible.Kenneth Ka-Ho Lee from The Chinese University of Hong Kong published the first Open Review on a Nature article about stem cells that has received negative feedback. Lee used Open Review to publish proof that the findings in the article were impossible to reproduce. “This is what ResearchGate was made for,” Lee noted in the press release. Source: ResearchGate
