How should scientific discoveries be shared with the world?
At the APS Global Physics Summit, the editors behind APS Open Science, a new fully open-access journal from the American Physical Society, explain their vision for a more transparent and collaborative future for research.
Boyana Konforti and Badreddine Assouar introduce the journal’s mission: creating a home for high-quality physics research while also welcoming datasets, software advances, replication studies, and even negative or null results—important steps in the scientific process that often go unpublished.
To see how this idea resonates with the next generation of researchers, we head out into the meeting to talk with early-career physicists about how they communicate their work, what they wish they could share more openly, and whether the physics community is ready for a new model of scientific publishing.
