In the biomedical sciences most publications DO NOT end up on preprint servers before being peer-reviewed and accepted. Therefore most stories are "done" a year or more before they are published anywhere. Sometimes they are presented at conferences, but often only once the paper is in submission.
- coliveira 11y agoEach technical field decides the best way to handle new research. If what you said is true, this is a matter particular to this and similar fields. However, many articles such as the one linked above make it believe that Science as a whole has a big problem because of peer reviewing standards, which is NOT true. In fact, most fields already have procedures to disseminate and archive results in a way that does not conflict with traditional peer reviewing.
