Why would they have to wait for the paper to come out? Couldn't they just publish the steps in a blog post or something before the journal has approved the paper?
- lucubratory 3y agoBecause they don't want to be scooped, essentially. They want the first accepted, peer reviewed, published paper in a high profile journal about RTAPS to be their paper. I have a lot of issues with literal currency being involved in academia, industry domination and patenting and the like, but the real currency of academia is reputation. I'm not going to begrudge them that.
