mastodon 4.7.3A non-profit open-access journal for research in the life and biomedical sciences working to improve research culture and communication.
An #introduction to eLife's new Mastodon page!
We're an #OpenAccess not-for-profit journal that publishes and reviews #research in the life and biomedical sciences.
We want to improve the way research is practised and shared in part by working with early-career researchers #ECR and supporting #OpenSource technology.
