Preprints in Motion

Preprints in Motion is a shiny podcast diving into the fast paced world of preprinted science. Preprints have accelerated the speed at which scientific findings are shared and have helped to move academia towards a more equitable place. Join immunologist and open-science advocate Dr Jonny Coates as he talks to the early career researchers behind some of the most exciting and freshest preprints. Each episode discusses their recent science, career journey and their thoughts on science, academic life and so much more. Special episodes (and documentaries) will delve even deeper into the world of open science and the academic culture.

Preprints in Motion brings you the freshest science from the best experts all within your commute. So, plug-in, sit back and join us as we dive into the fascinating fast-paced world of preprints.

You can buy us a coffee and show your support (if you’d like) or record your own question to us.
