TO PDF OR NOT TO PDF?

In September we organized NeuroLibre Day, and the most provocative lecture came from Dmitry Novikov

I am a well-known PDF hater, but Dmitry made me question my assumptions and rethink the publishing incentive structure

Applications for this year's Open Science Prizes from The Neuro open March 15 - Don't miss your chance to have your hard work recognized through one of these generous awards! Find all the details here: www.mcgill.ca/neuro/open-s...

Citations are cheap!

We need to put greater emphasis on reusing somebody's work (data, code, workflows) instead of just citing it
