About Us

We are a group of software engineers and biologists passionate about improving scientific manuscripts on a large scale. Our goal is to process every manuscript in the biomedical sciences as it is being submitted for publication, and provide customized feedback to improve that manuscript. Our members have created tools that check for common problems in scientific manuscripts, including information needed to improve transparency and reproducibility. Our tools were designed separately, but we are currently building pathways that allow the tools to work together and provide a single, integrated report. Want to learn more? Visit the “People" page to see our members, the “COVID preprints” page to learn about how we’re using our tools to screen COVID preprints posted on bioRxiv or medRxiv, or click “Screening tools” above to learn more about our tools. See our reviews on the Sciety website: https://sciety.org/groups/screenit/lists
