Proud to share this new paper by Gal Manella and myself

I'm delighted to share our last preprint entitled "Meta-Research: Citation needed? #Wikipedia and the #COVID19 pandemic" biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Thanks to Omer Benjakob and rona aviram for the amazing work!

With coronavirus being deemed an #infodemic, Jonathan Sobel, rona aviram and myself set out to find out: Which sources informed Wikipedia's massive pool of COVID-19 articles during the pandemic's first wave #THREAD WikiResearch #OpenAccess #OpenScience biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

Had the great pleasure of going on this super exciting new podcast together with academic partners Jonathan Sobel & rona aviram to discuss our latest research on Wikipedia and coronavirus! Follow them and check out episode 2 when its out!

Our interview by Preprints in Motion podcast on our #Wikipedia research related to #Covid_19 sources is out. We had a great time discussing #preprints and peer-reviewed papers and I hope you will enjoy the end result. x.com/MotionPod/stat… biorxiv.org/content/10.110… rona aviram Omer Benjakob

Our work "Citation needed? #Wikipedia #bibliometrics during the first wave of the #COVID19 pandemic" is finally out in GigaScience. I'm really proud of what we did together with Omer Benjakob and rona aviram. academic.oup.com/gigascience/ar…

What did you last learn on #Wikipedia? For us, it was we can use the open encyclopaedia as a tool to research the history of science How? See our new preprint, using the #CRISPR field as case-study biorxiv.org/cgi/content/sh… Omer Benjakob Research - Learning Planet Institute

Our latest study is out! We propose using #Wikipedia as a historiographical source for contemporary science, using #CRISPR as our test case. Out now on PLOS One w Omer Benjakob Learning Planet Institute BIG thanks to all co-authors and friends for your hard work! journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

“Imagine we could see a scientist’s revisions on their papers. That would be the equivalent of what we’re doing... it's like an MRI of the scientific consensus” - Pola Lem Times Higher Education on our Wikipedia & CRISPR study - now out on PLOS One w rona aviram timeshighereducation.com/news/wikipedia…

In #SRBR2024 #Wikithon, we'll be looking at editing chronobiology pages. In this paper, rona aviram Omer Benjakob examine edits to "Circadian clock" and "Circadian rhythm" and reveal how arguments and paradigm shifts are encoded in the pages' metadata: buff.ly/3SHjjyH
