| summary | I will talk about how scientists inform others about their results, with emphasis on the rise of scientific journals and the often excessive importance conferred upon work that appears in a few especially prestigious venues. A central element of this lecture will concern the use of the internet to make scientific information more accessible through public digital libraries, “open access” publication practices, preprint servers, and posts in social media. Problems associated with publication practices and peer review – including non-reproducibility, misconduct, and misuse of artificial intelligence – will also be discussed. |
