There's been some rolling discussion of how research publishing should work (i.e., might be improved), especially as it relates to Synthetic Biology.

I'd like to propose a BYO working lunch on Thursday October 6 from noon to 1:30p to discuss current thoughts.
If this date/time don't work, please suggest another date time (before October 10).

Please add your name to the list if you will attend.
Please add your ideas/questions below that you would like to discuss.

Attending:

  1. Drew
  2. BC - can't make it before 1pm
  3. Reshma
  4. Natalie
  5. Austin Che
  6. Jason

Things to discuss:

  1. Do we need a Synthetic Biology specific journal?
  2. Does the peer review process, as practiced work?
  3. Is peer review needed for engineering research articles?
  4. What features would we like for our papers? Reader comments? Reader Wiki?
  5. How should the structure of a paper be changed to reflect things like, well, the Internets?
  6. What existing journals are the most appropriate/receptive venues for publication of SB work?
  7. How is publishing on SB topics different from any other field?
  8. What are the other (if any) alternate publishing models already out there?
