When the policy exists to share postprints freely on personal sites, why do researchers often refrain from doing so, and what incentives or constraints drive that hesitation?
There has been extensive discussion about the funding model for research publications. Large publishing houses do not fund research themselves; instead, they charge substantial subscription fees or open-access publishing fees. Keeping articles behind paywalls can impede open science and broad access to knowledge. Nevertheless, many publishers grant authors the right to share postprints of their papers immediately on their non-commercial personal blogs or websites. Despite this permission,...

Should a big research (e.g., PhD) be published as one comprehensive high-impact paper or several smaller, faster publications?
Should a big study perhaps a PhD student’s research be published as one comprehensive, high-impact paper or split into several smaller, focused publications? A single major paper can offer a cohesive, in-depth contribution with broader impact, but may delay dissemination. Multiple smaller papers can communicate findings more quickly and stimulate ongoing research, yet may lack the unified context of a larger work. What choice is the best - having a comprehensive paper in high impact journals...

How do you balance privacy and public health in a pandemic?
Digital contact tracing involves a level of surveillance that could make a lot of people uncomfortable, especially given the involvement of large technology companies with spotty records on privacy. However, contract tracing represents one of the most potent methods for combating the pandemic and is only useful if implemented on a wide scale. How do we balance privacy and public health in these times?

Is Oxidative Stress sufficient by itself as an indicator and compelling basis for a carcinogenic concern?
Oxidative Stress as a Precursor and Mechanism for Carcinogenicity IARC and others (Smith et al) have identified 10 key characteristics which may be used/considered in the evaluation of carcinogenicity, one of which is oxidative stress. How strong or compelling, if at all, would the data need to be for considering OS as a putative and defensible MOA for carcinogenicity, or would there need to be other tangential/correlative data (e.g., tumors) available. In other words, is OS sufficient by...

What is the relationship between free radicals and the inflammation process during Chronic diseases?
OxInflammation process is a complex and systemic event that occurs after cellular and tissue injury. The knowledge about both processes is that they coexist, but already known that possibly the inflammatory response is responsible for the generation of a pro-oxidative environment due to the production of Free radicals and Reactive Oxygen species (ROS), especially in chronic diseases. In normal tissue occurs the activation of efficient machinery able to control the oxidative stress, however,...

A Ping is a single science-based question. The question comes from a fellow SciPinion Expert who is seeking input from the expert community. All participation in this service (i.e. asking or answering questions) is voluntary and anonymous if you prefer.
Can I post a Ping?
Yes, all SciPinion Experts are able to ask questions for the expert community to answer, provided you have Ping Credits. All Experts start with 3 Ping Credits (i.e., can ask 3 questions), and have the opportunity to earn more (e.g., by answering Pings from other experts, applying to panel opportunities).
Can I sponsor a Paid Ping?
Yes, please contact SciPinion if you would like to sponsor a Paid Ping.
What do I get for answering a Ping?
By answering a question from a fellow SciPinion Expert you earn 1 Ping Credit, which allows you to sponsor your own Ping (e.g., for every question you answer, you can ask your own question)
You also receive the satisfaction of helping your fellow experts and supporting the scientific community.
