He noted a high frequency of errors or other problems in the work, and he thought it was a shame that such feedback could not be shared widely. Eventually, this experience helped him hatch the idea for what became PubPeer. Photo courtesy of Brandon Stell.

    CU research IDs new strategy to fight species extinction
    The go-to-strategy for rescuing threatened species has long been to set aside tracts of healthy land to spread out in, and migration corridors that allow them to mix with other populations, gaining resilience via a broadened gene pool. Because habitat preservation isn’t always viable, introducing genetic diversity might keep threatened species viable, scientists find.
