**How Peer Community in Registered Reports lets researchers take back control over the publishing process**
([webinar](https://osf.io/kwf65/) | [slides](https://osf.io/4fvkt/))
There is a desperate need to reform the production and dissemination of scholarly outputs to increase transparency, reproducibility, timeliness, academic rigor, and equity. I will discuss what researchers are doing to address these issues by sharing ways to tackle biases and facilitate higher quality research that puts researchers back in control using Peer Community in Registered Reports - a free, supra-journal platform that reviews and recommends registered reports across all research fields.
