The rapid growth and diversification of research and data in online environments over recent decades has revealed the limitations of the current publishing system in meeting the needs of modern research. In response, DeSci Labs has developed open-source software that enables researchers to share manuscripts, data, code, and other outputs as versionable research objects with persistent identifiers on a decentralized peer-to-peer network accessible to all. This system leverages advanced web3 infrastructures, including the newly upgraded Publish by DeSci Labs, built on the CODEX framework.

DeSci Publish simplifies and incentivizes the adoption of best open science practices while offering enhanced features for effective knowledge sharing, both now and in the future. Notable innovations include a streamlined upload process that consolidates different research components and generates a link for journal submissions, incorporating related data and code. Additionally, a machine learning feature estimates an article's novelty and potential impact. Leonie will guide you through these features, from the basics to the groundbreaking ML-based tool introduced in September.
