A wonderful post Hilda! We are forever grateful for your contributions as a writer for the PLOS Blogs community, and for the conversations you’ve helped shape around science and medicine.

We’re thrilled that this recent @plosone.org paper introducing “Likweli”, a newly identified monkey species, captured the attention of global media audiences, including coverage from the BBC, @nytimes.com, @washingtonpost.com, and more. Read the article at plos.io/4vT6liK.

Join us at #ESA2026 in Salt Lake City! 🌿 Our team will be available to discuss research across ecology and sustainability and share more about PLOS Ecosystems and PLOS Sustainability and Transformation. @ecologicalsociety.bsky.social

The first research articles have now been published in our new journal, PLOS Aging and Health. These papers mark an important milestone for our journal, showcasing open access research advancing understanding of aging and health across disciplines. Read the first articles: plos.io/4w3zVTq

A newly recognized species of African monkey has been described in research published in @plosone.org. It is only the fifth new species of African monkey to be described in the last 75 years. Read the paper: plos.io/3Rcxu1W

On May 29 2026, the Office of Management and Budget published a proposed rule change that would fundamentally alter how federal research funding is allocated in the US. Read our response to the proposed changes: plos.io/4vrhOFO

Research assessment is more than articles and citations. Open practices can show how research is shared, reused, and made accessible. Explore these trends #OpenScienceIndicators with @dataseerai.bsky.social, now covering 187,400 open access articles. Explore the dashboard: plos.io/4oW0c3k

Superworms might offer a faster, safer way to prep #Museum skeletal specimens. @plosone.org authors walk through the practical advantages of this method in this new video.

We are proud to be sponsoring the @ukrepro.bsky.social (UKRN) Conference taking place 8–9 July 2026. We look forward to engaging with researchers, institutions, funders, and stakeholders, and sharing updates on our work to strengthen open science practice. #UKRN2026JoinUs

We anticipate this being part of a broader and ongoing conversation and welcome input on how we can improve.

This includes how prevalent the practice is in the community already. The outcome of these conversations is that we have been able to update our code policies on PLOS Biology and PLOS Medicine this year, and they now have the same expectations for code sharing as PLOS Computational Biology.

We have done in-depth analyses and interviews with research communities and our editors to ensure that any roll out of additional code requirements are clear, easy to understand, consistently applied, and reflect the nuance specific to that research community.

Hi there, thanks for your question. We are constantly working with the different communities associated with our journals to ensure that our policies meet the community needs and continue to drive open science and the attribution and re-use of research outputs.
