Sciety homepage with Browse by category

We're currently using the categories provided by bioRxiv and medRxiv as the majority of evaluated and curated preprints are within the Life Sciences and expect to expand further if this proves a useful way to keep up to date. Please get in contact with your feedback on the categories.

Group management

Each group on Sciety now has the ability to manage their own group through an admin panel. Groups can now feature lists on their group pages and view reader engagement with an interactive dashboard. This offers greater autonomy for groups to easily curate preprints, promote their work and report on interaction with the review and curation activity.

As a group admin, you will see a link to 'Manage this group' on the group page. Some groups may not have admins automatically assigned, if that is the case, please get in touch with the team.


🔭 What's next?

  • We will further improve the category filtering on Sciety and then continue our work to onboard new groups to Sciety.
