Preprints: The what/why/how of a faster dissemination of research

InfraVis Seminar Series: Preprints: The what/why/how of a faster dissemination of research Abstract: In the fast-paced world of scientific discovery, rapid dissemination of research findings is crucial for accelerating progress and knowledge sharing. However the traditional publishing system hinders this process leading to delays, increased costs, and limited access. Preprints, preliminary versions of scientific manuscripts that have not undergone formal peer review, have emerged as game-changers dismantling barriers and enabling immediate sharing of scientific ideas.

The Dome has a screen size of just under 300 square meters, weighs approximately 2,500 kg and is suspended from the ceiling by 14 chains.
The Dome is used for both public screenings and visualization research, which places high demands on image quality. The visual experience is created by six separate projectors which together provide a total resolution of 8K x 8K (however approx. 7K x 7K unique pixels after blending).
