Scientific content remains trapped in static formats that limit reuse, attribution, and machine readability, despite the availability of modern tooling that makes this possible and better matches how scientists conduct research. This workshop, led by openRxiv and Continuous Science Foundation, addresses this challenge through practical implementation rather than consensus-driven standardization.
In the world of scientific publishing, new standards are often met with a groan, followed by someone sharing that xkcd about "there being 14 competing standards… now 15." It's funny because it's true — sometimes. The evolution from ZIP to HDF5 to Zarr tells that story perfectly.
Anton Molina and b.next are pioneering modular science—breaking research into reusable pieces that can be shared in days instead of years. Their Nucleus ecosystem uses Developer Notes to publish protocols and data as "data packets" others can immediately implement.
