Preprints Rarely Change After Peer Review
ruthstarkman · x · 2026-07-12
This Nature article discusses how preprints typically do not undergo significant changes after peer review and are rarely retracted.
The core conclusion is that preprints are not merely "unreviewed drafts"; in many cases, the content differs little before and after formal publication, and retraction is not the norm. These findings help recontextualize the role of preprints in scientific communication.
