Review Commons launches
We're excited to be an affiliate journal for Review Commons, the ASAPbio/EMBO platform for high-quality journal-independent peer-review in the life sciences, which went live on 09 December.
Early-career researchers can apply for up to £2,500 to offset the cost of travel and expenses to make collaborative visits to other labs around the world. Read about Peter’s experience in Switzerland, where he joined forces with the Lutolf lab to refine a protocol for producing gastruloids.

To continue working towards transparency around the editorial process, Development now publishes a ‘Peer review history file’ alongside published papers. Read more about the policy and see the reports for yourself in one the first papers to publish the reports (under the ‘Info & metrics’ tab).
