Realigning incentives for biomedical researchers and journals through researcher-shared outputs

In this preprint the authors propose a shift in what counts in the biomedical sciences: researchers should be recognized for what they choose to share on their own terms and timeline (for example as preprints), not what journals select. And journals should be compensated for the execution of services, not for exclusive publication.
