Frontiers

How do we ensure scientific excellence at scale? Hear from Judyta S., Director of Publishing Operations, as she explains Frontiers' unique three-pronged approach to scientific excellence at scale—bringing together expert editorial leadership, dedicated research integrity teams, and advanced AI and technology, including AIRA. By uniting these three pillars, we safeguard quality at every stage of the publishing journey—from the first submission to final publication and beyond. The result is a peer review process that is rigorous, transparent, and built for scale.

During Davos 2026, Frontiers Science House closed with a powerful session on “The 2035 Science Roadmap,” moderated by Jennifer Schenker, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of The Innovator. The discussion brought together Henry Markram, Co-Founder of Frontiers, inait and the Open Brain Institute, alongside leaders from science, technology and industry, and concluded with closing reflections from Kamila Markram, CEO & Co-founder at Frontiers, on the role of open science in accelerating innovation and rebuilding trust between science and society. Key topics from the session included: • Brain-based AI and participant robots for industry and space exploration • Green technologies and sustainable ammonia production for energy and food security • Exponential technologies and mastery over matter • Open science as a driver of global collaboration and accelerated innovation • Bridging the gap between science and society to rebuild trust Speakers: Jennifer Schenker, Founder and Editor-in-Chief, The Innovator, Henry Markram, Founder, Frontiers, inait, Open Brain Institute, Zina Jarrahi Cinker, Ph.D., Chief Creator, XPANSE, Karen Baert, Co-founder & CEO, Ammobia, Jim Keravala, Chief Executive Officer, OffWorld Explore the full session highlights on The Innovator ➡️ https://lnkd.in/edbEXtJP #FrontiersScienceHouse #OpenScienceChampions

“What impressed me most was the willingness of researchers, publishers and infrastructure partners — from technology providers to funders and service organizations — to move beyond defending their positions” Ingo Rother - Managing Director, Berlin Institute for Scholarly Publishing (BISP)/Conference Director, APE - Academic Publishing in Europe That spirit of openness set the tone for the Mind the Gap: AI in Publishing workshop. Across discussions, participants focused less on competing interests and more on shared priorities: trust, accountability, transparency, and safeguarding scholarly quality. AI in publishing isn’t a “publisher vs. researcher” debate. It’s a collective challenge — and an opportunity — for the entire scholarly ecosystem. Real progress will come from continued dialogue, listening across roles, and keeping all stakeholders engaged as AI tools and policies evolve.

In a recent interview with The Innovator, Henry Markram, Co-Founder of Frontiers, inait and the Open Brain Institute, speaks with Jennifer Schenker, Founder and Editor-in-Chief of The Innovator, about how 40 years of brain research are shaping a new era of brain-based artificial general intelligence. From the Blue Brain Project and open science to causal learning and inait’s approach to adaptive machines, the conversation explores what comes after today’s knowledge-based AI — and what it means to build AI that truly understands the world.

"I really appreciated the format of the ‘Mind the Gap: AI in Publishing’ workshop: short, sharp talks to get everyone aligned" Harry Blom, PhD, Executive Vice President STM, De Gruyter Brill, Inc. During the workshop at #APE 2026 co-organized by Dr. Jess Rohmann, Postdoctoral Researcher at Berlin Institute of Health, QUEST Center for Responsible Research and Dr. Anke Beck, Head of Public Affairs and Advocacy for Europe at Frontiers, what stood out in the discussions was that AI in editorial workflows is about far more than efficiency. Participants consistently highlighted deeper gaps around decision-making, trust, and responsible AI use, alongside the need to safeguard editorial expertise and core scholarly skills. A timely reminder that AI challenges reach to the heart of research and publishing values, and that these conversations must continue to evolve just as quickly as the technology itself.

📢 New FAIR² Data Article https://lnkd.in/eJKPrRp5 and Data Portal https://lnkd.in/emhrrmwa now published in Frontiers in Environmental Science, by Sebastian Steibl, a Frontiers Planet Prize National Champion. The newly released interactive data portal for Indo-Pacific atolls harmonizes biodiversity and environmental data across 310 atolls, integrating: 🔹 Species inventories across six terrestrial guilds 🔹 Seabird population estimates 🔹 Land, reef, oceanographic, and climate variables 🔹 Human population data and historical military use 🔹 90 standardized variables and 4,215 species records Built under FAIR² principles, the dataset is structured to support transparent and reproducible biodiversity analyses, with species records linked to external taxonomic reference identifiers (including GBIF, BOLD, and NCBI) to enable cross-database interoperability. #FAIRData #FAIRSquared #EnvironmentalScience

🎉 A major milestone for our journals: Frontiers in Physics and Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences are now officially Recognized Journals of the European Physical Society (EPS).   You can view us on the list here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/gCigFsfa What does this mean? EPS aims to provide a forum for collaboration and advancement in physics. We are proud to have our journals be recognized as a part of that effort. This achievement signals that our journals uphold a rigorous and unbiased peer review.   📑 Thank you to all our authors, editors, and reviewers for their high-quality work that makes this recognition possible. This achievement helps us continue our mission here at Frontiers: keeping science open for everyone.
