Thought this was an excellent and concise video on the topic, figured I’d share with you all.

What are your favorite journals, publications, other sources?

    I have to note that aRxiv and bio-aRxiv are NOT PEER REVIEWED and are specifically mentioned in the video

    It may be easier to go backward but you won’t know what parts might be wrong which defeats the purpose of doing research. One detail can affect the entire paper

    Edit: as below commenter pointed out, they’re also not not peer reviewed, so you can definitely find some!

      They are not not peer reviewed, its just that its a pre-print server, so they generally appear before getting peer reviewed. When they are, and published, it is usually really easy to see that also on arXiv.
