Open access datasets are critical to collaborative science, and they’re now required by many funding agencies. However, it would be helpful to quantify what makes certain datasets more practical and accessible than others, or how frequently the data are used. This fellowship will provide me with an opportunity to look into these questions from a new perspective. I’m also looking forward to working with the journal to see if adding some features to the submission system could increase the diversity of the peer reviewer pool.” Jim Cloern, Editor-in-Chief of L&O Letters, said, “Working with the Raelyn Cole Fellows is a blast because they are full of surprises and have taught me so much about the differences between their generation and mine. They have an intense interest in and passion for writing and publishing, and their commitment to sharing lessons learned and new perspectives with other early career researchers is inspiring. This fellowship provides an open-ended opportunity, and I can’t wait to see how Erin, Frank, and Jessie will use it.” The Raelyn Cole fellowship was established in 2017 through a generous gift from Dale Cole and family in memory of Raelyn Cole, Managing Editor of ASLO’s flagship journal, L&O, from 1965 to 1996, and recipient of ASLO’s Distinguished Service Award.
