In the world of associations and professional networks, keeping members connected, informed, and engaged is critical to being successful. Expanding on the benefits provided by early listservs, online communities have become the go-to solution for capturing members' attention amid the overwhelming number of platforms and communication tools they already navigate.

**FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE**

Rockville MD - November 28, 2016 - In the opening ceremony of the annual[ iGEM](http://igem.org/Main_Page) (International Genetically Engineered Machine) Scientific Jamboree,[ PLOS](http://www.plos.org/) (Public Library of Science) announced their partnership with Breezio and Ars Biotechnica to continue to drive innovation into the scholarly publishing process with a new live peer review model. Since launching its first journal in 2003, PLOS has been a force for transformation in scholarly publishing, breaking with archaic traditions from previous generations. PLOS innovations accelerate science and medicine, from research discovery to influence tracking. Now they hope to do it again and further advance the speed of science by exploring the use of live community-based peer review for submissions from iGEM students.

Over a year ago at [iGEM 2015](http://2015.igem.org/Main_Page) I connected with the founder of BioTreks and showed him Breezio. In it, he saw the potential to make a monumental impact on how high school synthetic biology research could be taught, particularly with regard to exposing students to the publication experience and the peer review process. In order to achieve this, some of the biggest challenges we needed to address involved how the schedules of typical high school students, and their teachers/mentors, presented time constraints that were vastly different than college students. Another challenge was that he understood there would be great benefit to bringing high school synbio students together outside of iGEM to help with each other’s research, but he didn’t have an easy ‘place’ for everyone to meet.
