This is a guest blog written by Philipp Koellinger, co-founder of DeSci Labs.

Introduction

As a scientist, I often feel frustrated by the painfully slow publishing process. And I frequently question the trustworthiness of papers I read and cite, particularly when they make bold claims without sharing the data or code to back them up. Does that sound familiar?

That’s why we started DeSci Labs. Our mission is to accelerate scientific progress by making research more accessible, transparent, and reliable.

We’re excited to share a range of recently-released updates and new features that will streamline how you search for, import, and cite your references in an Overleaf project if you have access to premium features.

A brief summary of what’s changed:

1. We’ve added an integration with Papers, meaning that if you use Papers as your reference manager, you can now connect it directly to Overleaf, just as you can with Zotero or Mendeley
2. We’ve introduced a more streamlined version of advanced reference search (a premium feature), making it quicker and easier to retrieve the references you need
3. We’ve simplified how Overleaf integrates with external reference managers such as Papers, Zotero and Mendeley, giving you a more flexible, dynamic workflow when managing your references and .bib file

Now let’s look at all these changes a little more closely…

Update: We've released Server Pro 5.3.2 — this is a hotfix release with bugfixes to instances running LDAP (new rate limiters), and access to Overleaf documentation when using a proxy for external requests. You can read the full release notes here.
