\textbf{BROOKLYN, NY,~NOVEMBER 10, 2016 --}\\

Authorea
(\href{http://www.prweb.net/Redirect.aspx?id=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hdXRob3JlYS5jb20=}{http://www.authorea.com}),
the online collaborative platform for researchers, today announced it
has acquired The Winnower
(\href{http://www.prweb.net/Redirect.aspx?id=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cudGhld2lubm93ZXIuY29t}{https://www.thewinnower.com}),
a pioneering research publisher that offers advanced publishing tools to
individual authors.\\

With the~acquisition, Authorea enhances the foremost online platform for
researchers to write, cite, collaborate, host data, and publish all in
one place. The acquisition follows a financing round led by Lux Capital
and joined by Bloomberg Beta, the John S. and James L. Knight
Foundation, TechHammer, ff Venture Capital, and New York Angels.\\

``We are building a powerful toolset for researchers to collaborate,''
said Authorea CEO Dr. Alberto Pepe. ``We're supporting a research model
that puts the author first, allowing him or her to write technical
research documents online -- with a data layer underneath -- and to
control fully the output and dissemination of that effort. We're pleased
to welcome aboard the team at The Winnower, which will help provide
additional publishing options to our researchers.''\\

The Winnower, founded by Dr. Joshua Nicholson in 2014, is a leading
publisher of preprints and grey literature -- outputs that are often
overlooked by traditional publishers.\\

``The Winnower offers traditional research publishing tools, such as a
digital object identifier and permanent archival, to non-traditional
documents like Reddit r/science Ask-Me-Anything (AMA) transcripts, blog
posts, preprints, grant applications, citizen science reports, and
more,'' said Dr. Nicholson. ``We're delighted to join the
forward-thinking team at Authorea. We share the mission of accelerating
scientific discovery through superior research communication tools, and
a big part of that is providing authors the tools to control their
research from initial spark to output.''\\
