We’ve recently replaced Rapid PREreviews with <a href="https://content.prereview.org/introducing-structured-prereviews-on-prereview-org/" >Structured PREreviews</a >.
You can <a href="/preprints/doi-10.1101-2021.01.28.428724/write-a-prereview">write a Structured PREreview</a> now.
We’ll be updating older Rapid PREreviews like these soon.
