 ## An ambitious push to unlock protein dynamics
 Static protein structures have transformed our understanding of life. But they are snapshots of molecules that are fundamentally in motion. Proteins’ function is critically linked to this motion. Uncovering these motions will unlock new ways to understand disease, design better drugs, and engineer proteins with precise, tunable function. Read more about the project [here](https://diffuse.science/posts/expanding_diffuse/).

 ## Why now?
 Static structures have plateaued. Most of our structural biology models only encode a single snapshot. But the underlying data provides a much richer view into the dynamics of these molecules. However, extracting this rich information involves changing the entire ecosystem, including how we collect, model, encode, and interpret these signals.

 We are a distributed team experimenting with new ways to fund multiple parts of the pipeline simultaneously, enabling team members to design and coordinate across dimensions. We believe in a more holistic approach to rethinking what changes are possible and scalable.
 
-## Novel publishing practices
+## Open Science
 
-We strive for scientific rigor while ensuring our tools are broadly useful, as widespread adoption across the structural biology community will amplify our impact in both basic and translational science. To achieve this, we commit to opening our processes and [sharing our methods as early as possible](https://diffuse.science/posts/).
+We envision a future in which all research outputs are shared rapidly and openly. To support this future, the DiffUSE Project is fully open, in line with [Astera's Open Science Policy](https://zenodo.org/records/17795285). We aim to rapidly share our data and results through multiple formats. 
 
 ### How we are sharing our science
 
-We are experimenting with novel [publishing practices](https://zenodo.org/records/15548989) outside of traditional journals, in accordance with Astera’s publication policy.
