Authorea CEO and cofounder, Alberto Pepe, spent twelve years doing research (a few tears years  at href="https://www.authorea.com/inst/7198" target="_blank">CERN href="https://www.authorea.com/inst/7198">CERN  doing data science, an information science PhD at UCLA, and a 3-year Astrophysics Postdoc at Harvard). “During my Ph.D. and Postdoc I did not even apply to a single tenure-track job.
