This Backstory describes the development of a research article published in Cell Stem Cell that was originally submitted to Community Review, a program wherein a manuscript is simultaneously considered at multiple Cell Press journals. The article, a demonstration of stem cell-derived trophoblast organoids from the group of Thorold Theunissen (https://www.cell.com/cell-stem-cell/fulltext/S1934-5909(22)00157-6), was the first Community Review submission to be published at Cell Stem Cell. In this Backstory, I introduce the topic of the research article, discuss how the article was improved during peer review, and relate the authors’ experience with the Community Review process.

这个背景故事描述了一篇发表在Cell Stem Cell上的研究文章的发展过程，该文章最初提交给 Community Review，这是一个在多个 Cell Press 期刊上同时考虑手稿的项目。这篇文章展示了来自 Thorold Theunissen (https://www.cell.com/cell-stem-cell/fulltext/S1934-5909(22)00157-6) 小组的干细胞衍生的滋养层类器官，是第一个社区评论提交将在Cell Stem Cell上发表。在这个背景故事中，我介绍了研究文章的主题，讨论了在同行评审期间如何改进文章，并将作者的经验与社区评审过程联系起来。
