This article argues that "a simplistic reinterpretation of DORA" (but not DORA itself) is guilty of "bibliometric denialism".

That is the reproductibily part of #OpenScience, the subject of the day at the #cernnasa summit.

All but forgotten, the heart of the machine : opening processes along with #opensoftware, #opendata and #openaccess for papers and books.

All this with a direct link whith #ResearchAssessment, as show today by @mostlyphysics.

2 presentations by #GraspOS partners are available in our #OpenScience and Responsible #ResearchAssessment community on #Zenodo

➡️ @laurakoohoo from CSC at the EuroCRIS Members Meeting in Brussels #MM2023Brussels: https://zenodo.org/record/8006695

➡️ @vergoulis and Serafeim Chatzopoulos from Athena RC at the Extended Sematic Web Conference in Hersonissos #ESWC2023: https://zenodo.org/record/7984968

@petersuber "In addition, institutions must not promote or recruit researchers solely on the basis of the number of published papers or citations. Instead, assessments will now be judged by indicators of quality, such as how innovative the work is, whether it represents a significant scientific advance, or its contribution to solving important societal problems."

📢 Glad to announce that the @EU_Commission will be an observer👀 to the @CoARAssessment Steering Board.

We are committed to continuously supporting this important initiative! ✅

A great way for research institutions to kick-start research assessment reform journey and review current practices with view to the #CoARA commitments!

EU-funded #GraspOS project invites #universities #funders and other organisations, who are or could become #CoARA signatories, to answer the landscape survey on #ResearchAssessment practices.

Deadline 28 May 2023. Distribute the survey in your networks!

🆕Over 500 signatories of the Agreement on Reforming #ResearchAssessment, from 41 countries! 🌍

Proud to see that the movement 🔄 we initiated 2 years ago has already succeeded in bringing together so many research organisations, across the #EUResearchArea and beyond🚀

I have been reflecting upon this event, and come to a few conclusions…

First, fields in this space have been very siloed. Most attendees were of the #researchintegrity perspective, but how do you differentiate this from #researchethics #openscience or #ResearchAssessment? These fields are different perspectives of the same issues and landscape. There were so many discussions of the competitive nature of research, but way too little about COLLABORATION!

A bit of fun exercising my mind around DORA* and authorship policies:

While immensely helpful for a range of purposes, does the #ICMJE statement around author- & contributorship structurally limit our view as to what we look for when evaluating individual's contributions to research?
https://www.icmje.org/recommendations/browse/roles-and-responsibilities/defining-the-role-of-authors-and-contributors.html

How much further do alternatives such as CRediT go?

Qualified #lotteries in academic selection contexts:

"[...] qualified lotteries under certain conditions produce considerable advantages: They help to overcome biases & noise with decisions, raise the quality and diversity of the shortlist from which the decision makers are selected, and reduce the hubris of leaders."
