Why researchers should also do policy - tackling the big questions:
⚠️ But my research is my priority
⚠️ What will I get out of it?
⚠️ But I don't have time!

Martin Karlsson (Lateral) gave us a great demo: what does #DeSci look like in practice?

In his presentation, he shared a great point: “The world is too complex for legacy coordination mechanisms”.

This is interesting: “We find that papers and patents are increasingly less likely to break with the past in ways that push science and technology in new directions.” (Park, Leahey, & Funk, Nature 613, 2023). It poses fundamental questions to how science is done (e.g. quality vs quantity) but also a concern as we need more, not less, disruptive knowledge to accelerate the sustainability transition. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-05543-x #scipol #researchpolicy #scientometrics

The White House OSTP has published a helpful FAQ on their public access guidance - worth a read given the implications on all research stakeholders and, importantly, publishers.

Russian scientists should be given the opportunity to abandon "Putin's affiliations"

👉 http://dx.doi.org/10.13140/RG.2.2.36348.21126

#Paradox - West universities are trying to boycott "putin's science", and at the same time they pay russian scientists salaries, give them access to infrastructure, and then the achievements of these researches fall into the treasury of russian universities, where it can be used by putin's propaganda ☠️ .

Even ChatGPT knows why we shouldn't use bibliometric indicators alone in research assessment... 🤷‍♂️

Our colleague @drAChiarelli is attending a WHEF policy conference on the topics of research integrity and research reproducibility.

The conversation on reproducibility is just starting - if you wish to explore this topic in more detail, do take a look at the Knowledge Exchange landscape review "The Art of Publishing Reproducible Research Outputs" at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5521077

This result from #MIT is really interesting and should be included in innovation policies: how to promote innovation systems if multinational companies centralize their R&D in rich countries?

Hello #fediverse is there a way to search for hashtags beyond your own instance and follows? Would like to connect with peeps tooting about #ResearchCulture #ResearchPolicy #SciencePolicy #ResearcherDevelopment but it seems quiet round here. Any tips for a #newbie #TwitterMigrant?

@jkanev that's good to hear, thanks for replying, very useful! I'm struggling with hashtags too. Though I like this instance and there's lots of interesting people here, I'm not sure if I've found my home. I'm #AcademicAdjacent, so looking for #ResearchCulture and #ResearchPolicy peeps but they don't seem to hang out round here. It's improving as I follow more people. All a learning curve 😊

RT @ALLEA_academies: “Overpromising on what #science can do and underdelivering are sure ways to undermine public #trust in science.”

Revisit Prof @mleptin's insightful keynote at ALLEA's symposium #TransformingScience @ERC_Research.
