    I feel that people tend to fall on two sides of a dividing line: they take responsibility for their own actions and feelings, or they do not. This pandemic is a catalyst for change, granting each of us this same opportunity for growth. Which side will you be on?

    Adversity is always a teaching moment if we approach it with a healthy mindset. Be it online harassment and bullying, or a pandemic. Each moment is an opportunity for introspection. The more difficult and challenging it is, the more room for growth.

    We believe that through systemic evaluation reform, science can begin to break free from the 'tyranny of metrics', and begin to adopt a new functional role within society, particularly in the context of the United Nations Sustainable Agenda 2030.

    Here, we discuss how the unholy trinity of Web of Science, New Public Management, and citation metrics combined to create this dysfunction. We propose three solutions to simultaneously combating its threat: policing the police; opening up peer review; and starting from scratch.

    Every researcher knows the “publish and/or perish” culture: the fact that we are evaluated primarily based on the journals that we publish in, rather than any intrinsic merit or quality of our work. Countless ink has been spilled criticising this system.

    It’s always so good when researchers from the Global North collaborate with researchers from from the Global South

    Growing pet peeve, papers focusing/reflecting on issues in the global south/global south countries without including any authors from those places. Next project, gathering gs allies to extract some data and write perspectives from/on the global north

    Some lessons from the Coronavirus so far. 1. Inequities are everywhere in our society. Most of them are structurally designed. 2. There was always enough money. Political will was the barrier. 3. Some will take responsibility, and seek to learn from this. And some will not.

    "MPs and Peers tended not to search for evidence in academic papers, but their staff and House Library staff do. Staff talked about their frustration at finding paywalls that restricted them from accessing information. Open access is crucial."

    1/ OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: I have left academia. Many of you know that I have been pursuing a faculty job in academia for the last couple of years. Those efforts have been unsuccessful. I've had a few phone interviews, but unfortunately nothing beyond that.

    When a scientific publisher provides free access to life-saving research during a pandemic, they show us that this decision is technically simple. Flip a switch. The decision to prevent access to similar life-saving research for literally EVERYTHING ELSE is purely financial.
