💥New: "papers garnering the highest citation counts tended to be associated with longer reviewer reports, exceeding the average length." #ScholComm @A_Maddi_ wp.me/p4m9em-d19

Matthew Inglis, Elizabeth Gadd and Elizabeth Stokoe highlight eight qualities associated with high-scoring statements and suggest how they might improve environment statements in REF2029. #ResearchCulture wp.me/p4m9em-cSm

✍️women are not cited less per article than men, but that they accumulate fewer citations over time and at the career level. Cary Wu argues that a focus on research productivity is key to understanding and closing the gender citation gap. #AcWri wp.me/p4m9em-cVD

Opinion: Language of the REF reveals shifting expectations. Environment statements map changing approaches to equality, say @MJInglis, @lizziegadd and @LizStokoe. researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-vie…

Happy to share that my first first-author paper is out @TheLancet! Here, we present a case of PMO, a striking neurological condition of visual perception that causes faces to appear distorted, and the first photorealistic visualizations of how these distortions are seen.

How much was a 4* impact case study worth in REF2021? New analysis by @JonCollett5 suggests they could be worth between £480,000 (panels C&D) and £880,000 (A&B) over the REF cycle. Thanks @SimonRKerridge for review feedback and Jon for insightful analysis! fasttrackimpact.com/post/how-much-…
