Publishing for the sake of publishing makes you a noise generator. How does it work? Quite simply: - The deeper your studies, the more each study takes, and the less you publish. This makes your research more interesting and easier to follow. - However, boring research pushes experts AWAY. If you publish a lot of shallow studies, experts won’t see much value in them. - With a lot of papers, you may feel like you’re getting a larger audience. BUT in reality, the quality of this audience drops. Experts will find better scientists to follow. Essentially - being a strong scientist means publishing high-quality research that experts happily follow. 📍In social media, one can notice a similar effect: Posting just because you “have to post something once a day” makes you a noise generator. Yes, more posts expose you to a wider audience. BUT this “noise” makes high-level professionals to unfollow you. They don’t have time for low-quality posts. As a result, the quality of your audience drops. Reclaiming the attention of professionals is much harder than being careful with what you post/publish. ❗Don't publish for the sake of publishing. Only publish to move science forward. Quality over quantity. Even if everyone pushes you into the opposite direction.

Es sabido que la calidad de la universidad privada en España es regulera, tirando a theputamierda (como la sanidad). Por eso hay que arruinar a la pública. Si no, solo los repetidores sin nota para entrar en la pública irían a la privada. Como, por cierto, ha pasado toda la vida.

📢 We are excited to announce that we are now accepting abstract submissions for our annual ISAPP-SFA meeting in Banff, Canada! 🇨🇦 The meeting will run from July 15-17th, 2025. Submit your abstracts before the 24th January! 📝 isapp-sfa.com/submit-abstrac…

PhD students are not there to do a defined piece of research for their supervisor(s) They are there to do their own research, which they design themselves (with guidance) If PIs want a specified piece of work done, hire someone to do it

Quizá cuando quieran frenar ya será tarde

Qué vueltas da la vida. Con 12 años andabas ahí, suspendiendo matemáticas con la cabeza gacha porque no sabías ni resolver un polinomio... Y mírate con 35, todo empoderado, discutiendo en Twitter con un doctor en Física que se cree lo del cambio climático, el muy subnormal.

- Hizo presidente al Mazón que no activó la emergencia. - Su partido cerró la Unidad Valenciana de Emergencias y dedicó el dinero a corridas de toros. - Niega el cambio climático. - Defendió edificar en zonas inundables. - Tiene la putísima poca vergüenza de señalar a otros.

"What is happening in Gaza is a profound moral failure of the international community, which has allowed these atrocities to persist unchecked." Will there be a future for newborns in Gaza? - The Lancet thelancet.com/journals/lance…

Estas dos noticias han supuesto un vuelco tremendo a lo que se "sabía" o se "esperaba" del cambio climático. Pero es que además están completamente relacionadas. Y más nos valdría entender bien, pero que muy bien, la relación directa entre ellas. Hilo 🧵

Are plant proteins a double-edged sword? Our review suggests fiber type and amount are key to unlocking their health benefits. Including fermentable fibers in plant-based foods may help reduce harmful proteolytic metabolites #NutritionScience #GutHealth #abstract" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

The amount of (suspected) AI-generated manuscripts and published papers is sharply rising. Why are journals not doing a better job screening for these? This generates an enormous burden for peer reviewers and pollutes the scientific literature. We need better tools and rules.

Basically: There is science AND there is academia. Academia has become “enterprise-centered” and metrics-oriented. It has advantages. But it’s fiercely competitive. Science requires perseverance and time. It’s about discoveries. Entrepreneurship and $$$ is only a byproduct.
