Promoting #openscience practices like preprints alone is not enough in our world of fast science. The research community must also do everthing to uphold the quality of that research shared with the public. My piece in @Nature on six ways to take responsibility

Engaging with colleagues from @ECDC_EU and @Eurosurveillanc on #diversity,#inclusion and #equity in research and scholarly publishing. A huge thank you to Ines Steffens @drkuehnert Kuehnert @CDCgov and @heidari_s for your inspiring exchanges.

@AcademicChatter @naubertbonn And disproportionately too with more women than men leaving academia. No surprised there, I guess.

They aren't quitting science, they're quitting academia.

@paimadhu Sounds trite but still is very true I believe: be the change you want to see. If we only wait for systems to change that have been in place for decades if not centuries then there will little to no hope for humanity. Never underestimate the power of individual change.

@Mario_Malicki I believe the pressure is real and these numbers likely an underestimate for reasons of sensitivity

Why are #EDI issues important to #researchquality and #researchintegrity? Listen to our last podcast episode of Season 1 of Research Integrity Matters to find out Read the Cape Town Statement and its recommendations for #EDI at lnkd.in/eT_YaYk3 @WCRIFoundation

#ARI2023 This is the book I mentioned during my keynote. Highly recommended!

Deadline 17 Oct 2023 for abstract submissions

@WCRIFoundation Looking forward to this! It would be helpful though if abstract guidelines could be posted directly under the abstracts page instead of only at submission stage since usually the abstract is already prepared and ready for submitting by that point

👁️ Do not miss the opportunity to submit an abstract at #WCRI2024. Submission is still Open, but time is running out! ⏳ Submit Now: wcri2024.org/abstracts-new/ and earn the opportunity to communicate your work with your peers! 💥

Early morning Dutch train rides #northtosouth

@mattragland Wow. What discipline! Great post. What apps have you found helpful in organizing such as the chart you shared?

I have 3 kids, a full-time job, workout 4x per week, coach baseball, volunteer at church, and spend the majority of my weekend time with my family. Here's what a normal week looks like 👀 The Simple Time Block Breakdown ⏰ 🔴 Work = 40-45 hours, little early/late 🟢 Social = Church, kids baseball, football 🟢 Family = 90% of wknd time and all evenings 🔵 Workouts = 3-4x CrossFit, BJJ, plus playing with boys A few things to point out and how I work around the inevitable changes of entrepreneurial work, raising 3 young boys, and staying connected to my wife and friends. I stick to core hours at work between 10a-4p every day except Thursday (BJJ). My best work days are the ones where I go straight from a morning workout to the office. I stay dialed in and get a lot done, which carries to the rest of the week. I avoid work on the weekends (hence the "event" note) but often write my newsletter late Friday or early Saturday when kids are sleeping. I'd rather work on the edges and keep my weekends free. My wife and I set our workout times and stick to them. If I want to go to Jiu-Jitsu, then I need to go at 6am. If I'm tired, that's fine, but I don't get to go in the evening instead. I have my time and it's up to me to go. Speaking of my wife - she's incredible. She homeschools the kids and runs the house day-to-day. There's tension, sure. We are always tired and often feel like we're pushing a boulder up a hill. We would like more 1-on-1 and 1-on-none time. We're very focused on providing that balance for each other, but it's always a bit less than we planned for. But it's also a season of life with young kids that we are embracing for their joy and energy. We try to bring friends to our activities, e.g. the farmer's market, workouts, hikes, the zoo, kids games, or host watch parties during football season. I call this "happy stacking" because I'm doing multiple things I enjoy at the same time. Like sitting in an old van at a brewery. It's hard not to want to do MORE. I honestly want to work more than I do, there's so much energy and momentum in the business. But I also want to spend more time with my kids, and hell I want to train more than I do (CrossFit and BJJ). That's the biggest challenge - Fitting in everything I want to do - Realizing I can't do everything I want to do - Not comparing to other people's social posts - Remembering I'm on my own path and timing One more thing: I have been recognizing and rewiring old beliefs about what the perceived limitations of my own path are, i.e. "guess I'll make less money then." It's striking a balance between gratitude for what I have (and there is so much to be grateful for) and openness to the opportunities that come my way. Thanks for reading all the way down. I'd love to hear from other people (especially parents) on how they make a busy, ambitious, but still pretty balanced life happen. Rooting for you all!

Very proud that @NWONieuws we are taking this next step in #openscience by making data about our funded projects openly available by means of the NWOpen-API! nwo.nl/en/news/nwo-ma…

@EikoFried @annaveer @DuddaLeonie

Hey tweeps! Are you aware of a evidence that reforms in scientific integrity, responsible scholarship, or #OpenScience have had measurable impact on the quality of science (broadly defined)? @annaveer & I are looking information for a workshop we're putting together. Thanks 🖤!
