Feels to me that people in charge in US think scientific successes in country over last 100 years are a product of innate American genius rather than sustained and reliable funding of basic science Because of this mistaken assumption, American science is f$cked for at least the next couple decades

Yup.

“De huidige scheve verdeling is onwenselijk, oneerlijk & op termijn onhoudbaar. Een oneerlijk belastingstelsel holt uiteindelijk ook het vertrouwen in de democratie uit”. Onbegrijpelijk hoe D66 en CDA dit hebben weggegeven aan de VVD 👇

In addition to the 2 postdoc jobs posted yesterday, we’re recruiting 2 PhD students (environmental microbiology/ molecular ecology) to join us from April. The projects will map microbial populations across niches in bioelectrochemical systems relevant to biomethanation & link them to performance.

Come work with us on #darkoxygen as part of the NASA Postdoctoral Fellowship Program. It is an amazing opportunity to get up to 3 years of funding. Deadlines are March 1. and November 1. Happy to discuss your ideas! Details here: zintellect.com/Opportunity/... @mblscience.bsky.social #astrobiology

Het verdienmodel van uitgevers als Elsevier en Wiley is niet iets wat ons als wetenschappers overkomt, maar waar we zelf deel van uitmaken. De oplossing ligt dus ook bij ons. Vanaf dit jaar publiceren we bij @rug-gmw.bsky.social niet meer in pure gold OA bladen. We kunnen ons geld beter besteden.

Open access is de melkkoe van de uitgevers. De belastingbetaler betaalt flink voor de winsten van de uitgevers. Van elke euro die ze betalen, heeft de uitgever ongeveer 30 cent pure winst. @ftm.nl schrijft een helder stuk over deze ongelijkheid. www.ftm.nl/artikelen/we...
