✨ Research assessment needs a rethink — and it finally feels like change might be possible. At protocols.io (@protocolsio.bsky.social) and in my past life as a journal editor, I’ve had countless conversations about how we evaluate researchers. It’s a topic that keeps coming up — and for good reason.

Listening to #WhatTheRef podcast on the train en route to Birmingham for The Festival of Hidden Ref tomorrow and Weds, perfect listening material, thanks @hiddenref.bsky.social, I'm giving a lightning talk on Thurs - very much looking forward to this event :)
