Join us as a postdoctoral researcher! "Invisible Knowledge Work in Open Science Practices", funded by OSNL #STS #metascience Come help us map and understand the invisible labour that enables, allows, supports and shapes #openscience, and lets it grow. Mostly #qual work, with small #quant pockets.

Oooh, we're entering the era of academic journals dropping their "qualitative checklists". Well done, Implementation Science. Maybe I'll send you a paper now. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

the method is already named--"adaptive surveying"--and research from a year and a half ago finds that chatbot adaptive surveys substantially underperform human in-depth interviews in richness (aka, the salient metrics we use to evaluate interview data quality) arxiv.org/abs/2309.10187

Our neighbours, who are by all standards, the best neighbours one can wish for, are moving out. Maybe, in a year's time, we will no longer be the youngest people in our street...

Obviously a request to fill out a doodle prompted this post. 50 minutes later, the next one has already arrived.

Doodles just don't work. I get multiple of them a day, and filling one out, often cancels out the one I filled out before. If at some point a date and time is picked, for half of the people it longer it's available, starting the whole circus up again.

I've been going #flightfree since 2019. It has been difficult to maintain at times and I am realistic enough to know I will not be able to maintain this indefinitely. In the meantime, trains are great! Usually...

A trillionaire isn’t a success story. it’s a policy failure.

Nice thing to see on my way home.

I'm boycotting the #FIFAscist World Cup in a week. That is easy for me to say, since I couldn't care less about football. I hope many others join me nonetheless

"We have purposefully chosen a term which lays aside questions of epistemological inclusion or exclusion of contributions & instead embraces all ways of doing, knowing & understanding how research is practiced, produced & governed" Great to see this in the manifesto for this new r-o-r journal⬇️

We are hiring!

We're excited to launch J·ROR, the Journal of Research on Research. A new open-access home for research on how research is funded, organised, conducted, communicated, and evaluated. Our first editorial: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... #ResearchOnResearch #MetaScience #OpenScience #STS

Wonderful news! Journal of Research on Research is launched. "if you are a researcher who researches any aspect of research, then this is the journal and community for you." Worth reading the whole editorial for a transparent and thoughtful account of this amazing community-driven effort.

J·ROR, the Journal of Research on Research, is live! @gemmaderrick.bsky.social @tonyrh.bsky.social

We had an invigorating day of international, yet local, #STS conversations yesterday, at the Euregional STS Day: the annual gathering of STS scholars from @rwth.bsky.social @maastrichtu.bsky.social and @universitedeliege.bsky.social

"Through strategic performance, I am experimenting with sartorial innovation as a norm-setting form of climate adaptation." Or: I wore shorts to work because it was hot.

There are so many genres of (academic) writing. Sadly, taking a "scientific writing" course will most likely only teach you how do one of them.

My daughter's favourite author surprised her by showing up at our door to personally hand over his newest book, which she pre-ordered months ago. I've never seen her smile and bounce around the house that much, ever!

GIVEAWAY! Dead Weight is coming out next week and to celebrate I'm giving away two copies that have been personally bitten by Uggi and will be personally signed by me and shipped to the winners wherever they live! To enter just like and share this post and I'll select the winners on May 26th!

We had to impose a deadline for this, given the interest so far. Please reach out to us before the end of May, if you want to collaborate on an MSCA PF application :-)

Watching a volleyball coach teach volleyball in three languages at once it's quite entertaining...

What does a university have that Google cannot offer its workers? Art History departments, Classics departments, History departments, Music Theory, etc. The humanities are what distinguishes universities in an AI economy. Universities defunding the humanities are digging their own graves.

Under the banner "The winding road to better science", we are joining forces with our metaresearch centre and are offering ourselves as hosts for potential MSCA postdoctoral fellows. If you are interested in developing a project on or across the boundaries of #metascience and #STS, reach out! 1/

Museum exhibition, supported by my own university, unironically displays #AI as a religious icon, an oracle. It weirded out my kids and me...

Bread. Rye, black pepper and cumin.

Saarland. I never post images of my kids. This seems like a safe exception...

My old university NTNU in Trondheim is finally! recruiting a fully tenured associate professor in modern environmental history. This is a great opportunity for the right person. #envhist

I'm super thrilled that my Comment on the vital role that #libraries have played in the history of #preprint communication in #physics is now out with @natrevphys.nature.com 🥳🥳🥳 www.nature.com/articles/s42... (message me if you can't access the article! It's not a preprint 😉)

How did the whole #preprint thing start? 🤔 In my #OA article, I look closely at how the #library at @cern.bsky.social formalized preprint #communication in #physics in the 1960s; while my Comment in @natrevphys.nature.com gives a general overview: doi.org/10.1038/s422... doi.org/10.1007/s110...

Erm, they're called palaeontologists, actually.

America might just need to release the Epstein Files to distract from this war of incompetence.

Remember this when someone tells you ‘science isn’t political’.

I'm increasingly seeing students on campus with a leather briefcase. Laptops fit inside comfortably. This is a trend I can get behind.

Excited and happy to report that we (@ccmmody.bsky.social, Ewout Meijer, Marielle Prevoo, Yannis Stravrakakis, Penelope Bollini, and I) will be able to start the new project "Invisible knowledge work and the transformation and scaling of open science practices". This is a unique project --> 1/2
