In academia, we sometimes trade permanence for possibility. And each time, impostor syndrome tags along, telling us the same story. It used to sound convincing. Not anymore. Read the post by @lealoburoglu.bsky.social #AcademicSky #SciPub #PeerReview #PhDSky #AcademicChatter #OpenScience 🧪

I think a lot about what Carl Sagan said in one of his final interviews.

Bluetorial-A dream and a bit of a nightmare Serving as Editor-in-Chief at Science was fascinating. I greatly enjoyed working with talented and committed editorial, news, graphics, and production staff. But the inside look into scientific publishing and AAAS was also deeply disillusioning.

I wrote some thoughts about why peer review matters It shapes scientific standards, maintains field coherence & trains new researchers Yes, it needs improvement—but it's the glue that holds scientific progress together briscoelab.org/2024/12/11/i...
