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.

Open science is efficient: reusable code, data, results, and educational materials saves unnecessary work. Wen facing cutbacks, it's a bad idea to cut back on practices that increase efficiency! universonline.nl/nieuws/2025/...
