  1. Small Modular Reactors: Game changer or more of the same?🧐 #PolicyBrief
    "SMRs r presented, not only by #nuclear #industry, but also by #media & #government, as established, proven, commercial products.. Te perception tt #SMRs r being built in large numbers is untrue & te claims made for them in terms of, for eg., cost, #safety & waste are at best #unproven & at worst false.. image of them being smaller than existing #reactors is incorrect. IAEA’s size range is arbitrary"🤦‍♂️

  3. 🧠 How Hackathons Build Better #ClimateResearch Communities – A New #PolicyBrief

    Our final #nextGEMS Policy Brief is here—and it brings a fresh perspective: “Building User Communities around Next-Generation Earth System Models.”

    While our first brief focused on bridging science and society, this one looks inward: How do we design research projects that foster #collaboration, creativity, and real-world #impact 

    Drawing on experiences from the series of nextGEMS #hackathons, the brief shows how these spaces:

    - Enable peer learning across disciplines and expertise levels
    - Spark new scientific collaborations and networks
    - Offer #CoCreation formats that build trust and shared ownership of climate model development

    🏛️ Aimed at the EU’s research and innovation community—especially those who design, fund, or manage large projects—this brief offers practical recommendations:

    - Embed collaborative events into project design
    - Create intentional structures that support long-term #community-building
    - Focus on the societal relevance of scientific outputs from day one

    These insights go beyond nextGEMS: they speak to the future of climate research itself.

  5. 📢 News from #nextGEMS: Our latest #PolicyBrief is out—“Reaching the Last Mile with Km-Scale #EarthSystemModels.”

    It highlights how km-scale models deliver sharper #climate insights, especially on extreme weather and regional projections. But better data ≠ better #policy—yet.

    🔑 Key proposals:
    Support transdisciplinary #collaboration
    Remove barriers to data access
    Recognise & retain early-career talent
    Build public-private partnerships for future-ready infrastructure

    We call on policy-makers and funders to help ensure this cutting-edge science reaches its societal potential.

    👀 A second brief is coming soon—stay tuned!
