Using neural embeddings of citation networks, researchers map scientific “disruption”: when future research stops following past directions and starts a new trajectory.

With only one academic among 13, Trump’s science council prioritizes tech industry insights over traditional science.
Can fundamental research still thrive?

New blog post on @lseimpactblog about our project. Why global databases are not enough, and why national scholarly infrastructures matter more than we think.
The solution is not to replace global systems, but to connect national ones into a network of interoperable, open infrastructures.

A real case of how administrative interpretation can block international research collaboration. A Ukrainian researcher was deemed ineligible because a municipal (public) university was not considered “state” 🤯 under a specific interpretation.
This raises important questions about consistency and transparency in international funding schemes.

Reforms of science funding in the UK aim to “do fewer things better”.
Clearer priorities could strengthen impact, but uncertain timelines and budget shifts may slow research momentum, especially for early-career scientists.

A large survey of 6,000+ researchers from the @maxplanckgesellschaft and @fraunhofergesellschaft 🇩🇪 shows that #AI has already become a routine part of research practice: 26% use AI daily, while only ~22% do not use it at all.
:doi: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.respol.2025.105381
But only about 20% of researchers were able to produce even a simple effective prompt, highlighting a major skills gap. Legal uncertainty, rather than ethical concerns, is the main barrier to broader AI adoption.

Last week I had the honour to join the TAIEX expert mission on evaluating Ukraine’s National Open Science Plan. Today, a smaller group of participants met to reflect on the key findings and define next steps — including a roadmap toward a coherent national open science policy.

Much has been said about the #PublishOrPerish culture and its damaging effects on academia. But in a recent paper I stepped briefly into the role of advocatus diaboli:
📄 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00210-025-04651-5
Yes, publish or perish has its risks. But in systems marked by academic inertia, lack of innovation, or deeply entrenched hierarchies, this very pressure can sometimes be the only mechanism capable of moving the system forward! 🆙

NIH's publishing cost RFI affects the entire research ecosystem. Our response advocates shifting from APC caps (which would only cover 6% of papers at $2,000) to investing in shared open infrastructure —a solution that serves funders, institutions, researchers & publishers more effectively.

A new article in #ResearchPolicy explores public sector innovation in #Ukraine, co-authored by scholars from Odesa Polytechnic. It shows that reforms are never just about #technology or management models – they depend on how international, national & local powers negotiate or clash:
📄 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0048733325001519
Like in science: #knowledge is a global treasury, but the keys are not always in the hands of researchers. Too often, those seeking control and profit prevail.

Talk by @statsepi for those interested in #PublicPolicy #HealthPolicy and the role of clinical trials:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kISmPxhUEcM&t=1sA key point is the importance of investigator-led trials, i.e. those that do not have immediate commercial payoffs, e.g., trials investigating head to head comparisons of 2 medicines on the market; de-escalation of treatment; or those investigating #healthservice practices.

How do countries assess research? With spreadsheets, committees, metrics - and increasingly, soul-searching. A new @RoRInstitute study compares 13 national systems and maps a quiet shift: from 'publish or perish' to 'be useful, be fair':

No silver bullets, just a very thoughtful typology.

Only 1.3% of respondents learned about @ORCID_Org through research funders, despite its strategic role being emphasized in France’s 🇫🇷 open science policy:

This contrasts with the international trend, where funders often act as key drivers of #ORCID adoption.

In #ResearchPolicy the authors explore how different forms of mobility – academic, institutional, geographic, and disciplinary – shape scientific recognition among biology professors in 🇨🇭:
:doi: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.respol.2025.105253
It’s remarkably simple: in Swiss science, the highest recognition often goes to foreigners.
Just like in Ukrainian universities – where the government spares no expense to recruit promising Brazilians!
Oh, wait… no, that’s football.

I stand over what I said 11 years ago about the value of the academy and the need for curiosity driven research - seems now more topical than ever.

Based on 30M+ Scopus papers from 19M+ authors (1996–2020), for the first time, we have global subnational estimates of scholarly migration - covering both internal & international flows:
:doi: https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2424521122
Key insight: Internal migration is more common, but international mobility is far more unequal. Even global magnets like the US have losing regions.

Our dialogue with Vasyl Cernat regarding Romania's evaluation reform continues in the pages of #Scientometrics. Dr. Cernat argues that MDPI’s practices - such as inflated impact factors, an abundance of special issues, low rejection rates, and rapid manuscript processing times - raise questions about the quality of 🇷🇴 publications:
