Oh! I finally got to see a comic in Scientometrics! 😄

:doi: https://doi.org/10.1007/s11192-026-05780-1

The authors took the famous #xkcd joke about the "hierarchy of sciences" and decided to test whether sciences can really be arranged so neatly in a single line. It turns out there is no clear ladder from "soft" to "hard" sciences, and some disciplines that seem far apart are actually surprisingly similar.

Can #GenAI help scrutinise the scientific literature, not just create it?

:doi: https://doi.org/10.1007/s10805-026-09761-0

In our new paper, we tested #ChatGPT and #DeepSeek as triage tools for post-publication peer review. The result: useful potential, but human verification remains essential.

"How many times must one do something to make it a tradition? If two data points are enough, join Dr Suze Kundu for the now TRADITIONAL closing keynote at PIDFest 2026!

Following on from her closing session at the last PIDFest in Prague, where she romped through a whirlwind review of several packed days of discussion before somehow convincing nearly 300 people to scream the word “Bridgerton!” in unison, Suze returns with another joyful retrospective of the festival’s biggest moments, boldest ideas, accidental themes, infrastructure in-jokes, and perhaps a few slightly unhinged observations from the front row.

Expect highlights, hindsight, hilarity, and heartwarming reminders of why communities like this matter so much.

From metadata to memes, governance to global collaboration, this closing keynote will celebrate the people, conversations, and connections that keep knowledge connected.

Come for the recap. Stay because statistically speaking, audience participation is now also a tradition. And you can't go against data."

Are university journals really "local"?

Our new preprint shows that national and institutional embeddedness are not the same. University journals may be strongly rooted in national research systems while publishing very few authors from their own universities.
