"Why Integrators Belong Nowhere. Integration expertise exists in universities and policy work, so why can’t institutions recognize or resource it?" https://rubenbaetens.substack.com/p/two-worlds-one-skill-why-integrators Great reflections by Ruben Baetens on a world I worked in for many years. #SciPol #SciCom #Researchmanagement

Conflating "Responsible Metrics" with "Responsible Assessment" is a common strategic error in research management.

Responsible Metrics focus on data sources and quantification (the technical side). Responsible Assessment focuses on institutional processes, ethics, and people (the political/governance side).

Adopting better data tools (like OpenAlex) without reforming decision-making cultures is not a solution. It is often just a way to make the same mistakes using better data.

My latest analysis on why this distinction is critical for policy design: https://copdeb.com/2025/12/22/diferencia-metricas-responsable-evaluacion-responsable/

Hello world, time for a new #introduction!
I’m a microbiologist ➡️ #EU health #ResearchPolicy wonk in #Brussels.

Besides work, I enjoy #reading (mostly fiction), language(s), traveling, Star Trek, the occasional Nintendo game, and #LGBTQ activism.

In the fediverse I can’t wait to see your cat photos (dogs are ok too), improve my French, and dismantle the patriarchy.

And here it is: Canada's Policy on Sensitive Technology Research and Affiliations of Concern.

It shall be interesting to see how it will be broadly implemented.

Great news for science policy in 🇨🇦! Are you a scientist and wondering what this is all about?

Introducing a new Slack platform for early career researchers to learn and engage with SciPol and coherently interact between groups!

In my quantum mechanical description of science policy:
\[ |\mathrm{science} \rightarrow \mathrm{policy}\rangle + |\mathrm{policy} \rightarrow \mathrm{science}\rangle\]

⬆️
this issue is the latter, where these are policy decisions affecting the doing of science in 🇨🇦
