Happy birthday #DORA! That is, happy birthday to the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA), which turns 10 years old today. (Not to be confused with Dora the Explorer, who is 22, despite her childlike appearance.)

I'm excited to be joining a webinar, "DORA at 10: Looking back and looking forward," featuring @ginnybarbour and @StephenCurry
