I am done with reviewing postdoc applications. DONE. DOOOOONNNNNNEEEE.
LLMs definitely are involved: the writing quality is much higher than in previous years. I hope that the applicants didn't use LLMs to develop their studies, but the time frame provided by the funding agency (looking at you, SSHRC!) does not allow careful thought about that.
Most disturbing though: in previous years, 1/5 or 1/6 applications were in French. This year: 0/36.
-
Status so far: 3 yesterday, 6 today. Of these:
- one likely written by LLM
- one with two reference letters written by the same person
- one with the same reference letter written by two peopleThat’s all I can handle for the day. 15 out of 36 applications done, 7 days until deadline (funding agency screwed up) #reviewing #academia #academicchatter #sshrc

Guess who does not want to read 30 postdoctoral fellowship applications this weekend. #academicchatter #academia #sshrc #caturday

-- Open Letter to Protect Tri-Council EDI Data --"The recent motion by the House of Commons Standing Committee on Science and Research is incredibly damaging, unscientific in its approach, unethical, and puts equity deserving researchers and graduate students at risk."
"the CSCR just passed a motion to force the Tri-Councils to release [...] funded and non-funded scholarship and project applications, including confidential data about funding applicant's EDI questionnaires and information about their institutions, peer reviewer comments and more."

The #NationalPost is criticizing #Humanities and #SocialScience research, saying it is a waste of money, and pointing to specific grad students and naming them in the article.
This is what #Fascism looks like. Trying to silence people who are often working on and helping others to develop critical thinking skills.
Not to mention how obvious it is that they want people to pile on and attack these grad students who they mentioned.
This is disgusting.

It is strange how making happy job-related announcements feels weird over here (as opposed to that other place). but here we go:
🌟 I am thrilled to announce that we got substantial funding from #SSHRC to study how #automation, #digitalisation, & #AI are changing #migration management in #Canada.
With a fabulous team led by Danièle Bélanger and including @AdeleGarnier, @Prof_Mireille_Paquet, Karine Côté-Boucher, & several others!

In Aussicht: Mehr Forschungskooperationen & Ideenaustausch in den Geistes- und #Sozialwissenschaften mit Kanada 🇨🇦: #DFG-Präsidentin Prof. Katja Becker und der Präsident des Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (#SSHRC) Dr. Ted Hewitt haben gestern ein Memorandum of Understanding #MuU geschlossen.
"Nur so können wir uns zusammen für wichtige gesellschaftliche Themen stark machen", sagte Katja Becker.
Gesprächsthemen waren auch Nachhaltigkeit, Diversität, KI u. Dual-Use-Technologien.

@academicchatter I urge researchers based in #Canada to reply to this survey from the tri-council funding agencies.
My two cents: most researchers want their #Research to be #OpenAccess and publicly available but there is a severe shortage of funds to cover APC charges by journals. Many institutions do not provide funding for this and there is very little external funding to support it - even from the funding councils - including #SSHRC.

#Graduate #scholarship/#stipend #funding has always been too low, and the fact that..
"The #SSHRC #Doctoral #Fellowship increased to $20 000 two decades ago and has remained frozen ever since. The (#NSERC) #Canadian Graduate Scholarship (#CGS) program was introduced in 2003 and the dollar amount has stayed the same, meaning that #inflation has cut the value of these #scholarships by a third."
...means that it's currently abysmal in #Canada.

"Canada risks losing its future scientists to other countries because the dollar amounts of annual grants have remained stagnant for nearly 20 years.
A Canada Graduate Scholarship from one of the three federal research funding agencies is $17,500 per year for a master's student or $21,000 per year for a doctoral student. Those amounts have not changed since 2003."I got 16k in the early 1980s from SSHRC topped up to 18 by the univ.

I’m also really interested in the intersection of students’ and teachers’ identity(ies) and the way they make connections to the past.
I am currently the Director of https://thinking-historically.ca/, a Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (#SSHRC) Partnership Grant, which is the largest grant in all of SSHRC’s programs. It provides funding for (in our case) 7 years of research and collaboration. We have 28 co-investigators, 12 collaborators, and 30+ partners across 🇨🇦.
