  1. 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.

  5. 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 people

    That’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

    -- 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."

  24. Kudos to #Canada's three major research-funding agencies for their draft all-green, zero-embargo, rights-retention #OpenAccess policy.
    science.gc.ca/site/science/en/

    The agencies are the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (#CIHR), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (#NSERC) and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (#SSHRC) — sometimes known collectively as the #TriAgency.

  32. 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.
