Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: ORCID in the Wild featuring Fundacao para a Ciencia e a Tecnologia. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.

Join us for "ORCID in the Wild," a series that uncovers the diverse and impactful ways ORCID is adopted within the global scholarly community. Much like seeds carried by the wind, ORCID has taken root worldwide, fostering connections and cultivating collaborations. In this session, we are excited to highlight Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) and its innovative use of ORCID in research management. Since 2014, PTCRIS—Portugal’s national research information system—has championed the principle, "Register once, reuse always," streamlining research management for Portuguese researchers. While ORCID adoption isn’t mandatory, it has become highly encouraged due to its numerous benefits for researchers. By integrating ORCID with national systems like CIÊNCIAVITAE, PTCRIS has significantly reduced the administrative burden on researchers, saving them valuable time and effort. Through PTCRISync, researchers no longer need to manually update their profiles across various platforms. New projects or publications added to ORCID are automatically synced with CIÊNCIAVITAE, ensuring data accuracy without redundant effort. This integration has saved over 154 hours of administrative work, allowing researchers to dedicate more time to their research. Join us to explore how this seamless integration is reshaping the research landscape and how ORCID is becoming an indispensable tool in simplifying academic workflows.

Interdisciplinary oral history provides a rich methodology for research. ⁠It also hinges on sustained, mutual, and collaborative relationships.⁠

On our blog, Tala Khanmalek shares some things to consider when jumpstarting an interdisciplinary oral history project.⁠

Jumpstarting an Interdisciplinary Oral History Project - Ideas on Fire

How to get started with interdisciplinary oral history, including researching formats, finding training, and critically reflecting on power dynamics.

Ideas on Fire

Participating in a future scanning session for the world of #ScholarlyPublishing and #ScholarlyResearch with a 5yr horizon. Have done my traditional 'it's #GoogleWave people! Pitch.

Interesting that #Balkanisation of knowledge is being muttered about.

Meet our presenters for the HighWire's Best Practices Webinar.

@BorisBarbour is from @PubPeer, which is a nonprofit that aims to improve the quality of scientific research by providing a platform for the scholarly community to discuss about scientific research after publication. Boris will talk about ‘Post-publication peer review and the PubPeer website’.

Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: The Future of Peer Review: Diversification and Decentralization?. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.

"Scholarship is iterative; it builds on itself. Researchers conduct experiments based on the experiments that were conducted in the past, with the hope that the articles describing their experiments and conclusions will be cited by other researchers in the future. A research article can be seen as a conversation between scholars, and in the past, this conversation almost exclusively took place privately between colleagues, and then more officially as part of the anonymous peer review process. Today technology allows this conversation to take place in the open, in forums like preprint servers, or as part of reviewed preprint outputs and the conversation can be ongoing with post publication commenting. The reputation and the utility of peer review performed outside of the journal setting has improved and there are now multiple providers of what is sometimes called “community peer review” offering various services targeted at different parts of the scholarly communications ecosystem, from preprint to reviewed preprints to journal peer review to post-publication commenting. This Peer Review Week Webinar will examine different types of community and third-party peer review services, and examine how community peer review, including pre-submission and post acceptance review, fits into the future of peer review." Join us on 28 September 10 am – 11 am ET. Panelists include representatives from PREreview, eLife and PubPeer.
