🌻#OpenAccess publishing and scientific communication infrastructure in Ukraine have distinct characteristics shaped by socioeconomic conditions and by the structure of the national science and research system. War-related destruction has created numerous challenges for the functioning of Ukraine’s scholarly communication system. Here’s one example of international support to keep publishing alive

It probably was more secure to travel in the eighties to the Eastern part of Germany

A second German citizen (travelling as a tourist) has been arrested at the US border and is being detained for deportation.
I definitely won't be travelling to the US any time soon, *especially* for science events. It's too easy to end up causing misunderstandings at the border (Are you there to work? Does the agent think you may want to stay?), and the agents have apparently been instructed to be even more suspicious and "crack down" on cases at will. #science #academicChatter #scienceAtRisk #usTravel
