Navigating the social media minefield

Scientists and researchers seeking to announce promising findings, exchange ideas or contribute to policy discussions outside of academic circles may find social media an expedient tool.But increasingly, scientists and other professionals are discovering that online platforms can be a double-edged sword: while sharing their work and expertise is crucial for visibility and meeting funder expectations, it also exposes them to baseless criticism and even accusations of spreading false information.

At the #sciencebusiness event, a lot of talk about European competitiveness and geopolitics (obviously).

What I keep wondering is to what extent do we really need to compete? How much do we need to bow to global rules, and how many of those should we try to shape? Above all, does the “only money matters” have to be the main driver? Sure, we cannot and should not ignore the global environment, but couldn’t we reshape our view of it?
