Great to see Australia's under-funding of PhD candidates making the news. Australia pays PhD students - the engine of University research - an absolute pittance. If we don't raise the stipend to a livable rate, we risk losing a generation of researchers.

Konzertierte Aktion: Mehr als 60 Hochschulen und Forschungsinstitute verlassen X-Twitter

In einer konzertierten Aktion verabschieden sich über 60 Hochschulen und Forschungsinstitute aus Deutschland und Österreich von ihrer Präsenz auf X, ehemals Twitter. Unklar bleibt jedoch, wohin die Reise geht.

#Academic #libraries are essential for advancing #OpenScience.

However, institutional #communication about open science support is often shaped by #policy objectives rather than the needs of academics.

In our article for @obibJournal we describe how libraries can foster open science by implementing adaptive, researcher-centred communication strategies.

So, we should get this straight: The Netherlands has systemic funding to promote #OpenScience. Up to €50k are awarded to "... to develop and implement plans next year to integrate the recognition and rewarding of open science into their HR policies for recruitment and promotion."

Such efforts should be supported on the same level everywhere!

Knowledge institutions take action on open science in recruitment and promotion policies | Open Science NL

23 Dutch knowledge institutions are taking steps to recognise and reward open science. On 13 December, the Open Science NL Steering Board approved a total of 1.2 million euros in grants. This funding enables the institutions to structurally embed open science into the recruitment and promotion of their staff.
