Two projects I’ve been meaning to mention.
I was involved in the early stages of creating DORA’s new implementation guide. One small contribution that I made was ensuring that there was a small section that talked about including graduate students and postdocs when considering research assessment reform.
This guide is timely and badly needed. Many American research universities are going to have to change what they think a successful research career looks like.
And an update to one of my passion projects, my collection of academic hoaxes.
This update contains two new pet-themed hoaxes: a dog impersonating a scientist and a cat impersonating a scientist. The first of these occurred after the first version of this document, and I missed it. This is indicative of how difficult it is to keep on top of these events.
Also, a slight update about how Google’s search result is now displaying material from hoax papers as though they were real.
I am slightly amazed that what I thought would be a project that would close or at least slow down is still updated so regularly.
