Move beyond ‘publish or perish’ by measuring behaviours that benefit academia Perspective in #Nature 🧪 suggesting a new "G+ index" — G representing generosity, giving and other ‘good things’ in academia Wouldn't this be great 🤔 By Prof. Kelly-Ann Allen www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Excerpt from article by Prof Kelly-Ann Allen:

The index could reflect good science practices — for
instance, by recognizing replication studies. And public
reach could be measured in terms of open-science prac-
tices — data-sharing, pre-registering protocols and commu-
nicating through podcasts, blogs and media contributions.
In some fields, publishing in practice-based journals
could be rewarded to ensure that research reaches profes-
sional communities. Similarly, editorial and peer-review
work for these journals — and work for scientific societies,
regardless of prestige — could be valued.
Ultimately, the full list of metrics should be decided by
the academic community, reflecting a collective vision for
a healthier workplace. Funding bodies and institutions
could then incorporate the index into their evaluation
criteria, providing both the infrastructure and incentives
for adoption. Many of the metrics are already tracked in
existing data repositories, but improved systems to collect
and amalgamate the data are needed.
The index should remain dynamic and evolving, allowing
new ways to evaluate and measure other desirable work-
place attributes to emerge over time — work–life balance,
for instance, or a positive teaching culture.

Had the best time at #ASH24 presenting with Simone Riva our work at the @imm.ox.ac.uk with Prof. Adam Mead and Prof. Jim Hughes on the construction of a novel multi-omic resource atlas for human granulopoiesis and the identification of molecular machinery underlying IMiD-induced neutropenia.

Warming up for #ASH24 at the JMML summit. @ellouka.bsky.social presenting exciting multiomic single-cell and functional studies highlighting the role of HSC-cDC interactions in altering the leukaemia microenvironment.
