This is like the climate crisis: we've accumulated loads of evidence that the ecosystem we created is unsustainable and has detrimental effects, but we keep not acting on it...

We were surprised by a recent #Frontiers blog. They make derogatory statements, accuse us of data manipulation & mischaracterize our comms with them. 😔 Critiques of our work are welcome. Falsehoods about us and our work are not. Here we set the record straight. 1/7 #SciPub #AcademicSky #PeerReview

Very interesting and informative study with "null results". And also the first time I see a neuroscience paper where the first and only author is a consortium, rather than an individual. Best way to reinforce team work. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Very amusing to see how Frontiers phrase their request to review manuscripts as an "Opportunity to review a new Original Research Article". Wow, such an honor, I feel humbled :-)!

"Scientists are increasingly overwhelmed by the volume of articles being published [...] in 2022 the article total was 47% higher than in 2016" 🤯 arxiv.org/abs/2309.15884 I agree with Uta Frith, we need to "restrict the number of papers anyone can publish [to one] per year" doi.org/10.1016/j.ti...

New paper with @ianhussey.bsky.social @taymalsalti.bsky.social @rubenarslan.bsky.social. Most measures are only used once or twice, w/o agreement on gold standards - a serious barrier to cumulative science. that leads to lots of papers without meaningful progress. www.nature.com/articles/s44...
