I don't have that much time for hiking this year, but I devoted the last three days to the mountains I like the most in Czechia.

🏺If you are into #archaeology of power in Middle Ages and you miss there a bit of theory and network analyses (with published datasets and R code!) check the amazing paper of one of my PhD students (Vít Kozák) in Praehistoriche Zeitschrift. www.degruyterbrill.com/document/doi...

Women, non-native English speakers & those form low-income countries are disadvantaged in science but by how much? We found that women with non-English first languages from low-income countries publish up to 70% fewer in English than their counterparts. 1/5 doi.org/10.1371/jour... #languagebarriers
Scientific productivity gap based on English-language peer-reviewed papers. Shown are the maximum % differences in the number of peer-reviewed papers published by female native English speakers from a high-income country (-45%), female non-native English speakers from a high-income country (-60%), and female non-native English speakers from a lower-middle income country (-70%), compared to male native English speakers from a high-income country (red flag).

The 8.2 ka cold event was the most prominent climatic cold snap in northern Europe during the Holocene. It was a consequence of the rapid Early Holocene warming and came in the wake of ice sheet melting. A thread about our new paper and a link to the OA publication at the end of the thread 😊 1/8

Sad to hear that the #Fulbright programme (among others) has been suspended by the Trump administration. I am a Fulbright alumnus myself (2017/2018) and it changed my life. This world needs international exchange and study-abroad programmes for scholars! www.washingtonpost.com/education/20...
