A good crowd this evening @esbcongress.bsky.social opening ceremony. So nice to see many friendly faces

Definitely worth pointing out in response, and even reporting if "no ai" is part of the review policy (not sure if this is paper or grant...)

Yes!! I've signed up to help with open day on Saturday so I can be 100% sure that Monday next week will be very confusing!!

While I thought it was much longer, my data says longest was 9 months (the revised version then took another 7 months, hence my recollection of a long wait); shortest 3 weeks. Median (N=36) is 3 months

I agree indeed that the CV and capacity to deliver are not the same thing and hence CV (narrative or not) is not useful. The fact that in TFS, the section for narrative CV is called "applicant and team capability to deliver", is laughable

Marlène Mengoni @mengomarlene.bsky.social · 03/04/2025
Interesting view. I've seen the opportunity in a narrative CV (writing and reviewing) to tailor information, providing specific evidence of the capacity to deliver a project (highlighting aspects of experience which is not obvious to state in a traditional CV) alongside being a broad researcher.

Latest paper is the first from my #EPSRC @ukri.org NIA presenting a methodology to evaluate facet joint #biomechanics with evidence that aged ovine #spine model for method development was not the best idea but literature led us to believe it was doi.org/10.1016/j.jb...

I got lucky: I travelled to Swansea for a viva planned tomorrow. I asked the University to book accommodation for me, asking for 1 night on Wednesday 4th... which obviously does not exist, and the room was booked for yesterday. 1 room left at the hotel, and they only asked for the price difference!

A scary thread, read to the end! While some of the examples should have been stopped at peer review and never been published, it depicts symptoms of a crazy overcrowded system where publication numbers is still the norm to evaluate researchers. #dora needs to actually be applied, not only signed!

I find this point about TFS enormously frustrating. Many people asked and asked about both accessibility of TFS and it's ability to enhance EDI data collection and monitoring. And we were basically told not to worry our silly little heads about that, it was all under control...
