Disappointed about this weeks news on OA & long-form outputs in #REF2029. 2 yr embargo period felt a strong offer that would have enabled a mixed model publishing environment that supported funded & unfunded researchers, delivering affordability & viability for research sector.

The @WHO has declared Mpox a 'Public Health Emergency of International Concern'. "This announcement should be a wake-up call," said Josie Golding, our Head of Epidemics and Epidemiology. "The world should not wait for diseases to escalate and cross borders before acting." [1/3]

ICYMI …. 🎉 Participation reports - now with affiliation coverage data! Big thank you to Nees Jan at CWTS Leiden 🇳🇱 for their efforts improving the report!

Great to see this work published. Insights already used to inform the recent funding call from the same team. Deliberate choice to use no-fee instead of diamond to refer to this publishing model due to participant feedback.

Are you a life science student or researcher? We need your help!! We are running focus groups about what technology you use to find research and what tools you'd like to see available! The session will take place over Zoom Interested? Sign up here: https://t.co/Z2Y3spNvJC

Are you a @wellcometrust funded researcher, and looking to publish on Wellcome Open Research? Did you know all submissions now have to include a plain language summary? Sign up and find out more!

Funder level collaborations are hard but can hugely increase impact (@EuropePMC_news is my go to example). A range of interesting models summarised in this FT article working at different scales and domains. https://t.co/mREmXHEyrQ

Disappointed by the string of negative REF OA consultation responses. I felt the proposal was fairly pragmatic & an achievable compromise between researcher/publisher. Perhaps a open research outputs rather than OA policy would be preferable way to greater diversity of outputs.

Our latest paper is out in @WellcomeOpenRes! Rather than on #research, it is on best practices in a research #team & building a #PositiveResearchCulture in your #lab. Nurturing that culture is among the most impactful things you can do, here is how: 1/11 https://t.co/RxM8wE1tZa

When we want to involve and engage people with our research, this is the information we need to inform our work. It's easy to not realise how many folk don't read or aren't good with numbers.
