‘REF needs dedicated section for research methods’ - Research Professional News Hidden REF Festival: Conference hears plea to fill gap in Research Excellence Framework

Here’s a write-up that includes my lightning talk and reflections on why technicians must be recognised in the REF:
🔗 www.researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-r...
Hope to work with others to get methods formally recognised as reportable research outputs in a category of their own.

This week at the Festival of Hidden REF (@hiddenref.bsky.social), I was surrounded by brilliant, passionate people who can drive change. The discussions around non-traditional outputs (NTOs — or DOTs!) and how they’re assessed (or not) were eye-opening.

✨ Research assessment needs a rethink — and it finally feels like change might be possible.
At protocols.io (@protocolsio.bsky.social) and in my past life as a journal editor, I’ve had countless conversations about how we evaluate researchers. It’s a topic that keeps coming up — and for good reason.

Listening to #WhatTheRef podcast on the train en route to Birmingham for The Festival of Hidden Ref tomorrow and Weds, perfect listening material, thanks @hiddenref.bsky.social,
I'm giving a lightning talk on Thurs - very much looking forward to this event :)

Our latest interview is with 2025 @bscb-official.bsky.social Hooke Medal winner Ian Ganley of the University of Dundee @mrcppu.bsky.social‬‬. We spoke with Ian about his career journey, his approach to mentorship and his pet snowflake moray, Eel Armstrong. journals.biologists.com/jcs/article/...

Image shows a screenshot of the data availability statement from this Microbiology Society article in which it notes that the protocols, data and code have all been made publicly available in open access repositories with the relevant links provided

Love this "All protocols, sequence data and analysis codes .. available in OA repositories" Should be 'norm' for research with all linked in the DAS as from Brooke Benz, Eglantina Lopez Echartea & @barneygeddes.bsky.social in @microbiologysociety.org 👏 🌟

I am delighted to be involved with "Love Methods Week" again this year. Now that protocols.io are part of the Springer Nature fold, there are four events that will connected with Springer Nature. Find out about them here: communities.springernature.com/posts/spring... #LoveMethods25

So proud of the husband (& all who've worked with him in his lab @LabGanley) as he's been awarded the @Official_BSCB 2025 Hooke Medal: bscb.org/hooke-medal-wi… Congratulations!! 🌟🏅🌟

Also had great time working with Crick researchers & seeing your amazing set up there, thanks for having us! Also hoping we see lots of amazing reproducible protocols shared soon!

This year I've been working on encouraging open methods and protocols at the Crick and we've partnered with protocols.io to do this.

Here @lteytelman.bsky.social and I discuss our approaches to helping researchers in making their work open and reproducible.

Using dynamic headspace collections for bacterial volatile sampling This protocol describes a step-by-step guide for sampling Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) from the headspace of bacterial cultures, using dynamic headspace collections.

A new protocol from the Chemical Ecology group @rothamsted.bsky.social has now been published on @protocolsio.bsky.social: 'Using dynamic headspace collections for bacterial volatile sampling'.
