Vet ikke helt. 10 år i Oslo og så må man reagerer i blant :)

Impact Factor for academic journals is actually negotiable.

The landscape for academic publishing is rugged. How does #PeerReview really work? What is #OpenAccess, #DORA or #PlanS? How do they affect my research and my career? I’ve developed a workshop intended to support early-career researchers as they find their own answers and their own way. Have a look!

Very impressive work, David. And very important!

I’m deeply concerned about the state of academic publishing. Incentives clearly work and the wrong incentives have been put in place – by universities, research councils, politicians. We have to help early-career researchers figure out how to navigate this crazy landscape.

Sandra Borch om mangel på folk: — Dette er alvorlig I 2024 forventer regjeringen at universitetene tilpasser tilbudet sitt bedre samfunnets behov, sa Sandra Borch i sin tale til lederne i sektoren.

Gitt mangel på folk i Norge, lurer jeg på om vi kunne prøve å brainstorme oss frem til en god strategi for å tiltrekke oss ivrige studenter fra andre land🙃. Kanskje kunne vi til og med gjøre norsk arbeidsliv så lekker at de ønsker å bli værende her?!

Looks like a useful site … and I’ve never heard about it!

I think that’s where I’m really falling short. Haven’t really figured out that part of the system yet. Tips on what to read to better understand this?

I feel like there’s something I’m doing wrong here at Bluesky. Are you getting traction?

PhD candidates need a guidebook to understand the academic journal system. They need good ways to think through dilemmas and challenges about #OA, #DORA, #plan-s, CC-BY and much much more. I’m writing that book. It will be done by Easter. Should I do it publicly? How? LinkedIn? Substack others?

I’m starting to think it’s getting closer to the time when #Obama needs to do an intervention with #Biden. Run, Michelle, run!

As of today - November 21, 2023 - I have a #Norwegian passport for the first time in my life. I’ve lived in #Norway over half my life and I’ve waited patiently for the process to run its course. Now that I’ve reached this point, I have to say that it feels pretty good. Tusen Takk!
