Yes! 👏👏

Why are indexers unable to see that peer review can be more than a thumbs up or a thumbs down? | DORA Journals and peer review are unlikely to change for the better if the companies that operate scientific indexes and citation databases continue to stifle innovation.

Does your institute have a dog lab? Know anyone working with dogs for behavioural / cognition research?

Because ManyDogs 2 has launched for data collection!

So cute!

A white and gray dog touches a yellow dot hanging on the wall with his nose. Text says ManyDogs 2 - Join the Team!

🚨 Calling all dog behavior & cognition researchers - ManyDogs Project is launching ManyDogs 2!

🔍🐕‍🦺We're studying overimitation: Do dogs copy irrelevant actions just b/c their favorite human does them?

Email manydogsproject2@gmail.com to collaborate globally and contribute to reproducible science!

This latest announcement from Nature is a positive step towards greater transparency in science.

We have been sharing reviews publicly since 2021 for all papers we review in a push for constructive, open assessment to replace journal-level metrics.

Just had a flick through the ‘Top 100 Scholars’ in the ScholarGPS citation rankings. Only one is female and she died in 2017. So before you promote your institution’s ‘Top Scholars’ stop and think whether being male and highly cited is really your definition of ‘top’. scholargps.com/highly-ranke...

Trends in self-citation rates in high-impact neurology, neuroscience, and psychiatry journals Self-citation rates differed by geographic region, seniority, gender, and field, which may ultimately affect the perceived influence of authors in these subgroups in neuroscience literature.

Open Science: What is publish, review, curate? Publish, Review, Curate (PRC) solves some of the challenges in research communication today. We take a look at the range of organisations working to make PRC a bigger part of scholarly publishing.

A lot of what we take for granted in publishing today stems from its history in physical print. So how would we design the process if we started today?

Very cool! Congratulations 😊

Clever 😂

I'm very excited to share our paper, out now in Animal Cognition, where we show that dogs are able to detect meaningful (to them) phrases in a stream of meaningless speech, even if no exaggerated intonation is used. Check it out here: link.springer.com/article/10.1...
