Very appropriate.

You’re welcome.

It’s a good job I’m as old as I am, Hugh, and misspent my youth in similar ways. 😆

💥New: #AI is reshaping research, from proposals to peer review, amplifying both the need for & potential of reform

Elizabeth Gadd ( @lizziegadd.bsky.social ) & (Nick Jennings VC & President) @lborouniversity.bsky.social, argue for AI-augmented assessment that supports, not replaces, human judgement

Thank you, #Metascience2025 & everyone who took the time to connect! We're delighted with sharing resources & meaningful connections at the DORA booth! @coarassessment.bsky.social @metaror.bsky.social @ginnybarbour.bsky.social @rnls.bsky.social @scurry.bsky.social @lizziegadd.bsky.social

I can commend the rest of my panellists’ contributions for sure. It’s refreshing to expose yourself to content you wouldn’t normally hear though. Thanks for the excellent summary!

This sounds like a brilliant session! I should have ducked out of listening to my own boring talk to come and listen to this. 😂

It is now possible for participants to sign up for the "Unconference" focused on taking action on responsible research! Scientists, science managers, journal editors, policy makers & more - take a look at the 10 interesting projects that will be developed on site during the event! 🧪
🌟Please share!🌟

Such an unexpected treat to see you! And a brilliant session. 😊

It would, Terry, it would. Some visible wincing amongst the erudite audience. 😂

Next time, show them this slide from a RG uni… (See first sentence).

what's not worked as we'd hoped. Predetermined medium term action plans Research culture cafes Pulse surveys Image of a target with arrows missing the bullseye and one with no arrows, saying 'This isn't failure, This is'.

Brilliant to hear @catdavies.bsky.social talking both about what works and what DOESN'T work when it comes to research culture at Leeds. Soooo helpful. (And I love that image about failure).

Not that immediately comes to mind but I’m reposting in case others have suggestions!
