Over the next two years, @cwts.nl and Dialogic will develop a robust and context-specific monitoring and evaluation framework, along with a prototype dashboard to showcase how such an open science monitor could be made visible. This work will be carried out under a β¬330,000 contract.

We will work on this together with colleagues at Dialogic.
We were very happy to learn that our partnership with Dialogic innovatie & interactie has been selected for the Open Science Monitoring and Evaluation project!

ZonMw and the Dutch Research Council have published their action plan for reforming research assessment, in line with CoARA principles.
The plan includes actions around reviewing and refining the evidence-based CV and exploring #openscience practices in grant evaluations.

This must have been a difficult decision for those involved, but brave it is.
Scholars that have been instrumental in shaping the field of film and media studies, and having longstanding relations with the press, resign from being series editors after the buy-out.

De plotse verkoop van Amsterdam University Press aan een commerciΓ«le uitgeverij deed flink stof opwaaien. Reden om eens te onderzoeken of het ook anders kan, zegt UvA-hoogleraar Sible Andringa, die zelf al overstapte naar een wetenschapsvriendelijkere vorm van uitgeven. www.folia.nl/nl/wetenscha...

Mapping the interaction between science and misinformation in COVID-19 tweets. Publication from @luzuzek.bsky.social, Juan Pablo Bascur, @annabertani.bsky.social, @ricgallotti.bsky.social. This project is supported by European Media and Information Fund. Abstract: During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientific understanding related to the topic evolved rapidly. Along with scientific information being discussed widely, a large circulation of false information, labelled an infodemic by the WHO, emerged. Here, we study the interaction between misinformation and science on Twitter (now X) during the COVID-19 pandemic. We built a comprehensive database of 407M COVID-19 related tweets and classified the reliability of URLs in the tweets based on Media Bias/Fact Check. In addition, we use Altmetric data to see whether a tweet refers to a scientific publication. We find that many users find that many users share both scientific and unreliable content; out of the 1.2M users who share science, also share unreliable content. Publications that are more frequently shared by users who also share unreliable content are more likely to be preprints, slightly more often retracted, have fewer citations, and are published in lower-impact journals on average. Our findings suggest that misinformation is not related to a ``deficit'' of science. In addition, our findings raise some critical questions about certain open science practices and their potential for misuse. Given the fundamental opposition between science and misinformation, our findings highlight the necessity for proactive scientific engagement on social media platforms to counter false narratives during global crises.
New preprint! π¨
We study the interaction between misinformation and science on Twitter during COVID-19 based on ~407M tweets. Both science and misinformation featured prominently during the pandemic, but the interaction between the two has not been studied on this scale before.
