Open Science and Mental Health It's world mental health day (10th October) and it feels like the perfect moment to discuss mental health in academia. We all know that academia can be challenging, so say the least. Between endless deadlines, tough competition, and the constant pressure of “publish or perish”, it’s no wonder so many researchers struggle with stress and burnout - rates of up to 3x the average population.

How can open science help improve researchers mental health?

I'm biased but I think this is a really good guide 😉

I'm also very open to feedback and collaborations on a version 2.

Or, even better, tailoring this to specific departments/institutions to incorporate specific institutional policies too! (*cough* any librarians interested?)

False flags of trust We recently published our first external article in which we proposed a range of trust signals that could replace outdated and poor proxies. You can read that article here. But why do we need to change the current proxies? False flags of trust The current markers of trust in a given scientific article are based on proxies that have no bearing on individual articles, on name recognition or on a deeply flawed peer review system.
