Ich freue mich, Mitglied im wissenschaftlichen Beirat des Forum Wissen GÖ zu sein und so den Kontakt zur Uni Göttingen aufrecht zu erhalten. Ich freue mich auf meinen ersten Besuch und bin gespannt, wie es mit dem Forum Wissen weiter geht!

Reviewing for MDPI is a waste of time and a corruption of the scientific peer review process. Yesterday I sent back a second major revision, frustrated that the authors had ignored many of my comments. Today, paper is accepted. What a farce.

Bitte freimachen Die #WissZeitVG-Eckpunkte sollen "zurück in die Montagehalle", verkündete das Bildungsmisererepublik Deutschland - BRDigung am Sonntagabend. Eine bemerkenswerte Reaktion auf immer lauter werdende Proteste. Wie sollte es jetzt weitergehen? #IchbinHanna Im Blog: jmwiarda.de/2023/03/19/bit…

5 years ago the Postdoc Network had its inaugural event: “How to make the most of your postdoc”. Now the Network has 775 members and it just celebrated its 5th Postdoc Fair. Thanks to the researchers who started it all @i_Vinodh Rituparna Chakrabarti 🔬🧠☕ James A Daniel: goettingen-campus.de/postdoc

For The Guild research-led teaching is as important as the research itself: agreement on need to strengthen ERASMUS+ international dimension. Timely as @sveinstlen addresses 🇺🇸entrepreneurs+educators on need to enhance mobility+collaboration today! 👉bit.ly/3n30vgZ

Europe cannot achieve its strategic ambitions without world-class science. If 🇪🇺wants to be future-proof it must step up investment in European Research Council (ERC) as part of its ambitions for the next framework programme in R&I. See my opinion piece w/@KurtDeketelaere 👉bit.ly/3K3qgaa

Nice summary of recent trends in global trade. Fig 2 reveals again, how distinct patterns of tariffs for agricultural products are from other goods. And, unsurpring but nevertheless sad, no real progess on tariff reduction over the past 15 years (fig 3). wto.org/english/blogs_…

Great to see one of my first research projects to finally find a home 6 years after we collected data. Together with Fabian Brambach, Holger Kreft Bernhard Brümmer and others we look at the environmental performance of smallholder palm oil production and biodiversity conservation in Indonesia

Much ado about nothing? In 2023, a Nature paper diagnosed a reduction in disruptive research outcomes. This paper (doi.org/10.1016/j.resp…) argues that those findings were spurious because of truncation and exclusion bias.

🍽️🌱 Lasst uns über die Ernährung der Zukunft sprechen! 🐖🍏 Die ZERN Wissenschaftler*innen werden zu ihren Forschungen & zu Ernährungsthemen allgemein befragt – nebenbei werden live ihre "Kochkünste" getestet 😉. Es besteht die Möglichkeit, live im Chat Fragen zu stellen!
