💥New: Four challenges for funding research with societal goals Andreas Kjær Stage Carter Bloch Duncan A. Thomas @mtnorn & Irene Ramos-Vielba #SocietalImpact #ResearchFunding wp.me/p4m9em-cAT

Our main takeaway from the PROSECON project, and from engaging funders from across Europe with our findings, seems to be that societally targeting of research funding is riddled with challenges at every level. We introduce four of the main ones here:

Wonderful to see our years of work on this topic, of how to best fund research to enhance pursuit (and achievement) of societal goals… out in a nice, digestible format! Yay!

Forskningsreserven har vokset sig mere end fire milliarder stor, og vi er nødt til at sikre kvalitet i processen for fordelingen af den. I dagens kronik på Altinget kommer vi med konkrete forslag til, hvordan vi kan gøre: altinget.dk/forskning/arti… #dkforsk #forskpol #dkpol

Så er et nyt Forskerforum landet. Læs det også online forskerforum.dk/magasinet/2023… Denne gang har vi set på det stigende antal udenlandske forskere på universiteterne, og de sprogproblemer, der følger med, som fører til ekstra arbejdspres på de danske kolleger. #dkpol #dkforsk #udpol

Spændende ny model for overhead, der baserer sig på et fast beløb per antal årsværk i et projekt frem for en procentsats af den samlede bevilling. Hvis der i højere grad også åbnes op for, at bevillinger kan bruges til fastansattes løn, kunne det påvirke personalesammensætningen

Finally out! The decrease in uncited articles and its effect on the concentration of citations, w/ Jens Peter Andersen & @lariviev asistdl.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/as… A short 🧵 with the main conclusions:

Flere kvindelige end mandlige forskere frygter for deres ansættelse og overvejer at forlade uni. Særligt blandt lektorer og professorer, viser ny DEA-analyse. #dkforsk #ligestilling dea.nu/publikationer/… Forskerforum har tidl. skrevet om problemet her forskerforum.dk/magasinet/2023…

For you non-experimentalists out there, our paper "Non-Experimental Data, Hypothesis Testing, and the Likelihood Principle: A Social Science Perspective" will be published in "Foundations and Trends in Econometrics", accepted version is available at osf.io/preprints/soca…

Bemærk universitetsdirektør Arnold Boons erkendelse: Politiske krav, der på overfladen virker relativt simple, har været overraskende ressourcekrævende at implementere på danske universiteter. Forestil jer så, hvor ressourcekrævende de mange ikke-simple krav har været!!! Læs mere
