"This is striking as we also find that retracted papers are pervasive across mediums, receiving more attention after publication than nonretracted papers even on curated platforms..." A study in PNASNews using the Retraction Watch Database. pnas.org/doi/full/10.10…

"Overall, this analysis suggests that Twitter readily hosts critical discussion of problematic papers well before they get retracted. These discussions credit voices that are actively helping to improve science-related discussions in digital media." pnas.org/doi/full/10.10…

🚨 Is novel research worth doing?🚨 There are serious concerns about slowdown in innovation. Are institutions to blame? In science, does peer review discourage novel work? Paper with Hao Peng mrblasco and @klakhani finds the opposite! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… 1/n

Excited to see this research with Hao Peng and Misha Teplitskiy | Science of Science getting covered. Representation matters in science news!

Scientists with East Asian, African names less likely to be mentioned in news stories referencing their work: says study led by Hao Peng at Northwestern (study authors note methods of identifying name origins likely led to some classification errors). science.org/content/articl…

Why would name mentions matter? While, it does for us, at least in EB1A visa application.

“Scientists with East Asian and African names are less likely to be mentioned or quoted in stories that reference their work.” Findings from a study of US based media coverage by Hao Peng Misha Teplitskiy | Science of Science David Jurgens is now on BlueSky only summarised by Katie Langin science.org/content/articl…

👀ICYMI: Hao Peng Misha Teplitskiy | Science of Science & David Jurgens is now on BlueSky only show researchers with non-Anglo names are more likely to not be directly named in news stories and have their names replaced with those of their institutions. #Journalism #Media #AcademicTwitter wp.me/p4m9em-cXz

How are the merits of innovative ideas communicated in science? New research in PNASNews analyzes the relationship between promotional language and the probability of funding, innovativeness, and citation impact. w/ Hao Peng Sophie Huilian Qiu & Henrik B Fosse pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Innovation really involves two processes: ideation & communication. Our paper finds that promotional words can help to show the merits of good ideas in funding. Scientists need to pay more attention to the communication process to drive innovation success: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Studies like this mostly compare fraction of faculties to US population. I bet the finding might be different if using the fraction of authors as baseline -- a lay person working in service industry is unlikely to become PI in the first place. People's choice matters.

New research from Sophie Huilian Qiu Hao Peng Brian Uzzi and colleagues suggests there is an association between promotional language and biomedical grant funding success.
