Are #smartphones and #socialmedia harming a generation?
This is a hotly debated and often polarizing debate. So we surveyed over 120 experts on the topic to see where there was genuine consensus (or not), like experts have previous done for climate change.

I really enjoyed reading this world view in Nature about the importance of exploratory research in the social sciences by @balazsaczel.bsky.social and am wondering what people think. Do you generally agree with his point? 🧪@natureportfolio.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Let the data talk: embrace exploratory research
Open-ended research is essential to building solid hypotheses in the social sciences — without it, even the best-planned analyses can fail.

I'm so glad that we are rebuilding #AcademicTwitter and #ScienceTwitter!
They were extremely important communities, and their decline was a genuine loss.
I am grateful and hopeful that Bluesky is giving us the chance to rebuild these remarkable human networks.

Horrifying statistics obtained by UCU show 61% of undergraduate tutorials at Oxford colleges done by junior academics on fixed-term contracts or in hourly-paid roles. Colleges pay many below minimum wage in the UK, after accounting for preparation and marking.
