Oddly satisfying knowing how they really *feel* about Europe.

Key barriers to returning to the Czech Republic for researchers: low salaries (69%), lack of transparency (53%), and limited international environment (48%). Solutions? Open hiring, starting packages, and research integrity guardrails + improved governance #KPS2024

Room packed for discussing the pathways for policy impact of social sciences and humanities at #KPS2024. @jakubhlavka.bsky.social et al.

A survey of Czech scientists abroad presented at the #CzExpats annual🎄conference. STEM fields account for 72%. #kps2024

10 ERC CoG projects awarded in the Czech Republic is quite an extraordinary achievement. I wonder if this is a beginning of a positive trend or a fortunate anomaly. Time will tell. Either way, I am super happy to see @electroslav.bsky.social on this year's list. #erc #sciencefunding #vedavyzkum
The image is a bar chart titled "ERC Consolidator Grants 2024 Grantees by Country of Host Institution and Domain". It shows the number of grants awarded to 25 different countries across three academic domains: Social Sciences and Humanities, Physical Sciences and Engineering, and Life Sciences. The chart provides a visual representation of the distribution of grants across these countries and domains. The highest numbers of grants will be located in Germany (67 projects), France (38), the UK (38) and the Netherlands (37). The Czech Republic has 10 grants.

The mapping procedure supports sociological & policy applications. E.g., we find that the Life–Non-life distinction is clearly indicative of gender differences in epistemological tastes across disciplines. The stakes in the knowledge space also relate to publication practices, teamwork, or funding.
A scatter plot showing the gender differences in disciplinary topic portfolios. The x-axis represents PC1 (Principal Component 1), and the y-axis represents PC2 (Principal Component 2). The scatter plot displays shapes representing the average topic portfolio for men and women in various academic disciplines. The shapes are color-coded based on the broad field classifications. The shapes are differentiated by gender, with circles representing female authors and squares representing male authors. The plot illustrates the distances and spatial orientations between the topic portfolios for men and women across different academic disciplines. In most disciplines, the average topic portfolio of men is positioned more closely to the Non-life pole at the top of the plot which is represented by engineering, mathematics, and physics.

By applying geometric analysis to algorithmic topics and designated disciplines derived from scientific papers, we obtain coordinates for an epistemological positioning system 🧭. This system locates research portfolios of individual knowledge producers in our multidimensional #MapOfScience.
A scatter plot displaying epistemological coordinates of researchers across academic disciplines, this time showing PC2 (x-axis) representing Life vs Non-life, and PC3 (y-axis) representing Materials vs Methods. The plot represents 58,466 researchers with 5+ publications, with each dot corresponding to an individual researcher. The data points are color-coded into six broad academic categories: Agricultural and veterinary sciences (pink), Engineering and Technology (orange), Humanities and Arts (red), Medical and Health Sciences (light blue), Natural Sciences (dark blue), and Social Sciences (green). The visualization forms a roughly triangular or arrow-shaped distribution. Medical and Clinical fields cluster toward the 'Life' and 'Methods' end (top left), Engineering and Physical sciences toward the 'Non-life' and 'Methods' end (top right), and Humanities toward the 'Materials' pole at the bottom of the plot. Specific disciplines are labeled with text boxes showing their average positions (e.g., 'ClinMed', 'MechEng', 'Arts', etc.).

🧵 Does science look like a sprinkle donut? 🍩👀 In our latest paper with @yannrenisio.bsky.social we map the epistemological tastes of scientists by identifying the main dichotomies in scientific knowledge — Culture–Nature, Life–Non-life, and Materials–Methods. 🔗 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
A scatter plot showing the epistemological coordinates of researchers across different academic disciplines. The plot uses two axes: PC1 (x-axis) representing Culture vs Nature, and PC2 (y-axis) representing Life vs Non-life. Each dot represents one of 58,466 researchers with 5+ publications. Points are color-coded into six broad categories: Agricultural and veterinary sciences (pink), Engineering and Technology (orange), Humanities and Arts (red), Medical and Health Sciences (light blue), Natural Sciences (dark blue), and Social Sciences (green). The visualization reveals distinct clusters and gradients between disciplines. Engineering and Natural Sciences cluster toward the 'Non-life' end, Medical and Agricultural sciences toward the 'Life' end, and Humanities and Social Sciences toward the 'Culture' side. Specific fields are labeled with text boxes showing their average positions (e.g., 'ChemEng', 'BioMed', 'Law', etc.). The data points form a rough circular or elliptical shape across the two-dimensional space, illustrating how academic disciplines relate to each other along these epistemological dimensions.
