📣 Sorbonne Université quitte le classement international des universités du Times Higher Education !
🎓 Plus qu'une démarche symbolique, ce retrait s’inscrit dans une stratégie plus vaste visant à promouvoir la #scienceouverte et à repenser la manière dont la recherche est évaluée.

Sorbonne Université décide de quitter le classement international des universités du Times Higher Education (THE World University Rankings)
Sorbonne Université annonce son retrait du classement des universités proposé par le Times Higher Education à partir de 2026. Cette décision s'inscrit dans une démarche plus large de promotion de la science ouverte et de réforme de l'évaluation de la recherche, conformément aux engagements pris par l'université dans le cadre de l'Accord COARA et de la Déclaration de Barcelone. Sorbonne Université privilégie ainsi les bases de données ouvertes et transparentes pour évaluer ses performances académiques.

Citing openness and validity issues, Sorbonne University in France decides to no longer supply data to the THE-ranking and thus get delisted. This is 4th major European university to take this step, after Utrecht, Zürich and Lorraine. #universityrankings www.sorbonne-universite.fr/en/news/sorb...

Thanks for the report on what was a troubling moment. For me the lesson was that the Metascience ‘discourse coalition’ absolutely has to question/critique the shifting power dynamics as more private organisations enter the open science space. And associated questions of trust. 1/2

Science, researchers and research communities increasingly need to be resilient to threats and actual incursions relating to budget, academic freedom, safety in the public arena, science databases and infrastructures and more. We created this framework to inspire communities in their resilience.

It pains me to say this, but if you are not a US citizen, you should not attend scientific conferences in the US, visit US institutions, or otherwise travel to our country.
Right now it's not worth the risk.
Hopefully that will change. If it doesn't, science in the US is sunk anyway.

1. It's Fustilarian Friday and today's drop is the "Restoring Gold Standard Science" executive order.
My read is that this is designed to (1) protect far-fringe figures such as the antvaxxers now heading our health agencies, and (2) kneecap efforts to use scientific evidence in regulatory policy.

🚨Hiding under 6 sections of science sounding rhetoric is an edict to appoint officers at each agency that will be responsible for detecting research that isn't "Gold Standard Science" as defined by the White House🚨
Stay tuned for rapid response action!

The Trump administration just dropped an executive order, "Restoring Gold Standard Science" and there's lots to unpack. This EO reveals more about how the Administration will approach scientific integrity and science in regulatory contexts. Some initial thoughts. 🧵
