Does publishing serve science or is science serving publishing?

Damian Pattinson and I (@elife.bsky.social) argue scientific publishing has evolved into a system that, rather than facilitate scholarly communication, distorts and dictates it.

onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

#OpenScience
Screenshot of article summary of: Toward Science-Led Publishing by Damian Pattinson, George Currie published as an opinion piece, in Learned Publishing Summary The current dynamic of scholarly publishing prioritises the wants of the publishing industry over the needs of the research community. This article explores this theme through the lens of ‘publisher-led science’ as a description of our current status quo, and through ‘science-led publishing’ as an improved future state. We argue that financial motivations central to most publishing distort how research is presented, how it is assessed and even what research is undertaken, leading to a system that hinders, rather than facilitates, scientific progress. We propose three elements of a science-led publishing approach that would accelerate research communication, incentivise collaboration between authors, editors and reviewers, and create a more transparent and equitable research landscape. We believe that research funding and research assessment are two of the primary levers for wider change in research and research culture and consider the future purpose of scholarly publishing in a world where these proposals have been widely adopted.

Check out our latest study "Comparative performance of novel viral landscape phylogeography approaches", which is now available as a preprint on bioRxiv: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1.... @ulbruxelles.bsky.social @ulbrecherche.bsky.social - 1/8
Comparative performance of novel viral landscape phylogeography approaches
The fast rate of evolution in RNA viruses implies that their evolutionary and ecological processes occur on the same time scale. Genome sequences of these pathogens can therefore contain information a...

First day at sea, under the sun of the Marennes-Oléron bay with @maudejacquot.bsky.social and @benmorga.bsky.social to collect spatial data on the OsHV-1 dynamic across the region 🦠

Looking forward to diving into the data soon !

Pathogen genomes can provide insights into underlying disease transmission patterns but new methods are needed to analyze large genome datasets. Our work using identical pathogen sequences to characterize fine scale SARS-CoV-2 transmission was just published in @nature.com tinyurl.com/bdzk9xjj 🥳

The analysis of pairs of identical SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences enables characterization of transmission patterns between geographies and age groups.

This is devastating. We’ve stopped training the next generation of scientists.

PhD student mentoring is the most rewarding part of being a professor. You get to be part of building the future. And now we aren’t able to admit a new class next year.

Heartbreaking is exactly the right word.

This is my institution. These are the people I work with making these decisions. The situation is heartbreaking. Public medical schools have no other choice; there is no other source of funding, and everyone in academia is at extreme risk right now.

Mercredi dernier, j’ai relevé le défi de Ma Thèse en 180 secondes 🎤

3 minutes pour parler de modélisation épidémiologique, de phylogéographie et d’OsHV-1… Un beau challenge en début de thèse 🦠

Prochaine étape: la finale régionale !

✊ STAND UP FOR SCIENCE ✊

L'Ifremer soutient le mouvement Stand up for Science France, lancé en solidarité avec la communauté scientifique mondiale et tout particulièrement celle des États-Unis qui subit des attaques inédites, notamment envers les sciences de l'environnement.

Since it's my week as curator 💜, let's dive into infectious disease modelling! 🦠📈

What do ID modellers do?
Use math, data & computer simulations to understand how diseases spread & how we can control them

It's a mix of
📊 Epidemiology
💻 Coding (eg #Rstats/ #Python)
🏥 Public Health
