NIH is sponsoring a $1M Data Sharing Index ("S-Index") Challenge to develop a metric for assessing how effectively researchers share useful data. Can use to build more culture of open/team science.

Superb meeting hosted by @elsevierconnect.bsky.social on "Tomorrow Today in Research: Perspectives from Government, Industry, Academia"

Fascinating discussions with extremely thoughtful & accomplished speakers about how we can create better research culture for societal impact of work.

Incredible AI for Science meeting hosted by @deep-mind.bsky.social and @royalsociety.bsky.social:
