#EASEConference
My @morebrains.coop colleague @alicemeadows.bsky.social, @irfanullah.bsky.social, and I were all lucky enough to be in Oslo a couple of weeks ago for the @easeeditors.bsky.social #EASEconference
We talk about some of our personal highlights and insights in today's @scholarlykitchen.bsky.social post

Really important points by Sofie Wennström, speaking about @thinkchecksub.bsky.social at #easeconference.
In the discussion about author behaviour when it comes to predatory journals, poor university / employer support and training isn't talked about enough

Iryna Izarova of University of Ukraine is presenting on the challenges of conducting scientific publishing in an occupied country.
Appropriation of research and publications robs countries of their intellectual identity and violates academic freedom.

Madhura Amdekar of @crossref.bsky.social highlights the Xref research nexus (essentially a knowledge graph for research) and Crossmark, which is about retraction and correction metadata.
Crossmark needs greater adoption, given how serious a problem retracted articles has become. #easeconference

Funder and Grant identifiers are important because they enable the linking of articles to grants. This is a key trust signal. So funders, please, adopt grant DOIs and if you don't have a ROR, request one.

If you're interested in the work that @alicemeadows.bsky.social just mentioned about costs /benefits of national PID adoption, take a look at our repository page. We've done the calculation for the UK, Australia, Ireland, and Czechia. #easeconference

Malinformation is information based on fact that is intended to do harm. Phishing is an example of malinformation, as is mislabelling a photo with the wrong time, place, or subject to fuel a false narrative.
