My lab team is "House MD" level, too.
All of them are TA'ing, working on 3+ research projects *simultaneously,* publishing peer-reviewed research, knocking out multiple conference presentations, and taking classes.
Reason... I'm incredibly selective and skeptical of prospies who are under 27.

Critically, authors are motivated by impressing funders. So if funders demand authors to take ownership over publishing, to recommunalize the publication of research, authors will jump to do so.
For-profit publishers stand to lose in that scenario. The solution cannot be theirs to define.

Change the incentive systems!
![Part from "Reformation of science publishing: the Stockholm Declaration":
3. Incentive systems to merit quality, not quantity
Reward scientific achievement based primarily on quality—not quantity measures of today’s ‘reputation economy’ metric system [8].
Discourage ‘salami-slicing’ of results to obtain ‘least publishable units’; reduce the abundance of review articles (meta-analyses) and commentaries that over-burden reviewers and can too easily be generated using AI.
Rankings of academic achievement with metrics such as citation counts, ‘journal impact factor’ (JIF) and ‘publication number’ must be used responsibly because they often do not correlate with research quality [9] (see also CoARA—Reforming Research Assessment). 7
Select appropriate achievement criteria that are compatible with respective disciplines and publishing traditions.
Because peer review adds to researcher workload, the science community should reflect on how to incentivize it properly (e.g. tracking scientists' number of review assignments and their quality).
Applications for funding or positions/promotions should disregard metrics and limit the number of publications to be evaluated (e.g. 10) depending on career age, academic field, etc.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:e3pl5vxcg7zhcaxu4bnrlvhv/bafkreibbk54lbcvgq7obdw34hl33bkwoefbyt2pcknt2d37vv5lu2alnge@jpeg)

I am slow to react to this recent Stockholm Declaration on scientific publishing. A lot of it sounds good, but I don't see how we get from here to there. I worry nothing substantial will happen until the cost disease kills the host.
