I'm extremely pleased to announce that the NASA/CERN Open Science Summit we held last year has been included by reference in an official diplomatic statement of intent between the United States government and CERN : https://www.state.gov/joint-statement-of-intent-between-the-united-states-of-america-and-the-european-organization-for-nuclear-research-concerning-future-planning-for-large-research-infrastructure-facilities-advanced-scie/

I said it before and I'll say it again: scientific journals have hardly any relevance any more, except for academic careers.

AI is just speeding up this evolution. We urgently need to rethink scientific communication!

#MIT just released a major 56 pp report on #OpenAccess & the future of academic #publishing. I esp like the fact that the last 12 pp are devoted to 𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 "to spur research that will…inform future policies & their implementation."

This is an incredible opportunity to provide feedback to the NIH on a policy years in the making. I'm incredibly proud of the work that the interagency conducted to advance substantive commitments to the public trust through enforceable and durable scientific integrity policies based on the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Scientific Integrity Framework. True leadership!

New study: In German #universities, the factor most affecting the growth of #GreenOA is "disciplinary profile". #Infrastructure & services "turned out to be non-significant."
https://arxiv.org/abs/2308.11965

"[Our analysis] hints that the original function of institutional repositories, offering a channel for secondary publishing is vanishing, while a new function of aggregation of metadata & full texts is becoming of increasing importance."

“When people want to listen to music they go to Spotify. When people want to study sound recordings as they were originally created, they go to libraries like the Internet Archive. Both are needed. There shouldn’t be conflict here.” - @brewsterkahle
