Science, research and innovation indicators and analysis @OECD. All views are personal. Also amateur cellist making up for a late start.

[OECD ➡️ Better Policies for Better Lives @OECD]

#NickCrafts & the importance of history in understanding economic performance - a @voxeu tribute to the most distinguished British economic historian of his generation by four of his friends & colleagues https://t.co/x5hARfszRt

@stianwestlake @amirrkermani At quick glance it looks like this is based on data on capitalised assets. Given accounting standards like ias38, this may then only hold for ultra high quality intangible spending that passes stringent cap tests.

Nick Crafts' death has robbed Economic History of a clear thinker, an outstanding researcher, an excellent writer, a committed teacher and a wonderful colleague and mentor. @EcHistSoc

How has #RandD investment evolved since COVID-19❔

The business sector resumed its role as main driver of R&D growth in 2021, while R&D in gov't and higher education came to a virtual standstill.

[OECD Tax @OECDtax]

Income-based tax incentives for R&D and innovation have become increasingly common over time – but how do these instruments vary across countries?

New OECD work sheds light on this question 🧵⤵️

Very encouraging interaction with and remarks from the King of Spain and minister @NadiaCalvino showing great appreciation for the work of the @OECD and the role played by staff members from Spain.

@SJSEdmonds @innovateuk Congratulations, Simon, for a distinguished career at the heart of industrial and innovation policy. Hope you keep on posting good stuff as ever.

A #stats reflection from #WomeninScienceDay on the #gender paradox of #RandD: X-countries, + R&D investment is not linked with + representation of #women among #researchers. Our future @oecd-@EU_Commission Res & Innov Careers Observatory #RICO will help untangle the reasons.

¿Puede una mentira modificar el discurso histórico?

Hoy en #FluzoDiscursos hemos visto cómo se ha intentado falsear la figura de Marie Curie recientemente para defender ideologías actuales.

En este HILO os doy más detalles de esta peligrosa manipulación histórica.

@stianwestlake @kieronflanagan @JoshMartin_econ I can confirm that there are no plans for a whosale revision to Busines RD figs for indiv OECD countries in the short to medium term other than changes to the UK figs once made official by ONS and reviewed by us. The rev Oecd aggregate will reflect the rev Uk figures.

[F Galindo-Rueda @GalInnovation]

@stianwestlake @kieronflanagan @JoshMartin_econ Several Qs that merit thoughtful discussion thru inf + formal channels, but let me underscore 1) how critical is that data users ask producers the hard questions & 2) invoke for international stats the A.Karenina principle on how all unhappy families are unhappy in their own way.
