Dozens of scientific journals – including almost 20 titles from OA publisher @Hindawi – have been delisted from @Clarivate’s Web of Science in one of the biggest purges of publications from academia’s go-to guide for trusted titles

@cOAlitionS_OA blogs on impact of choosing a CC BY-NC-ND #CreativeCommons licence with publisher modifications in the contract on author’s ability to control the rights to their published research. Exclusive licence to publish – now here’s a thing https://t.co/xkNFJVpPDo

Female supervisors ‘have more productive PhD students’

Large-scale study finds younger, female supervisors are more likely to produce PhD graduates who publish successfully https://t.co/VXi4JPhjGq

Student evaluations show gender bias even in most equal country: male students at university in Iceland tended to rate their female teachers lower than male counterparts in both teaching and course organisation

@cOAlitionS_OA Under Plan S, adopting funders commit to providing funding for APC fees researchers should not be paying APCs out of their salaries #StaffWeekUC3M #OpenScience

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

@cOAlitionS_OA OA champion Johan Rooryck: If you are not publishing open access (i.e. in paywalled venues), no one will read your work as they will have to make extra effort to do so #StaffWeekUC3M #OpenScience

Great to see Prof Subhash Pokhrel talk about EQUIPT research on smoker behaviour arising from @YERUN_EU partnership collaborations. Great example of open science good practice! @ProfWLeahy is right: YERUN is truly “ a beautiful thing”

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

@YERUN_EU evaluates applications for research mobility funding holistically. Fair and suitable indicators still in development but evidence of open science good practice will feature.

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

Great tip from Dr Ronan McCarthy: @YERUN_EU #ecr researchers applying for research mobility award call should look around the discipline for collaborators to bring in additional expertise and strengthen their application. Holds true for anyone applying for any funding I think.

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

@BrunelGradSch: Inma - Evident that the @YERUN_EU research mobility funding awards can really help #ECR researchers establish their careers by opening up collaborative opportunities, building networks, exposure to different perspectives.

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

Inma Andres from @Bruneluni @BrunelGradSch outlines the @YERUN_EU researcher mobility awards open to doctoral and post-doctoral researchers up to eight years post graduation.

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

@Bruneluni our own Yulia Matskevich talks about @BrunelRSDO support for EU funding for collaborative research - lots of opportunities for @YERUN_EU researchers in Horizon Europe - EUR 100 billion funding available.

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

Thanks to Silke Reinold from University of Bremen for sharing experience about Research Office role in @YERUN_EU and benefits for Bremen’s research profile.

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

Brilliant comprehensive introduction to @YERUN_EU collaborative work across key areas including #openscience and research collaboration and the role of the working groups from @SGR_YERUN at @bruneluni

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

Fascinating insights from @liana_chua on need to consider wider perspectives and viewpoints beyond the disciplinary orientation, factoring in the socio-economic-political realities contributing to the research problem for impactful outcomes.

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

Woohoo! A small but significant development which promises major impact for institutional users like @OABrunel. Will help us better promote and showcase content collections internally and globally.

[Figshare @figshare]

We’re proud to announce that customers of ‘Figshare for Institutions’ and ‘Figshare for Publishers’ will now be able to host content on a custom domain

#paywallbrunel @RLUK_David Plan S and REF both want #OA for monographs, rise in university presses - exciting times ahead

[Research Librarian @res_librarian]

#paywallbrunel @torstenreimer Policy makers @UKRI_News are interested in understanding #OA issues to factor in to policy development - academics views needed
