Will there be a possibility to migrate from a Mastodon account to Bonfire, or OSN, as it is possible between Mastodon instances ?

It might be needed to lower the migration barrier and foster Bonfire OSN uptake.

Of course, it comes along with the possibility to migrate between Bonfire, or OSN, instances as smoothly as possible.

Any plans of thoughts on that ?

In this blog post, I share my recent experiences with #Bluesky as a platform for scientific exchange. I see both advantages and risks: #Bluesky offers new opportunities, but I also miss key aspects of #Mastodon that have grown important to me ( #privacy, #sustainability, #community, #opensource). For now, I use both. In the post, I reflect on what each platform gets right (and wrong) for science.

I was awarded a grant by @BerlinUAlliance - this grant will allow me to visit Stefanie Haustein, associate professor at the School of Information Studies at the University of Ottawa and co-director of the ScholCommLab.
During my stay, I will investigate metadata flows in the context of research data. In particular, I will examine the transfer of metadata from local to global contexts.

Are you interested in monitoring the output of research data for your institution? This preprint might be for you:

Gee, B. M. (2025). The hunt for research data: Development of an open-source workflow for tracking institutionally-affiliated research data publications. arXiv. https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2507.01228

In > 50 pages, the preprint outlines a workflow for identifying datasets published by authors affiliated with a specific institution. The workflow uses open data sources and multiple search strategies to compensate for missing affiliation information. It also discusses data monitoring and data cleaning issues.

The Journal of Trial and Error is hosting its second Trial & Error Award ceremony this year and nominations are still open!

The aim is to celebrate researchers who have explored scientific failure in any scientific article published between April 1, 2024 and March 31, 2025. The scope is considerably wide, so if you think something might fit, send along your nomination!

The winning article will be selected via live lottery from the pool of nominees at the Trial and Error Symposium on October 7, to which all nominees are welcome to join (and others, of course).

The Journal of Trial and Error feels strongly that our community is strengthened through the recognition of failed research as invaluable to the scientific process. This award was designed to explicitly celebrate this research and to disrupt the culture of stigma surrounding failure in our community.

Help us to redefine how we value failure in the pursuit of knowledge, and in doing so shed some light on the contributions of your colleagues.

You can follow this link to the nomination form: https://trialanderror.org/awards-2025-form

🌞 L'été approche… et avec lui la dernière newsletter du GTSO Données de Couperin de l'année 2024/2025 sur les données de la recherche !

Avant de fermer vos onglets et de partir profiter du soleil, jetez un œil à cette 65e édition, riche en actualités et ressources utiles :

🧰 La nouvelle version de DMP OPIDoR, qui permet désormais de décrire les logiciels de recherche dans le plan de gestion de données et de faciliter l’accès pour l’ANR
💻 Une fiche de décryptage : "Utiliser les services de l’EOSC pour gérer ses données de recherche"
📽️ Le replay du webinaire sur la valorisation économique des données de recherche et la science ouverte – un duo vraiment incompatible ? @Atelier de la donnée de Bourgogne-Franche-Comté
🧪 Un retour d'expérience sur l’usage du cahier de laboratoire électronique à l’Université de Lorraine
🌊 Et un article sur l'importance de l'ouverture des données pour les littoraux @The Conversation France

La recherche publique est muselée par le financement sur projets, l'exigence de cofinancements privés, à produire de la "PI" transférable.

Pour expérimenter quoique ce soit, il faut se conformer aux appels qui nous demandent de nourrir la "transition digitale" ou la "révolution de l'IA".

Que certains adhèrent à cette idéologie n'a rien de surprenant. Les jeter en pâture dans des enquêtes-choc n'y changera rien.

Nous avons besoin d'ingénieurs (dev, UX/UI, data) dans les labos de SHS, d' #OpenScience, de transfert vers l'#ESS. Bref, d'une politique de recherche qui surmonte l'impensé numérique.

@UlrikeHahn
We as researchers are just super naive. If you ask me, those things go back to Big #Tabacco vs #Science
Ironically, they demanded what we in #OpenScience demand nowadays, but with a very different aim... :(

I touch upon that in a recent #preprint on open data: https://doi.org/10.31219/osf.io/hk786_v1

"Long before today’s #Open #Science movements, the Executive Committee of the Sound Science Coalition (1994; cited in Ong & Glantz, 2001) published guidelines that align with what Open Science practices advocate today. For example:
(1) The study design should inform about all hypotheses,
(2) after the study was conducted, the data should be analyzed as described in the study design, and
(3) if the data does not support the hypotheses, no further analyses are necessary.
Shockingly, in #1994 these recommendations were motivated by the fact that parts of the #tobacco industry aimed to #discredit research and researchers on a large scale, with the goal that it could not be legally established that smoking increases the risk of lung #cancer (Drope, 2001; Muggli et al., 2001; Ong & Glantz, 2001). Along this line, one may accuse researchers as having been naive to the vested interests aligning with scientific rigour by non-researchers."
