With a rapid increase in the number of researchers seeking grants, having a captivating problem statement for your research becomes crucial. It must capture the attention of a busy reader, especially potential funders. The problem statement is your opportunity to explain why a funder should care about the problem you wish to address through your study. To learn how to craft an impactful problem statement, visit our latest blog here: https://ow.ly/nnJu50SM6p0
If there was a Research COOP, would you join? As a thought experiment, imagine the following for creating and publishing scientific research: ? All title to clinical research remain with the researchers themselves and does not pass to the publishers. ? Academic researchers organize themselves into an organization of shared values, ethics, standards, and operate the organization for the benefit of its members. ? All profits from the publication of scientific research return to researchers to fund further research. ? This organization of shared standards owns and operates the peer review scientific journals. Would you Join? The cost is less than your monthly coffee habit. Here's a link to the Wait List (no charge). ?? Robin https://lnkd.in/gzFxFwfY
?? Call for Abstracts ?? The #ESRA25 call for abstracts is officially open, and I’m excited to invite you to contribute to a session I’m organizing on “Advances in Life History Data Collection” at the 11th European Survey Research Association (ESRA) conference in Utrecht, The Netherlands ????, July 14-18, 2025. In this session, we’ll explore the latest innovations and challenges in life history data collection, especially in self-administered survey modes. Life history data are essential for understanding complex phenomena such as career and educational trajectories, but collecting high-quality retrospective data remains a significant challenge. ?? We’re particularly interested in: - Techniques to improve respondent recall - Methods like Life History Calendars (LHCs) - Addressing memory bias and recall error - Standardizing life history data collection across studies This session is an exciting opportunity to share insights on advancing data collection methods that balance accuracy and participant burden. ?? Interested? Submit your abstract by December 20, 2024! Let’s push the boundaries of what’s possible in survey research! ?? Learn more about the session and submit your abstract: https://lnkd.in/drDTWcGi #SurveyResearch #LifeHistoryData #DataCollection #ESRA2025 #AcademicResearch #SelfAdministeredSurveys #SocialScienceResearch

Last autumn we set up our Interdisciplinary Assessment College to help assess applications we get for funding through our programmes. In this latest blog post, Lauren Wray shares why and how we set the College up, and how we're planning to evolve this. Lauren also reflects on how this process was influenced by the systems used by UK Research and Innovation and informed by findings in X-Net Interdisciplinary Research Network's 2024 report ‘Sweeping Away Barriers to Interdisciplinary Research'.

Sharing for anyone concerned about misinformation / disinformation. Scientists - and communicators - needed. I am especially bullish on opportunities for #DataViz #DataVisualization #DataActivism to help move the needle.
Share widely: In the face of the new administration, scientists are acting to develop new skills and protect their work and practice. As President of The Science Haven, I have mobilized a cross-disciplinary collaborative group of professionals to share knowledge and resources on how to best communicate science, as well as execute science communication campaigns. Almost 2,000 people across, natural, social, and physical sciences as well as the liberal arts have reached out to link arms and work together. I am giving weekly science communication workshops within the group for the next 70 days. If you are feeling called to participate in our working group, please follow and send me a message. If you would like to donate to The Science Haven, visit this link: https://lnkd.in/eycySzwQ
