Since 2014, eLife has been guided by a diverse committee of active early-career researchers called the ECAG.
Elected through open calls, the group represent the needs of #ECRs and works with eLife leadership to influence and support our mission.

A workshop of the MLTC Cross- #NIHR Collaboration programme suggests three challenge themes in #multimorbidity research #methodology:
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/26335565251372222
Wired:
Transparency, standardisation, reproducibility of multimorbidity research made the list!
Tired:
Bullet points in figure 1 have more detail on building methodological capacity than the text. Investing in methodologists (of any kind) is not part mentioned as far as I can see.
This year's #ICYMARE is well underway! Thank you to all hosts, sponsors and participants who joined us this year in Bremerhaven. We are looking forward to spending the last two days of talks with you! π³ π«§

Comments from early career researchers (#ECRs) on how Trump policies affect them:
https://www.technologyreview.com/2025/09/08/1123166/trumps-policy-early-career-scientists/
"Several had waited months for news on an applicationβs status or updates on when funds they had already won would be disbursed."
"One respondent, whose work focuses on fighting child sexual abuse materials, recalled rewriting a grant abstract '3x to remove words banned' by Senator Ted Cruz."
"As an academic, we have to be very careful about how we voice our personal opinion because it will impact the entire university if there is retaliation.β
"Four respondents said they were worried about their own immigration status, while 16 expressed concerns about their ability to attract or retain talent, including international students."

While #OpenScience provides substantial opportunities for researchers in #LMICs, this paper highlights core global barriers and inequities
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/25152459251357565
It is also a good general introduction into OS!
It is important to recognise that current OS practices may not suit local contexts in #LMICs given how strongly they have been shaped (so far!) by researchers in #HICs. There is ample opportunity for #HICs to learn and improve practices from this dialogue!
Our second #keynote is Anna-Lucia Buer from The Coastal Union Germany talking about #EUCC-D and the protection and sustainable use of our coasts and oceans. π π

Having continuously harrowing conversations with #ECRs about the criteria used for hiring and promotion decisions, let's enter the new record-breaking cat by citations:
"In 1975, theoretical physicist Jack Hetherington added his Siamese to one of his single-author papers so the references to βweβ would make more sense." (107 citations)
Enter Larry:
With 12 fake papers citing each other and 132 scraped citations on GScholar, he is now the record holder

π¨οΈ Our fist keynote for #ICYMARE2025 is Prof. Dr. Martin Mundt talking about #AI and #machinelearning π€

It is always good see colleagues on our "whole school days", which bring a lot of perspectives across all our activities together.
I enjoyed @lmarryat.bsky.social presentation on what @ukri.org Future Leaders Fellowships are, and sharing details about her career and research trajectory up to this point.
