Fascinating study in @eLife: @BeckmanFnd analyzed how blinding the Beckman Young Investigator review process (at LOI stage) affected success rates based on applicant’s institutional prestige & saw major effects — but saw no effect on applicant’s gender: elifesciences.org/articles/9…

Well worth a listen if you were ever a pupil at @cbsomagh
This month our Alumni section focuses on Joe Mulryan, a pupil of the CBS from 1950-55 and a staff member from 1959-1998. Joe gives an insight into a very different school era. youtube.com/watch?v=nQgZLwwL…
Can you spot Joe in the photograph or tag someone who may be able to?

Now published in @eLife : our study of career outcomes for PhDs and postdocs who left @EMBL over 24 years. Here's a thread on why we undertook this, and some of the main findings
elifesciences.org/articles/7…
This work by @ChaoqunNi, @lariviev, @csugimoto and others has just been published as a #ReviewedPreprint in @eLife
elifesciences.org/reviewed-p…, along with public peer reviews:

Women scientists are significantly less likely than men to submit papers to @Nature, @ScienceMagazine, and @PNASNews, finds a new @biorxivpreprint study. My latest for @cenmag: cen.acs.org/policy/publishin… @squazzoni @lariviev @csugimoto @Research_Voice
What the names in this thread all have in common - besides being men - is that they are all theorists . .

Except @SpringerNature subscription journals don't allow authors to post manuscripts/preprints that have been revised in response to reviewer comments to be posted on preprint servers:
springernature.com/gp/open-r…
I read it like this: xitter.cf/Richvn/status/16458162…
So the realpolitik strategy is: send Vn to journal, have it accepted. Quickly post on biorxiv. Then mark that 'as accepted'.
Preprint servers respond to the Nelson memo:
bioRxiv, medRxiv and arXiv respond to the OSTP memo with open letters to US funding agencies 1/n
bioRxiv: connect.biorxiv.org/news/202…
medRxiv: connect.medrxiv.org/news/202…
arXiv: blog.arxiv.org/2023/04/11/ar…

This looks exciting - but it also seems to overlook this paper:

Exciting news from our lab, we have observed temporal diffraction of light from a time-varying metamaterial, and it is now published in @NaturePhysics nature.com/articles/s41567-0…🤩 imperial.ac.uk/news/244037/d… 🧵
