Glad to catch up w @rosetrappes.bsky.social who is visiting Munich to continue work on research environments & citizen science. With 1/2 the papers of our @epsaphilsci.bsky.social EJPS collection published & 1/2 under review, time to start drafting an editorial! link.springer.com/collections/...

Spent last 3 days evaluating Italian Centre for Supercomputing (Centro Nazionale per Ricerca in HPC, Big Data & Quantum Computing): www.supercomputing-icsc.it/en/icsc-home/ Achievements will transform Italy & beyond, crucial question is how to assess social demands, implications, accountabilities

New report from PHIL_OS project! In a collaboration w #OpenScience at #NASA, led by Paola Castaño & funded by #ERC, we survey Analysis Working Groups to investigate dynamics and conditions of space biology #data re-use and engagement - and propose steps forward 🧪 zenodo.org/records/1485...

We've had an amazing response to the call for papers, panels and pre-conference symposia, but just in case you needed a few more days to finalise your proposal, the deadline has been extended until the end of this week!

Turns out a bunch of philosophers have independently used the #niche concept to think about science. @sabinaleonelli.bsky.social and I looked into these and built a framework for research niches. Paper coming out in #EJPS soon, preprint up at philsci-archive.pitt.edu/24675/

It is fitting that my first talk after losing my beloved mother will centre on using AI to *foster* democratic processes & planetary health. There’s no escaping tech impacts & we need to devise constructive ways forward, fuelled by hope. If in Prague tomorrow, join us! llm4dem.vse.cz/dd2025

Grateful to Mark Huskisson, the co-chair of OPERAS operas-eu.org, for this insightful article on diversity and Open Science, linking my philosophical work to ongoing @unitednationsbk.bsky.social & other intrnl developments in scholarly comms - great read! scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2025/01/22/g...

Last chance to sign up for the premiere of our film Data Shadows this Thursday (16/01 at 17:30) - come meet the film directors, artists and colleagues at the Filmpalast in Munich, and enjoy the one hour event and celebratory drink! Registration is free at the link below

A conversation with philosophers of science and data, @sabinaleonelli.bsky.social and Dr Vlasta Sikimić, which I had the privilege to moderate. youtu.be/VfEutWbyNZ0

On 1/01/2025 I wish to thank all without whom the Exeter phase of my life would have been an impossible dream and the move to Munich an impossible transition. May 2025 be kind to all despite expectations, and may we have strength to care for the planet and each other

On Jan 16 join us for the Munich launch of the art film Data Shadows - born of a collaboration with Jacob van der Beugel & Oliver Page, it explores the lives of data in ways that I find magical ✨ info & trailers: opensciencestudies.eu/datashadowsf... To register: tumthinktank.de/event/data-s...

After working on this paper for three years, delighted to see it out - we propose a way to defuse the tension between data openness and responsible dat management, by pushing the FINDABILITY of data and the opportunities for connections among data users #philsci #openscience

Quick reminder to anybody who happens to be in Munich today: You are warmly invited to 1st event under my new chair at TUM, on Understanding Misinformation, 15:30 in Hansa Haus Briennerstr. 39. we’ll hold a drinks reception afterwards. Registration and more info: www.eventbrite.com/e/1058119206...

In an era where data-intensive research dominate, this work shows the critical importance of understanding local contexts. @sabinaleonelli.bsky.social aptly highlights the systemic issues: Who governs, controls, and profits from agricultural data? #Biodiversity 🧪🌎

LSE Impact Blog just published this piece on our ongoing thinking about case-based metrics for #OpenScience - in a world which continues to require assessment metrics to provide actionable evidence, important to utilize highly informative qualitative findings blogs.lse.ac.uk/impactofsoci...

Starting from #inclusion will get a better #openscience up to its expectations @sabinaleonelli.bsky.social #munin2024

#openscience is not about sharing resources. It’s about “judicious connections” , a process oriented #openscience , situated and responsive @sabinaleonelli.bsky.social #munin2024 conference

On my way to Trømso for Munin Conference 2024, where I’ll give a keynote & run a workshop on transdisciplinary, public research together with Pianeta, an Italian NGO I helped found devoted to youth support vis-a-vis social and environmental crises. Programme here: site.uit.no/muninconf/pr...

Just out: “Globalising Plant Knowledge Beyond Bioprospecting” (collection on Ethnoscience hosted by History of Anthropology Review). 1st of a series of papers on extractive epistemologies which my next monograph will treat in detail - comments warmly welcome! histanthro.org/notes/global...

European Philosophy of Science Association invites submissions for #EPSA25 in Groningen (the Netherlands) from 27 to 30 August 2025. Deadline for all submissions is by 31 January 2025, 11:55pm GMT. #philsci philsci.eu/EPSA25/CfP

Back in Munich after an incredible #PSA2024, for which I am grateful to all organisers and fellow participants.. the mountain of last-of-2024 deadlines is scary, but beautiful to have so much happening in run-up to Christmas, as I continue to settle in the new city & meet new brilliant colleagues

Today will be so busy in Canal Street, New Orleans! #PSA 2024 opens with an amazing slate of cognate sessions (I am attending Phil of Med one on NAMs and the ISHPSSB session on classifying species in danger) and this PM I host “Openness and Inequity in Research” site.pheedloop.com/event/psa24/...

This sums up the situation vis-a-vis Brexit in today's UK nicely. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... Hard to see how the country can make vital strategic decisions under this tyranny of upside-down.

A panel debate on what the future of philosophy of science may or should be - with Heather Douglas, Holly Andersen, Alan Love and other wonderful participants to this memorable event for our field, now available on YouTube: youtu.be/p9RUc3pYngs?...

I just worked out how to host a wine after the workshop on misinformation on 9 December - tiny step towards settling in Munich 😅, a precious opportunity to debate how to address this huge concern going into 2025. If you are in town, register & join us! www.sts.sot.tum.de/en/sts/home/...

Finalising slides for my talk in Venice later today… one of my favorite cities! And such a honour to help inaugurate the research centre “Trust in Philosophy and Science” (TIPS) under the directorship of the wonderful Eleonora Montuschi at Ca'​ Foscari www.unive.it/data/33113/8...
