Exciting results from early trials: paying peer reviewers can boost acceptance rates and speed up the review processβ€”without sacrificing quality! A promising way to support early-career researchers and make scientific publishing more efficient!

Publishers trial paying peer reviewers β€” what did they find? Two journals embarked on efforts to compensate reviewers, with different results.

Wouldn’t it be great if reviewing papers and grants came with fair pay? Imagine a centralised system where experts are compensated for evaluating scientific work. Maybe one day, being a professional reviewer could be a real career path!

It was so cool to see some powerful older tech alongside their modern counterpart under construction! Watching the past and future of astronomy come together was incredible, it made me super excited about what’s to come!

Starting my #BlueSkyYear with inspiring pics from the #CerroTololoObservatory in #Chile, thanks to my old friend Dr. Bruno Quint

Saw the Blanco Telescope, which contributed to Nobel-winning research, and the new Rubin Observatory, set to revolutionise astronomy with daily, wide-field space images!

Throwback to the #IceBucketChallenge. It raised millions for ALS awareness and the research continues

Excited to see my work on ALS & MS featured by Shiraz Anwar. We show that ancient viral DNA (HERVs) might play protective roles in the brain 🧠

Ancient viral DNA in the human genome protects against neurodegenerative diseases Specific ancient viral DNA sequences in the human genome are linked to genetic risk for multiple sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, suggesting these elements may influence neurodegenerative disease development through changes in gene expression.

Men talking about suicide, prostate cancer, and testicular cancer is still considered taboo, and too many suffer in silence. #Movember is changing that by funding life-saving research, raising awareness to break the stigma, and providing vital support for those who need it most.
