From our archive: "In der Wissenskrise? Politisierung von Wissen und Expertise als Herausforderung für die Soziologie" by Sebastian Büttner (Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg). If you attended last year's @dgsoziologie@mastodon.social you know that the topic is as relevant as it was in 2023. https://hu.berlin/episode32

In our new #podcast episode, J. W. Schneider (Aarhus University, Denmark), speaks about questionable Research Practices, what are they and so should we worry?
The talk is based on the article „Is something rotten in the state of Denmark?" https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0304342

Our colleague @optykali@openbiblio.social published a collection of notes on core concepts in #bibliometrics directed at newcomers to the field. They are also a valuable resource for administrators, policymakers and other people interested in "how the sausage is made". https://bibliometrics-quick-notes.github.io/
