Just had a flick through the ‘Top 100 Scholars’ in the ScholarGPS citation rankings. Only one is female and she died in 2017. So before you promote your institution’s ‘Top Scholars’ stop and think whether being male and highly cited is really your definition of ‘top’. scholargps.com/highly-ranke...
Already looking forward to our next adventure-until then, safe travels and keep inspiring change! #ResearchCulture #TeamINORMS #MoreThanOurRank #SCOPE
A huge thank you to Elizabeth for her visionary leadership, and to every member of this passionate, dedicated group for your commitment and good humour. I’m grateful for the trust and support as Deputy Chair, and proud of what we’ve built together.
Our Away Day in orange t-shirts was full of fun, sharing gifts, and celebrating achievements. We presented #SCOPE and #ResponsibleResearchAssessment with Laura Himanen and Baron G. Wolf, Ph.D. Every moment reinforced the power of international collaboration to reshape research assessment culture.
What an incredible experience to finally meet so many of our Research Evaluation Group @inorms-reg.bsky.social colleagues in person at #INORMS2025 in Madrid! After years of mostly online collaboration, coming together-14 out of 19 of us-was both energizing and inspiring.
Excited for #INORMS2025 in Madrid! The INORMS Research Evaluation Group will showcase the #SCOPE Framework & #MoreThanOurRank in 3 sessions on building better research cultures. Details & schedule here:

Thanks for some truly inspiring days at this year’s NARMA conference. I was honored to speak alongside Dr. Lizzie Gadd @lizziegadd.bsky.social at the session “Cultivating better research cultures through exploration, transformation & evaluation”. #ResearchCulture #RRA #SCOPEframework #NARMA2025
@tanjastrom.bsky.social knocking it out the park, describing the @inorms-reg.bsky.social #SCOPE framework at #NARMA2025 as a mechanism for assessing research culture.
INORMS Research Evaluation Group have developed the SCOPE framework, a practical tool for ensuring evaluations are fair and comprehensive. Plus, our "More Than Our Rank" initiative challenges the limitations of global university rankings. Dive in and join the conversation inorms.net/research-eva...

Science is in dire need of heroes! Because the science system needs to reform, Sarah de Rijcke says in this blog post.
Sarah de Rijcke:"If we want our work to be meaningful, we need to invest more in building strong academic communities that value collaboration and share a commitment to advancing research and teaching, while making a positive impact on and with society."

Lizzy Gadd’s keynote at #STI2023: Narratives without evidence can quickly become a fiction. But indikators without narratives are only half the story.
Excited to coauthor this article introducing the SCOPE framework for responsible research assessment (RRA) and situates it within the sector-wide drive towards more meaningful and robust research evaluation practices. Available in preprint: f1000research.com/articles/12-...

Lizzy Gadd @LizzieGadd at this mornings keynote at #STI2023: Narratives without evidence can quickly become a fiction. But indikators without narratives are only half the story.
Responsible research assessment provides an opportunity to rebuild trust in evaluative approaches. Lizzy Gadd @LizzieGadd explored how we might achieve this with particular focus on INORMS SCOPE Framework for responsible research evaluation in this mornings keynote at #STI2023
The #SCOPE framework supports evaluators in any and every research setting to implement the many complementary principles of #RRA in the design and delivery of their evaluation approaches. In this way it bridges the gap between principles and practice.
