Overall text reads: "Unbelievable". Below that, two images of a frying pan. The first image is full of spinach and has accompanying text: "amount of reading I did". The second image (presumably after the process of wilting) shows only one small, shrunken piece of spinach with accompanying text: "citations I got out of it."
Except, sadly, it is believable. Today I offer you a spinach-based insight from the research / writing / academia meme stash. #highered #academicchatter #academicsky #PhDchat #resdev #resdevmemes

When research is funded by taxpayer dollars, OA ensures the public can see the results of their investment, it also accelerates innovation and policy-maling by putting information into more hands.
Though this doesn’t mean it’s always free to publish, but it guarantees it’s free to read
What exactly is open access? You’ve likely heard the term, but what does it mean to you as a researcher?
Open access (OA) is research that is distributed online, free of cost. This ensures that everyone, from a new researcher to a curious taxpayer, can access the findings without hitting a paywall.

#Research shows when you feel good together, you #age better!
A study of 321 older couples found that when partners experienced positive emotions simultaneously, their cortisol levels dropped.
These shared “good moments” boosted physiological well-being regardless of relationship satisfaction.

Have you heard of #CitationChaining before?
It’s one strategy for uncovering more relevant research by exploring the references around an article you’re already reading.
📚 Backward chaining: Who informed or influenced this study?
🔎 Forward chaining: Who has cited it and expanded on the work since?
