I think it's hard to overstate how much Simine has changed research practices and standards in psychology for the better, despite at times massive resistance from powerful parties with a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. Very well deserved award imho 🥳
My amazing friend and MetaMelb co-director @simine.com has won the 2025 Einstein Foundation Award! @unimelb.bsky.social @psychunimelb.bsky.social and @replicats.bsky.social are so lucky to have you
Screenshot of tweet from the ARC saying they’ll announce DECRA and LIEF outcomes on Tuesday 25th Nov.
ARC says they’ll announce DECRA and LIEF outcomes tomorrow (Tuesday 25th Nov).
In recent times these announcements have been around 11am Canberra time. With 2 schemes on the same day, I assume they’ll announce one of them later in the day (probably DECRA first).

🎉 50,000 listens! Thanks to everyone supporting The HPS Podcast, we're so grateful
We're proudly graduate-run— & work hard to provide episodes that reflect our community’s questions and passions, and the richness of ideas across HPS
Lots to come! Including some exciting developments for S6
(1/2)
Oh! And casual explanations in science (S3,Ep2)—often wondered what you’d think of that one @dingdingpeng.the100.ci
@tespiteri.bsky.social @samaragreenwood.bsky.social may have more suggestions
Check out @hpspodcast.bsky.social for quick introductions to a range of Phil of Sci topics. For psych students I’d start with: values in science (S1,Ep7 + S5,Ep4); disunity of science (S1,Ep2); philosophy of measurement (S5,Ep5); and epistemic iteration (S2,Ep11). Episode notes include references
This episode is so great I hardly know where to start!The last ~15mins will be especially interesting to metascientists, including the most thoughtful plan for reforming scientific/research funding I think I’ve ever heard. Wow! #Metascience2025

Metascience’s big tent 🏕️
Some reflections from @scurry.bsky.social and @jameswilsdon.bsky.social after hosting #Metascience2025 last week - as we all continue digesting the insights and engaging with the interesting post-conference discussions: www.researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-poli...
Anyone had the experience of getting only one assessor’s report on an ARC DP?
Clarifying for those following from home—that morning plenary “centred on” @crsugimoto.bsky.social talk, not Ioannidis’
Thank you @sabinaleonelli.bsky.social. Very glad you were there!
Hey, I think this might mean we’re on the same flight!
Where at the airport will you be expanding on these thoughts? I’m on my way there now!
It was Cambridge I had in mind FWIW—so sorry UCL!
I thought you’d appreciate @nicolecnelson.bsky.social’s title!
There might be a need for a “continuously operating” caveat in my claim? Or perhaps I’m just wrong?
Expressions of interest in this Metascience PhD scholarship @unimelb are open now
Now awaiting responses unpacking conflation of Popper and NP hyp testing. In fact, I dare you…
N=1 (hotel in Vienna). Sampling frame defined by distance from train. Stopping rule = price. No further address-related hypotheses were made prior to data collection. Post-hoc analysis may follow.
Wondering where to publish your Metascience research?👇
"Bak-Coleman and others say the reformers should have seen that their claims and concerns could be weaponized by antiscience movements, and done more to prevent that." I often write about sci reform & I'm genuinely curious, how do you "prevent that"?

We are beyond excited to announce that we have won the prestigious 2024 BSHS Ayrton Prize for Digital Engagement!
