25 examples of research with impact Luxembourg National Research Fund

I was at #REvaluation24 last week discussing the idea of demonstrating "impact" through stories

My wonderful colleague Emily Iversen is doing this for the FNR's 25th anniversary: "25 Examples of Research with Impact"

Stories of impact, beyond single project outputs.

Last week, we attended #REvaluation24 in Vienna.

@jameswilsdon.bsky.social delivered the opening keynote "Are We All Metascientists Now?", Helen Buckley Woods discussed RoRI's work on evaluating transdisciplinary research, and Peter Kolarz talked about using AI to analyze peer review reports.

I’ll start posting research culture stuff later, first killing time in an airport after a really nice #REvaluation24 conference.

Lots of ideas to chew on, and new people to push forward with… 😀
