The Program Committee welcomes submissions on all topics in the science of science and innovation, broadly defined. We invite contributions from researchers and practitioners across all disciplines, sectors, and world regions, with a particular encouragement for early-career scholars. Major conference themes include, but are not limited to: AI, agentic science, and new epistemic practices in scientific discovery Global knowledge dynamics and the evolution of scientific fields Government-industry-academia partnerships and innovation systems Societal impacts and public value of science and innovation Science funding in an interconnected, multi-sectoral, and global environment Social stratification, bias, and ethical issues in scientific production and reward Open science, transparency, and reproducibility in research The scientific workforce, precarity, and the trajectory of research careers Theoretical, historical, and conceptual perspectives on science and innovation Causal inference and methodological advances in the science of science and innovation Science communication, public trust, and the governance of emerging technologies Intellectual property, patents, and the geography of technological change

Absolutely crazy but not surprising at all on how GenAI is affecting our information ecosystem.
A year ago, I came across a similar example of a preprint that was full of hallu-citations (linking it in the thread)
#SciSci
A paper that was likely generated by an #LLM with possible hallu-citations, received scores of 8/10 (poster acceptance level) from two of its three #ICLR (top ML conference) reviewers. (Un)fortunately, the third reviewer caught the issues and gave it a zero.

FAIRness differed mainly by repository, with GitHub and OSF showing lower median scores than PsychArchives, Zenodo, and Figshare
How FAIR is shared data in psychology?
We analyzed 11,384 datasets (2013–2024): They're findable, but less reusable!
What relates most to differences in FAIRness? #Repository choice.

1/7🧵Ignoring race, gender & income doesn’t deliver fairness—it deepens inequity. 🚫
Policies that erase demographic data in admissions don’t level the field. They hide barriers and advantage those already holding resources. Check out the evidence below!

An important piece on #AI generated #preprints and why it's important to consider their impact on scientific ecosystem.
Some other important considerations related to this that are not covered in the article 👇

In that spirit, within #SciSci, critiques of navel-gazing may often target those studying people (e.g., retracted scientists, postdocs, students, academics) rather than processes (e.g., peer review, idea generation).

On "navel-gazing" in science..
and why we should rethink how we use this term in research discourse.

Today, my dear colleague @annameret.bsky.social presented our work on data sharing in psychology at @icssi.bsky.social ✨We show that open data is findable, but less reusable.

The spillover from events like this extends beyond a single paper. When a high-profile study like this is withdrawn, especially one that was widely discussed and covered, it has broader implications. This study had an Altmetric score of over 130.

Case in point the increasing prevalence of puzzle-solving & mop-up work around “Can GPT do X”. Has a “general purpose” instrument ever in the history become such a wide-spread object of study, disrupting what gets studied, who gets to & how?

In this article, @shahanmemon.bsky.social et al. examine the impact that having a paper retracted has on scientists' subsequent careers.

Through the Eye of Agamotto (and @retractionwatch.com), our new research in @naturehumbehav.bsky.social navigates the multiverse of academic chaos to reveal the impact of scientific #retractions on publishing careers.
Here's a true story..

Fibromyalgia (FM) affects 2-3% of the population. Aside from widespread pain and fatigue, most people with FM have problems sleeping and these problems are usually poorly managed. (1/7)
