Very interesting result on "Competition and survival in modern academia": early career collaboration and productivity rates have emerged as reliable predictors of author survivability during the period in which competition has intensified

arXiv.orgCompetition and survival in modern academia: A bibliometric case study of theoretical high-energy physicsWe study the career lengths of researchers in theoretical high-energy physics from 1950 to 2020. Using a cohort-based analysis and bibliometric data from 30,149 authors in three physics disciplines we observe a dramatic increase in the ratio of academic dropouts over time. Where nearly all authors prior to the 1980s remained active more than a decade after their initial publication, this was the case for 50% or less by the 2010s. Consequently, the fraction of theoretical physicists who achieve full academic careers have diminished significantly in the last four decades. Additionally, we study correlations between author survivability and potential success factors, inferring that early author productivity and collaborative efforts have become increasingly strong determinants over time. A logistic regression is utilized to interpret the empirical findings through a survival model. Performance measures further indicate that early career collaboration and productivity rates have emerged as reliable predictors of author survivability during the period in which competition has intensified. Finally, we discuss the potential impacts that these developments may have on science itself.

After winning the #TEDPrize on March 2, 2011, the French #artist JR launched the #InsideOutProject, in his first #TEDTalk. Using his own #artistic practice as inspiration, this participatory platform helps individuals and communities to make a statement by displaying large-scale black and white #portraits in public spaces. Through their “Actions,” communities around the world have sparked #collaborations and conversations.

Over the past decade, more than 500,000 people spanning across 152 countries and territories have participated in the Inside Out Project. Thanks to participants' donations, the project has reached all the continents, with over 2,500 actions created. Actions have revolved around a range of topics: #diversity, #community, #feminism, #racism, #ClimateChange, #education, #ChildrensRights, and #art are just a few of them. Posters are displayed in outdoor spaces that are visible to the public. These #GroupAction #ArtInstallations are documented and shared online.

[Back to the far side ... of the #Moon] This is the title of the documentary devoted to the Chang'e-6 mission, which took the #DORN instrument (IRAP & @cnes) to the far side of the #Moon and brought back samples of lunar #regolith.

This documentary details the stakes of this mission, the international #collaborations (France, ESA, Italy, Pakistan), and the mission's progress and expectations.

It’s time for some #introductions

#UNSW is a significant world player in the development of #ArtificialIntelligence (AI), #DataScience (#DS) and MachineLearning (#ML) technology.

UNSW’s extensive track record in the #ResearchAndDevelopment of #AI and its application is well recognised globally. Our academic staff hold many prestigious fellowships, and our staff, students and alumni have started many AI technology enterprises.

We will be sharing about our #projects and #innovations and look forward to building new #collaborations

Also our #robots 🤖 are some of the best #soccer (#football) players in the world.

Located in Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands or "Aolepān Aorōkin Ṃajeḷ" in Marshallese, consist of 5 inhabited islands and 29 Coral atolls.
I have a soft spot for musical #collaborations between cultures, so this song by Isaiah feat. Joss Stone caught my interest. The short interview at the start also provides info on the song. And let's appreciate that Joss Stone gave Isaiah centre stage, umm, beach?

-Time for a short #Introduction-

I am a group leader in #MedicinalChemistry at the University of Parma. My lab combines #chemical & #computational techniques to develop novel pharmacological tools to study different Chronic Diseases (#CysticFibrosis, #IBD, #Hypercholesterolemia, #Alzheimer, #Cancer) and Infective Agents (#SARSCoV2, #Enterovirus, #Flavivirus, #Monkeypox, #HIV).
We are particularly interested in the development of #MultiTarget inhibitors and open to new #collaborations in #DrugDiscovery.
#Tooting (sooner or later) about the #chemistry and #science
