SUMMARY:Outsmarting scammers in research and publishing: tips from a battle-hardened editor
DESCRIPTION:We live in a world where access to high quality information is at a premium\, yet the challenges of knowing what and who to trust have never been harder. Academic journals are at the forefront of this information war\, and editors have had to become adept at navigating it to ensure their journals’ role as trusted collaborators with academics and trusted sources for readers. \nProfessor Ginny Barbour\, who is currently Editor-in-Chief at the Medical Journal of Australia and has worked across publishing in three continents\, and the Co-Chair of the Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA)\, will give an insider’s view on what to beware of and how to thrive in this new Information Age. \nThe public talk will commence at 4pm\, and we invite you to join us for a drinks and nibbles reception afterwards. \nWith thanks to QUT Vice-Chancellor and President\, Professor Margaret Sheil AO\, for hosting this special event. Please note this is an in-person event\, and places are limited. \n \nEvent photo by Ronda Dorsey on Unsplash

SUMMARY:Prof Jennifer Byrne Guest Seminar: Publishing in the age of research paper mills
DESCRIPTION:Prof Jennifer Byrne Guest Seminar: Choosing reliable journals and publishers in the age of research paper mills\nProfessor Jennifer Byrne is a cancer researcher who has studied the integrity of the cancer research literature since 2017. In this guest presentation\, Prof Byrne will outline changes to research publishing that have occurred over the past 20 years. She will introduce paper mills as organisations providing undisclosed publishing services\, including the fabrication of manuscripts at scale. She will then describe how manuscript submission requirements and researcher assessments are changing in response to paper mills\, what these changes mean for researchers today\, and outline steps that we can all take to read\, review for\, submit to and support quality journals and publishers. \nProfessor Byrne has spent her scientific career analyzing childhood and adult cancers at a molecular level. She is Director of Biobanking with NSW Health Pathology\, and Professor of Molecular Oncology in the School of Medical Sciences in the Faculty of Medicine and Health\, University of Sydney.

SUMMARY:Carl Bergstrom Public Lecture
DESCRIPTION:The crisis of human collective decision-making in a social media world\nCarl Bergstrom is a theoretical and evolutionary biologist and a professor at the University of Washington in Seattle\, Washington\, United States. A critic of low-quality or misleading scientific research\, Bergstrom’s work concerns the flow of information through biological and social networks. He is the co-author of a book on misinformation called Calling Bullshit: The Art of Skepticism in a Data-Driven World. \nIn this talk\, Carl looks at what social media and information technology more generally are doing to society. Over the past twenty years\, society has fashioned the web into an information pipeline to satisfy and profit from our evolved desires for novel information and social connection. What happens when the scale of human communication is radically transformed in the span of the generation\, and our mechanisms for creating collective understanding no longer promote the spread of accurate information\, strengthen democracy\, and advance human well-being? \nCarl considers how we ended up here\, and explores some possible suggestions for what we can do about it. \nRegister to join us from 5:00pm for drinks and nibbles before the public lecture at 6:00pm. \nWith thanks to QUT Vice-Chancellor Professor Margaret Sheil AO for hosting this special event. The free lecture forms part of AIMOS 2023: The fifth annual conference of the Association for Interdisciplinary Metaresearch & Open Science. If you are attending AIMOS\, you do not need to register for this lecture on Eventbrite.
