    The Global Dynamics of Open Data - and where it leaves diversity. A conversation with Mark Hahnel

    Open data has been a recurring theme on the podcast - for better or worse. Every year, Digital Science and Springer Nature publish a report on the status of open science, so we thought this year's report was a good occasion to take stock and have a good discussion not only on the status of open status but also on where it's going, how and why. To help us, we invited one of the report's authors, Mark Hahnel from Digital Science, to the podcast to discuss the report titled 'Bridging Policy and ...

    Motherhood in academia. A conversation with Lisette Espïn-Noboa.

    As two cis-gendered men without children, talking about motherhood in academia isn't really our forte. So, with Lachlan travelling, we took the opportunity to invite Hélène Draux from Digitial Science as guest co-host with Jakob for a conversation about motherhood in academia with Lisette Espín-Noboa and the role it plays in the gender gap. Lisette is a postdoc at the Complexity Science Hub and Central European University.We discuss the structural issues within academic institutions that disp...

    If AI, open science and impact is transforming science - where does that leave diversity? A conversation with Digital Science

    There is no doubt that AI has thrown a lot of our conceptions of science—or at least how we work in and with science—up in the air. Digital Science has written a report about it: “Research Transformation: Change in the Era of AI, open and Impact: voices from the Academic Community.” We invited two of the authors, Suze Kundu and Simon Porter, on the podcast to chat about where this transformation leaves EDI and minorities. We explore the evolving landscape of research practices, the...

    Diversity and internationalisation for smaller research institutions – the case of GuildHE.

    Many of us tend to forget that all research institutions are not big, comprehensive universities. Actually, quite a few are smaller institutions either because they are fairly new, specialize in a single discipline, or are based in more rural areas where there isn’t the population needed for a big research-intensive university. But how do you navigate international collaborations in a setting like that? And diversity, if you’re a small, almost mono-cultural institution? Should it be up t...

    The Role of Publishers in equity, diversity and inclusion. A conversation with SpringerNature’s Sowmya Swaminathan.

    We often discuss researchers and research managers on the podcast, but publishers are also key players in the research ecosystem. So, we invited SpingerNature to discuss their report “Insights into diversity, equity and inclusion in the global research community.” Sowmya Swaminathan, their director of DEI, Research who also directs Springer Nature's DEI Program in Research Publishing and serves on the Springer Nature Group DEI Council, joined us for a chat about DEI in the global researc...

    "If everyone quits, the injustices will continue." A conversation with Laura Heath-Stout about her new book.

    Welcome back to Laura Heath-Stout - our first return guest on the podcast!Laura is a postdoctoral fellow in archaeology at Stanford University. She has a new book out: 'Identity, Oppression, and Diversity in Archaeology.', so we wanted her back on the podcast for a chat about it. And while we aren't all archaeologists the peculiar dimensions of archaeology, such as excavations, rights to data, etc., perhaps make them a canary in the academic coal mine. It is a very personal book where sh...

    Diversity is about more than gender - but it's also about gender. Marcela Linkova on the GenderSAFE project.

    Gender equality in academia and research has been a topic for decades. And between that and the #metoo movement, one would think we had solved the problems. Yet, here we are. While we usually say that diversity is more than gender, it's also gender. So we invited Marcela Linkova from the GenderSAFE project on the podcast to discuss the project and their mid-way report and for a broader discussion about gender and how we advance the agenda. We discussed the project, what gender-based...

    Equitable research partnerships across Africa and Europe - challenges and opportunities

    Creating equitable research collaborations between the Global North and Global South has been a struggle for many years. How do you create equitability when there is a structural imbalance in the core element of research: funding? And how do you balance the need for global collaboration with differences in values on diversity issues like gender, race, LGTBQ+ issues, etc.?These are not easy questions, but the Guild of Research Intensive Universities (The Guild) and African Research Universitie...
