In June 2022 I (Yani) become the rOpenSci Community Manager. To do a good job in this kind of role it is essential to know your community, so as soon I started I dug in: reading our documentation, learning our processes and their metrics, and conducting interviews with team-mates and community members.

Flat rotation curves and the Baryonic Tully-Fisher relation (BTFR) both follow from the Radial Acceleration Relation (RAR). In Mistele et al. (2024b) we emphasize the exciting aspects of the former; these follow from the RAR in the Mistele et al. (2024a). It is worth understanding the connection.

Estamos muito contentes em anunciar o lançamento do livro Teoria com Dados , que é o primeiro de uma série sobre a análise quantitativa da mudança social, que estamos preparando para ser publicada pela Editora IHC.

Through the 2021 partnership between DataCite and IGSN e.V., DataCite services can be used to register International Generic Sample Numbers (IGSN IDs) for material samples. Over the coming months, the blog series ‘IGSN ID Implementation Exemplars’ will showcase sample management workflows developed by the community that incorporate IGSN ID registration. In each post, we offer practical guidance on how to work alongside disciplinary sample experts to register IGSN IDs within DataCite services.

GFZ Data Services is hosted at the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences. It is a research data repository for DOI-referenced data and scientific software from the Geosciences, and provides IGSN ID registration for geosamples. GFZ Data Services was a founding member of IGSN e.V. in 2011, and until 31 December 2022, when the IGSN PID infrastructure transitioned under DataCite, GFZ Data Services was responsible for managing the central IGSN handle server that registered more than 10.5 Million IGSN IDs. As IGSN Allocating Agent, GFZ Data Services has assigned close to 39,000 material samples with IGSN IDs for its community. Almost 3,000 IGSN IDs have been directly registered within DataCite services since the transition.

The post IGSN ID Implementation Exemplars: GFZ Data Services appeared first on DataCite.

I've been playing around with generating non-equilibrium conformations by molecular dynamics recently, and I've been thinking about how to best parse the outputs of a dynamics simulation.

Scientometric researchers, Drs. Giovanni Abramo and Andrea D’Angelo, discuss their recent study on Italy’s national accreditation system (ASN) and whether it incentivizes specialization or diversification of researchers’ portfolios. The results may surprise you! Imagine a world where scientists and researchers have to balance their passion for advancing knowledge with an ever-watchful eye on performance metrics.

We put forward a taxonomy of externalization policies, distinguishing the spaces in which states control human movements and limit their legal obligations towards people seeking protection as well as the means by which they exercise power. Essentially, states have strived to control territorial space, legal space, diplomatic space, and mental space.

Evolution is easier than we think, and one great way to see why is to look at what we know about protein evolution. Proteins have been evolving on our planet for about 4 billion years. Their appearance almost certainly precedes the beginning of life itself. We still don't know how the whole thing got off the ground, but once the stage was set (in living cells), evolution began exploring Protein Space.
