As a new Community Engagement Manager at Crossref, dedicated to working with the funders community, I frequently hear requests for examples and case studies of adopting Crossref’s Grant Linking System (GLS) by ‘funders like us’.

Migrationsdiskurse in deutschen Medien sind überwiegend problemzentriert und defizitorientiert. Die Berichterstattung über die „Willkommenskultur“ im Zuge des langen Sommers der Migration schien diesen diskursiven Fokus zu verändern.

Researchers increasingly use the Open Science Framework (OSF) to share files, such as data and code underlying scientific publications, or presentations and materials for scientific workshops.
