‘Why is publishing so expensive?’ url: journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/...
MSCA has supported many ECR and amazing research over the years.
Yet, the increase in applicants (+64%) for MSCA postdoctoral fellowships (linked to ECR fleeing the US?) has not been met by an increased budget.
Thus a score of 96.4/100 is not enough this year to have a project funded.
Some (old) but new research being finally published 8 years after conducting the experiment!

I am extremely sad for the amazing young researcher who applied to join my lab, and for all the others.
@ec.europa.eu, it is urgent to increase funding to support our young talents; they are the future of scientific reasearch and part of the barrier against the rising fascism and populism
Just starting to realize that double-blind reviewing (which is good) kind of conflicts with preprint publishing (which also is good). Has this been discussed?

Here, we tested if extra feeding lesser kestrel nestlings during development (and under a heatwave) can help them deal with extreme heat. Spoiler: they really struggle. Extra food helps them grow when it’s just hot, but not under a heatwave. See 👇
