Dr. Jen Beaudry @drjbeaudry.bsky.social is closing the #AIMOS2025 conference, pointing out new and existing fellowship and funding opportunities for meta-research projects. "We are having a Meta Moment of $6.5 million dollars!" We end with a very meta photo of the conference chairs! Thank you!

So much energy and laughter in a Jeopardy-style game about Responsible Research Assessment with DORA. Thanks @ginnybarbour.bsky.social @dorassessment.bsky.social #AIMOS2025

1. James Heathers, @jamesheathers.bsky.social with: The evolving field of forensic metascience: ForMet: Modify trust by evaluating research accuracy of scientific documents by tools. It is not designed to find fraud. A lot of science is bad/wrong. #AIMOS2025

What does the ideal education in publication intergrity look like? How are students and ECRs supposed to learn how to identify unreliable research? @pranujanp.bsky.social @jabyrnesci.bsky.social @aidybarnett.bsky.social #AIMOS2025

Day 2 at #AIMOS2025 is underway with our mini-notes session on Commercial Determinants of Health. Karen Lee talks about the role of commercial influences on the number of publications in prevention research.

An insightful and informative session with Ivan Oransky from @retractionwatch.com for the #AIMOS2025 Public Talk.

Day 1 is ending with Ivan Oransky's @retractionwatch.com public lecture. #aimos2025

Two conferences on science quality this week Worth looking through the tags for the International Research Integrity Conference #IRICSydney and the Association for Interdisciplinary Meta-research & Open Science Conference #AIMOS2025

The final paper is the destination. The version history is the journey, and it matters too. 🗺️ #Preprints enable versioning, providing a clear indication of how your research evolves over time. It makes your research more complete and transparent. #PhDsky #EducationalResearch #SciComm #metasci

#AIMOS2025 Day 1 is well underway. I love seeing the enthusiasm from all attendees.

"I'm not influenced." "My colleagues are influenced, but I'm not." "I have ties with all the, companies, so I'm not influenced by any.” Lisa Bero describing the ways people rationalise their conflicts of interest, opening the #AIMOS2025 conference @aimosinc.bsky.social
