🎉 We are very happy to announce that Peter Grunwald (CWI/Leiden University) has been awarded an ERC Advanced Grant of 2.5 million euros by the European Research Council (ERC) for the project FLEX (Flexible Statistical Inference)!   Grünwald will use the prestigious grant for the development of a new, more robust and flexible theory of statistics based on the novel concept of e-value. This will lead, for example, to more reliable methods for determining whether or not scientific results are statistically significant. In short: the e-value is the new p-value.   🔗 Read more in the news item on our website: https://lnkd.in/eRPshu9f   #Statistics #Mathematics #ERCAdvanced

FEATURED MBoC ASSOCIATE EDITOR: Gregory Pazour, University of Massachusetts Chan Medical School How can MBoC benefit researchers in your area? “Communication of research through publication is critical to the scientific enterprise. Publication in MBoC gives your work wide visibility by being promoted to the entire ASCB community. The process is facilitated by peer editors that are experts in your field and will make fast and fair decisions about the suitability of the work for publication." https://lnkd.in/gKuGp-Bi

From the huge paper "Operational Research: Methods and Applications" "Despite the large body of literature, the role and impact of OR on improving care systems is less clear. Hospitals have “largely failed to use one of the most potent methods currently available for improving the performance of complex organisations” (Buhaug, 2002) and “staff may be largely unaware of the potential applications and benefits of OR” (Utley et al., 2022). " This is simply user resistance. I know a case in which doctors have refused to use/implement a model to schedule their shifts because the solutions put them working in some periods they didn't like. This give us an example of how hard is to apply rational methods to guide activities connected with higher social status (justice, medicine, politics) and how these same methods are recklessly used to move the "pawns" as simple objects.

Today with Carlos Rodríguez del Río , Embase Product Manager, at Elsevier during the training session in The Academy of Scientific Research and Technology (ASRT). The session was introduced by Elsevier Representatives. The primary objective is to emphasize the importance of systematic reviews in research, educate on best practices and methodologies, address common challenges researchers face, and offer practical advice for conducting systematic reviews efficiently. #Elsevier #ASRT #EDA #systematic_reviews

Instead of "figuring it out as you go," Durham Technical Community College is reshaping clinical research training by incorporating simulation-based learning. Led by Program Director, Sharleen Traynor, PhD, MPH, these innovative academic programs offer a comprehensive toolkit for establishing safe, yet realistic research environments. Attend Sharlene's session at #ACRP2024 to learn how these exercises benefit site-level and sponsor activities, and gain insights into implementing the techniques in your research studies.

Hot off the press and ready for BSBF2024: "Fostering innovation through Big Science procurement". My research shows that #bigscience #procurement is a significant motor of #innovation, and how that can be used by companies and Big Science research infrastructures in their strategy for innovation and #impact. I identified the Big Science Business Forum #BSBF is one of the most important tools in fostering upstream #Technologytransfer from Big Science. €10 in print, €5 for the e-book, from SteinbeisEdition. #letsdobigscience #publicprocurement #innovationprocurement #ESFRI #Steinbeis ESFRI - European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures PERIIA Association - Pan-European Research Infrastructure Industry Liaison Officers' Association Steinbeis GmbH & Co.

🚨Delighted to share the first paper from my PhD Research, published in PLOS One. Open Access via: https://lnkd.in/eqQj97-G Huge thanks to my amazing supervisors Anne Matthews & Gillian Paul. This Mixed Methods Systematic Review has enabled a detailed understanding, synthesis and integration of the predominant factors associated with this modernistic practice of Informal Human Milk Sharing IHMS and detail an array of factors associated with IHMS from the key actors involved in this emerging, and rapidly advancing practice. #ConvergentintegratedMMSR #informalhumanmilksharing
