To add context, part of why there were so many more applicants is because they moved DECRA back six months, effectively skipping funding the scheme for a year. They had to extend eligibility as a result, so this was essentially two years in one. But with no adjustment to number of grants awarded.

Uni settlement makes courts an investment opportunity for unions
A $450,000 “contrition” payment Monash University has agreed to pay the academics’ union is a game-changer that will scale up its legal actions across the sector.

If you've had any tough days during #AcWriMo, I highly recommend adopting Taika Waititi's expansive classification system for writing. Another handy tip from the academia / writing / research meme stash. #PhDchat #academicsky #academicchatter #highered

New challenge for busy researchers who lament that they don't have time to think these days:
For 2026, plan for thinking time, or time to do nothing (which is when some of the best ideas happen). Protect it. Make it sacrosanct.
If you don't take your thinking time seriously, no-one else will.

This banger from the academia / writing / research meme stash definitely has wider applicability but I do really like using it for coaching, mentoring, and workshop activities when we talk about the importance of saying 'no' to things as researchers. #academicchatter #academicsky #PhDchat

Maybe it’s just the Humanities professor in me, but let it be noted that events of today (ahem) have demonstrated the value of being able to assess a large volume of qualitative data and do careful textual analysis with deep attention to context.
