My article International disparities in open access practices in the Earth Sciences is still as relevant today as when it came out 5 years ago. The questions of equity and access in publishing remain just as pressing in 2025. doi.org/10.3897/ese....
The changing landscape of academic publishing: "In many countries, APCs are covered using research grants funded by national research agencies. As the demand for OA grows, ensuring fair and sustainable publishing models remains a critical issue." (1/2) journals.uu.se/AGC/article/...
From now on, we’ll be sharing monthly updates from AGC to keep our community informed and connected.
For this very first edition, here’s a quick recap of last month’s highlights: 📄 3 new publications 📨 Multiple submissions underway 🎨 A call for designs currently open
I’m delighted to have contributed three hacks to that Nature piece "It’s a new term: here are 99 lab hacks", alongside so many great tips from the community. doi.org/10.1038/d415...
Some colleagues might find alcohol-focused events off-putting or intimidating. Organize and support some social events that are alcohol-free to be more culturally inclusive. People will thank you for it. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Want to publish your geochemistry research in a diamond open access journal? 🌍💎
Join Advances in Geochemistry and Cosmochemistry journal at the Goldschmidt Conference next week and don’t miss Marc-Alban Millet’s presentation conf.goldschmidt.info/goldschmidt/...
Last year, we wrote this (still just a preprint!) to contribute to the conversation on #inclusion and representation: “Diversity at Goldschmidt conference” eartharxiv.org/repository/v... the discussions continue #Goldschmidt2025
Back when I was in high school, I remember being annoyed at scientific mistakes in the textbooks (specifically remember one about number of ATP). Now, as an experienced scientist, I spot even more, and I'm not the only one. 🧪
Textbooks often blur the lines between 'sea' and 'ocean,' missing key geological differences. Precise definitions help students grasp complex concepts, ensuring a solid foundation in earth sciences. doi.org/10.1038/d415...
Misusing terms like 'mass' and 'weight' in physics textbooks can confuse students about fundamental concepts. Clear distinctions are crucial for accurate understanding, as mass remains constant while weight varies with gravity. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
