ICYMI: SpectrumX – An NSF Spectrum Innovation Center researchers had five papers published at TPRC51. The papers covered topics across unassigned spectrum, artificial intelligence on Indian Reservations in the U.S., CBRS, governance of federated platforms, and comparing GSO and NGSO satellite filings submitted to the FCC. From the story: "TPRC is one of the top venues for work related to spectrum policy,” said Randall Berry, SpectrumX research partner, and dept. chair and professor at Northwestern University. “It draws a cross section of researchers from law, economics, and engineering and provides a very dynamic forum for discussions on policy related topics.” Read the story and find links to the papers here: https://lnkd.in/gqGCk5JN

Most of the research conducted in universities is in the mainstream. However, it is crucial to have at least one group in every department dedicated to conducting off-stream research. This type of research delves into fundamental questions and novel phenomena that may not yield immediate practical benefits, but play a crucial role in advancing our understanding of the universe. Off-stream research often leads to groundbreaking discoveries that can revolutionize entire fields of science and technology, ensuring a continuous flow of innovative ideas and methodologies. Let's foster an environment where curiosity-driven science thrives, maintaining the vitality and diversity of the scientific enterprise.

ONLINE Workshop: Science Communication & Public Engagement November 14, 2023 | 0900 - 1500 📣 Attention doctoral researchers & Postdocs from all UNIC universities and across all research fields! UNIC4ER's "Open Science Autumn" continues at Ruhr University Bochum with a special workshop on making your research understandable outside the research community. "Could my research be interesting or perhaps even useful to people in society, business or politics?" This workshop led by Dr. Annette Klinkert will give an answer by introducing science communication and public engagement as collaborative ways to transfer research knowledge to society and to engage members of the public with the design, conduct and dissemination of research. 📚 You will discuss possible aims and purposes to publicly engage with research and will uncover strategies and ways to share your research with a broader non-research community. Sign up here: https://lnkd.in/eC76qfmQ #EngagedResearch #UNIC4ER #OpenScience

In November 2023, I started my PhD in Social Informatics at Mid Sweden University. This academic pursuit marks the initiation of my in-depth exploration and research in the evolving area of social informatics.

The results will be shared and used by Leiden University’s #AcademiaInMotion programme and the #OpenScienceCommunityLeiden to improve Open Science services and resources for university employees. 🌟 Together we can help Leiden University create a more open future! #OpenScience #Transparency #Collaboration

❗ DEADLINE ALERT ❗  for all Postdocs in the Max Planck Society! 📢 you only have until this Sunday (18th August) to participate in your 2024 General Survey! Take the opportunity to give your input on working conditions in our Institutes! 🗳️   To participate: search your Institute E-Mail inbox for our message with the subject "Personal Invitation Link to participate in the Official 2024 PostdocNet General Survey." Please see that email for a detailed explanation of the goals of the Survey and your personalised link to the Survey (no link sharing, please! If you should have gotten a link and don’t have one, click here to request one: https://lnkd.in/e8ViQyFS). And remember: your institute's anonymous results will be sent to your External Postdoc Representative IF your institute responds enough to this survey – so please encourage your colleagues to participate so that your postdoctoral community can benefit from these results.   Wondering if you are eligible to participate?   Well, there is no technical definition of what a postdoc is in Germany, the Max Planck PostdocNet identifies a postdoc as someone who:  - is scientific staff (in department, lab or group); - has a doctoral degree; - is employed on a time-limited contact (not tenure or indefinite); and, - has not yet established a significant level of independence (e.g. not group leaders or W-level employment).   Questions? Get in touch with the PostdocNet Steering Group or the Survey Group: survey@postdocnet.mpg.de steering@postdocnet.mpg.de   For more information about this survey and to see past survey results, please see our website.   #maxplancksociety #MPGpostdocnetgeneralsurvey2024 #haveyoursay #maxplanckpostdocs #maxplanckinstitute #postdocseurope #mpg #maxplanckpostdoc #maxplanck
