At the core of this release is a completely retrained and substantially larger model. Trained on a massive collection of scholarly metadata from the Semantic Scholar dataset encompassing nearly 100 million papers up to 2025.

Are there any examples where it is defensible to combine observational and randomised data in a metaanalysis? #stats #metascience

New blog posts: "Preparing for scientific deepfakes"

blog.khinsen.net/posts/2026/0...

"What I haven't seen yet, but expect to see soon, is the scientific equivalent of deepfakes: made-up results that come with made-up code that reproduces them."

🧪 #metascience

Every reproducibility reform follows the same arc: genuine crisis → institutional support → compliance theatre.
Not sabotage. A hundred small accommodations.
New preprint on governing against that drift.

Let’s build a foundation for science that actually sounds right. 🎵🔬 #OpenScience #Holochain #Metascience #ValiChord [5/5]

70% of researchers have failed to reproduce another scientist’s experiments. It’s a $200B global crisis of trust. 📉

I’m a music teacher, not a scientist—but I’ve spent the last year building a new "immune system" for research integrity.

Meet ValiChord. 🧵 [1/5] #OpenScience #Metascience

Research collaborations often start out vague, and participants may have different expectations about issues like workload, authorship, publication form, and open science. We are developing a toolkit where project initiators can state how they foresee the collaboration, and potential […]

Confused why people argue that agentic AI is good for academia. It seems the arguments revolve around time savings and more papers produced quicker but ignores the impact this will have on peer review and an already overburdened system. Not to mention just more slop

Following up for this, I've written a longer piece for the new @RoRInstitute #Metascience substack

The Program Committee welcomes submissions on all topics in the science of science and innovation, broadly defined. We invite contributions from researchers and practitioners across all disciplines, sectors, and world regions, with a particular encouragement for early-career scholars. Major conference themes include, but are not limited to: AI, agentic science, and new epistemic practices in scientific discovery Global knowledge dynamics and the evolution of scientific fields Government-industry-academia partnerships and innovation systems Societal impacts and public value of science and innovation Science funding in an interconnected, multi-sectoral, and global environment Social stratification, bias, and ethical issues in scientific production and reward Open science, transparency, and reproducibility in research The scientific workforce, precarity, and the trajectory of research careers Theoretical, historical, and conceptual perspectives on science and innovation Causal inference and methodological advances in the science of science and innovation Science communication, public trust, and the governance of emerging technologies Intellectual property, patents, and the geography of technological change

📣 Call for abstracts at #ICSSI2026
⛰️ in Boulder, CO, USA - June 29 to July 1

Is #AI turning grant evaluation into a lottery? 🎲

The 2025 generative AI improvement coincides with ~20% of proposals scoring >95% in EU #MSCA call.

We’ve reached "excellence saturation."

Time to rethink funding?

Devezer's Urn LLMs make metascience easier, but that doesn't increase metascientific validity.

Very powerful article from @beenwrekt.bsky.social, thanks @nicholdav.bsky.social for sharing the article
"The hardcore statistical wing of #metascience has strong, peculiar normative beliefs about what #science should be."

I built a free tool for researchers to check if their code repository is ready for someone else to reproduce.
