petersuberUpdate. "ALLEA Statement on Threats to Academic Freedom and International Research Collaboration in the United States" <a href="https://allea.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/ALLEA-Statement-on-Threats-to-Academic-Freedom.pdf" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://allea.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/ALLEA-Statement-on-Threats-to-Academic-Freedom.pdf</a>"The European Federation of Academies of Sciences and Humanities expresses grave concern over the escalating threats to academic freedom, both in the United States and beyond. Recent developments regarding science and scholarship in the U.S., including executive orders freezing billions in federal research funding and censorship around topics such as climate change and gender, are forcing many U.S. science agencies and research organisations to abruptly suspend normal operations. Such censorship and political suppression of language, research topics, and methodologies—whether through funding restrictions, legislative control, or institutional interference—fundamentally compromise the integrity of scientific and scholarly endeavours not just in the U.S. but around the world due to the global nature of the research ecosystem." <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/AcademicFreedom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AcademicFreedom</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ALLEA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ALLEA</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Censorship" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Censorship</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Collaboration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Collaboration</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/DefendResearch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DefendResearch</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Takedowns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Takedowns</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trump</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USPol</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USPolitics</a>

petersuberHere's a good article on the <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ALLEA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ALLEA</a> recommendations (above). <a href="https://sciencebusiness.net/news/european-academies-hit-out-high-author-charges-open-access-publishing" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://sciencebusiness.net/news/european-academies-hit-out-high-author-charges-open-access-publishing</a>Quoting Bernt Hugenholtz: "These publishers basically disseminate content that is either completely ready for publication or near-ready for publication…We are moving in the right direction with <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/openaccess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#openaccess</a> but we have to solve this remuneration problem or, more radically, abandon cooperation with publishers if they are going to keep asking such outrageous publication fees.”<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/APCs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#APCs</a>
