Dissertation chapter finally published! @MishaTeplitskiy @DanielMRomero @agnes. We show that men play the research game much harder than women. It speaks to the phrase "buzz men, warm women". The downside is that savvy players are harder to unplug from the game.
Men are much more likely to self-promote their papers on Twitter/X than women

New research from @sophiehsqq @haoopeng @UzziLeadership and colleagues suggests there is an association between promotional language and biomedical grant funding success.
11 Dec 2024
The use of promotional language in biomedical grant applications is associated with increased funding success; gender, age, and grant amount explained most of the variation in the use of promotional language. ja.ma/3Vzqdbr

Studies like this mostly compare fraction of faculties to US population. I bet the finding might be different if using the fraction of authors as baseline -- a lay person working in service industry is unlikely to become PI in the first place. People's choice matters.
First use of large-scale promotion & tenure voting data I'm aware of

Innovation really involves two processes: ideation & communication. Our paper finds that promotional words can help to show the merits of good ideas in funding. Scientists need to pay more attention to the communication process to drive innovation success: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.23…

How are the merits of innovative ideas communicated in science? New research in @PNASNews analyzes the relationship between promotional language and the probability of funding, innovativeness, and citation impact. w/ @haoopeng @sophiehsqq & Henrik B Fosse pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.23…

👀ICYMI: @haoopeng @MishaTeplitskiy & @david__jurgens show researchers with non-Anglo names are more likely to not be directly named in news stories and have their names replaced with those of their institutions.

Why would name mentions matter? While, it does for us, at least in EB1A visa application.
Nice piece by @haoopeng in TheConversation about our recent work on biases in media coverage of scientists

Scientists with East Asian, African names less likely to be mentioned in news stories referencing their work: says study led by @haoopeng at @NorthwesternU
(study authors note methods of identifying name origins likely led to some classification errors).

🚨 Is novel research worth doing?🚨
There are serious concerns about slowdown in innovation. Are institutions to blame? In science, does peer review discourage novel work?
Paper with @haoopeng @mrblasco and
@klakhani finds the opposite!

"This is striking as we also find that retracted papers are pervasive across mediums, receiving more attention after publication than nonretracted papers even on curated platforms..." A study in @PNASNews using the Retraction Watch Database. pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pn…

"Overall, this analysis suggests that Twitter readily hosts critical discussion of problematic papers well before they get retracted. These discussions credit voices that are actively helping to improve science-related discussions in digital media." pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pn…
