International collaborations aim to solve global environmental issues. Academic work and science-policy interfaces are instrumental in this pursuit, although scholars often overlook their significance. There is a need for fair credit distribution, transparency, and diversity in academia and policy reports. Recognizing these factors can enhance inclusivity and equity, driving solutions.

Purpose: The determination of authorship order in scientific publications is critical for researcher recognition and career progression. According to a recent survey's meta-analysis, the prevalence of Honorary Authorship reaches 20% of authors. This study evaluates the adoption and proficency of authorship guidelines in maxillofacial surgery and otolaryngology.

There are global movements aiming to promote reform of the traditional research evaluation and reward systems. However, a comprehensive picture of the existing best practices and efforts across various institutions to integrate Open Science into these frameworks remains underdeveloped and not fully known. The aim of this study was to identify perceptions and expectations of various research communities worldwide regarding how Open Science activities are (or should be) formally recognised and rewarded.

Moritz Nagel (1808-1871): A faceless name in the history of the adrenal glands.

J Med Biogr

Department of Biomedical Sciences, School of Medicine, University of Padova, Padova, Italy.

In 1836, an article was published in which the terms (cortical substance) and (medullary substance) were introduced for the first time with reference to the adrenal glands. The author was indicated as 'Dr Nagel', without any further specification. Modern scientific literature often identifies the author's name as 'N.

This paper uses a generalised stacking method to introduce a novel hybrid model that combines a one-dimensional convolutional neural network 1DCNN with extreme gradient boosting XGBoost. We compared the predictive accuracies of the proposed hybrid architecture with three conventional algorithms-1DCNN, XGBoost and logistic regression (LR) using a dataset of over twenty thousand peer-to-peer (P2P) consumer credit observations. By leveraging the SHAP algorithm, the research provides a detailed analysis of feature importance, contributing to the model's predictions and offering insights into the overall and individual significance of different features.

A framework for medical physics compensation in an academic department.

J Appl Clin Med Phys

November 2024

Department of Radiation Oncology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

Compensation is a key component of career satisfaction and professional growth. A new compensation model was developed to provide a framework for career growth and a compensation ladder for medical physicists with clinical responsibilities in an academic radiation oncology department. The goals for the new model were: (1) create a market competitive plan to support recruitment and retention of top physics talent, (2) incentivize clinical effort, innovation, citizenship/professional service, and academic achievement, (3) provide compensation growth opportunities separate from medical school promotions, and (4) create consistent, transparent, and fair metrics applicable to all clinical physicists in the department.
