Abinash Sahoo<p>We ran a Reddit survey, and the results are shocking:</p><p>publishing scientific papers is prohibitively expensive.</p><p>💸 $3K – $7.5K for open access in reputable journals</p><p>🔥 Top journals (e.g., Nature) charge $9K+</p><p>🚫 Even mid-tier journals cost $2K – $4K</p><p>PhD students rely on lab grants, while independents pay out of pocket. </p><p>📚 Science is becoming pay-to-publish, blocking access to knowledge.</p><p>We need decentralized, affordable publishing.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/DeSci" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DeSci</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/funding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>funding</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/publishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>publishing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/research" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>research</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>academia</span></a></p>
MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History March 24, 1919: Poet and activist Lawrence Ferlinghetti was born. Ferlinghetti is most well-known for his book of poetry, “A Coney Island of the Mind” (1958) and for cofounding City Lights bookstore and publishing, in San Francisco. The authorities arrested him for publishing Allen Ginsberg’s “Howl” because they deemed it obscene. However, a jury acquitted him in 1957. Politically, Ferlinghetti considered himself an anarchist. His politics were influenced by Anarchist poet and IWW member Kenneth Rexroth.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/anarchism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>anarchism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IWW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IWW</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/beatniks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>beatniks</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ferlinghetti" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ferlinghetti</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/obscenity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>obscenity</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CityLights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CityLights</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/publishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>publishing</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/poetry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>poetry</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstadon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>bookstadon</span></a></span></p>
Abinash Sahoo<p>While I am reading an article about DeSci on medium, I found something interesting.</p><p>📉 Young scientists are being left behind.</p><p>In 1980, 20% of NIH grants went to researchers 35 &amp; younger. By 2014? Just 1%.</p><p>Meanwhile, funding for 66+ scientists keeps rising.</p><p>I'm not saying it's a bad thing but without support, young innovators leave science—taking their fresh ideas with them.</p><p>We’re losing the next generation. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/FundYoungScientists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FundYoungScientists</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>science</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/publishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>publishing</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>academia</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/DeSci" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DeSci</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/research" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>research</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.world/tags/phdlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>phdlife</span></a></p>
