Young Researchers Network - Maastricht

Routebeschrijving

Young Researchers Network - Maastricht In early 2013 we decided a change of pace was needed to keep up with the ever changing condition of young researchers within Dutch Universities.

This is reflected by the change of our 13 years old, and in our renovated mission. In 1988, several PhD candidates from Maastricht University decided to organize themselves in an association. Between the beginning of 2000 and 2013, this association went by the name of ProVUM (Promovendi Vereniging Universiteit Maastricht). Becoming the "Young Researchers Network - Maastricht", we have abandoned the Institutional representation, which had become largely irrelevant, and we are now focusing on facilitation of networking and knowledge sharing among young researchers, to promote excellence and support early career researchers within and around the University of Maastricht

University whistleblowers who have reported professional malpractice have found themselves bullied and isolated, with no support from colleagues or management.

The process can drag on for years. Often, whistleblowers leave. A new university, a new job, early retirement on grounds of ill health — anything to escape an impossible situation.

That is why stronger protections — and a culture that protects rather than punishes those who speak up — are so important.

Misconduct allegations involving senior academics must be investigated by independent experts, rather than by the universities that employ those academics.

The Braak Paradox: When Parkinson’s pathology and clinical progression disconnect. For more than two decades, the Braak hypothesis has shaped how we think about Parkinson’s disease, suggesting that abnormal alpha-synuclein pathology spreads through the brain in a predictable sequence as the dise...

The scan showed brain activity, In a dead fish. Now, the recent study proved that the exact same thing is happening in artificial intelli...

Last night, OpenAI released 722 mathematical manuscripts organized into 372 result families, produced by an unreleased internal model. I am still trying to understand what is in there, and verification is ongoing. But I think we need to start talking about something besides which conjectures were so...

Every clinical paper should publish its Hessian. A regression table is a lossy compression of a fitted model. We fit a Cox model on hundreds of patients, then publish a hazard ratio and a confidence interval, and everything else the model learned gets deleted. Along with the coefficients, papers sho...
