"For two decades, “social media” has been the master lens through which scholars have understood digital communication—an era defined by user-generated content, networked publics, and participatory culture. That era is drawing to a close." https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/6nue7_v1 #SocialMedia #research

Farmers, scientists aim to manage risks of nitrogen fertilizer Researchers at the University of Regina and the University of Saskatchewan tested the urea fertilizer, which helps feed two-thirds of the global population. After adding it to farm ponds, they found the product degraded water quality and is a widespread threat to freshwater sources. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/farmers-scientists-aim-to-manage-risks-of-nitrogen-fertilizer-9.7170658?cmp=rss

This week, I had the opportunity to stay 2 nights at the Pic du Midi #Observatory, in the french Pyrénées. I captured some #timelapse from this site, which is still magical. I was astonished by the dynamism of this observatory: new domes, new #instruments, new projects and new buildings. #Research in #astronomy in the metropolitan #France is performing like a charm. I fully support its application to the @unesco@mastodon.social ! #Nightphotography #Photography #Landscape #Sunset #Astrophotography #Space #Sky #Night #video #PicDuMidi #Science

"As well as revealing the extent of the [clitoral] nerves that are crucial to orgasms, the work shows that some of what medics are learning about the anatomy of the clitoris is wrong, and could help prevent women who have pelvic operations from ending up with poorer sexual function." https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/mar/29/full-network-clitoral-nerves-mapped-out-first-time-women-pelvic-surgery #healthcare #biomedical #research #women #WomensHealth #SexualHealth

Scammy research publishers. It is all about the money these days. I hope people can afford to sue them. "In a 2024 article in the Journal of Scholarly Publishing, Graham Kendall, the deputy vice chancellor at MILA University in Nilai, Malaysia, detailed possible connections between Walsh Medical Media and the publishing group OMICS. In 2019, OMICS was ordered to pay the U.S. government $50 million in 2019 for “unfair and deceptive practices.” " https://retractionwatch.com/2026/03/05/publisher-demands-500-from-impersonated-author-to-retract-paper/ #RetractionWatch #Research
