Hoeveel wetenschappelijke publicaties hebben Nederlandse universiteiten gepubliceerd in 2025? In deze datapublicatie delen we de cijfers van de publicatie-output per Nederlandse universiteit.
Are our universities still fit for purpose? While academia struggles to meet expectations in times of rapid political and technological change, the “ivory tower” critique sadly still hits home. Also internally, universities are under immense strain: the publication model is cracking, the academic funding landscape has become a rat race that leads to more losers than winners, and systemic inequalities profoundly restrict access to higher education. Fixing Academia (VU University Press) is a t...

source: Horizons Both basic and applied research suffer from an overpromising rhetoric, says the integrity researcher and psychiatrist Joeri Tijdink. Here is his critique of science jargon. Joeri Tijdink, 03/09/2026 It’s very rare for a ‘blockbuster’ drug to be developed. This is why we should change the general expectations of research and the way we communicate it, says Joeri Tijdink, who’s exploring research culture and research quality. | Photo: Philotheus Nisch Science is drowning in sup...
The European Commission has published an independent expert study that provides an evidence‑informed baseline assessment of progress in reforming research assessment under the Agreement on Reforming Research Assessment (ARRA). It examines the progress as implemented by the organisations that signed the ARRA, the vast majority of whom are members of the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment (CoARA). Drawing on qualitative and quantitative evidence, the report examines how ARRA commitmen...
Diversifying dynamic academic career paths is one of the focal points of the Recognition & Rewards programme. We want academics to be able to develop in those areas where their talents lie and make their mark in one or more core domains, keeping in mind that their profile may change in the course of their career. The roadmap Room for Everyone’s Talent in Practice states that by 2023, all institutions will create career and development paths for assistant professors, associate professors and f...

Dear all, I’d love to share all the files for the visualisation that illustrates the cultural shift towards Recognition & Appreciation. The visualisation shows where we’ve come from, where we are now, and where we’re moving towards. We’re very excited about the result, precisely because it attempts to illustrate what this movement is essentially about in an accessible and recognisable way. That’s why we’d like to ask you to share the visuals as widely as possible – with your colleagues, on ...
People and culture are fundamental to research and innovation because they drive the creative and dynamic system that we need to support the community to thrive. Positive cultures support not just researchers and innovators but also the entire ecosystem which supports the research and innovation endeavour. We strive to foster a system where everyone is appreciated and valued, that works for everyone, by everyone. The role of UKRI UKRI is uniquely positioned to catalyse efforts to improve cult...
Dutch Not everyone is capable of providing inspiring academic teaching. An increasing number of Dutch institutions are now offering professorships to academics who distinguish themselves through their teaching skills. To further strengthen this process of recognition and rewards, an educational collective has been established at VU University Amsterdam. Members Yvette Taminiau and Elza van Deel are very enthusiastic and explain the initiative. What is an educational collective and what does i...
Nederlands A system can only offer safety if human vulnerability is given a place at the table, argues bestselling author and professor of social work Brené Brown in her paperback Dare to Lead: Brave Work. Tough Conversations. Whole Hearts. And: clarity is kind, ambiguity is unkind. A similar undertone emerges in a conversation with academic Kenny Meesters, which we held in connection with Tilburg University’s video series ‘The Career Path’*. We delve deeper into the question: when do you fe...
Source: INSEAD (text LinkedIn post Robert Durr/AI) Do academic researchers perform better in more aggressive, masculine hyper-competitive cultures? No, in such environments they have: lower publication rates, lower citation impact, lower employee well-being, higher turnover intentions. This is shown in a new paper by Maria Guadalupe, Daisy Pollenne, and Kaisa Snellman, using unique survey and archival data across leading European business schools. The negative associations hold for both me...

NWO stelt per maart 2026 nieuwe beleidsdoelen voor een gezonde onderzoekscultuur vast. Daarmee concretiseert NWO de ambities uit haar huidige strategie ‘Wetenschap werkt!’, waarin een gezonde onderzoekscultuur één van de vier bouwstenen is van een sterk en veerkrachtig wetenschaps- en innovatiesysteem. Met deze doelen onderstreept NWO dat werken aan een gezonde onderzoekscultuur geen eenmalige opgave is, maar een voortdurende verantwoordelijkheid. NWO baseert haar beleid voor een gezonde onde...
English Een systeem kan alleen veiligheid bieden als menselijk ongemak een plaats aan tafel krijgt, poneert bestsellerauteur en hoogleraar maatschappelijk werk Brené Brown in haar pocket ‘Durf te leiden’. En: duidelijkheid is vriendelijk, onduidelijkheid onvriendelijk. Een soortgelijke ondertoon klinkt in een gesprek met academicus Kenny Meesters, dat we voeren naar aanleiding van de videoserie Het Loopbaanpad van Tilburg University*. We gaan dieper in op de vraag: wanneer voel jij je in je ...
English Academisch inspirerend onderwijs geven kan niet iedereen. Steeds meer Nederlandse instellingen bieden ook hoogleraarschap aan voor wetenschappers die wél uitblinken dankzij hun didactische kwaliteiten. Om dit proces van erkenning en waardering verder te verstevigen, is aan de VU een onderwijscollectief opgericht. Leden Yvette Taminiau en Elza van Deel zijn enthousiast en lichten toe. Tekst interview: @claartjechajes Wat is en wat doet een onderwijscollectief? Elza van Deel: ‘Het is e...
