$12,000 to publish an open-access paper. It is a joke, scientists do the experiments, write, send it for review to other scientist & they do it for free. But the #publication house will make money & have the copyrights.

Is this a joke? $12,000 to make a paper open access that we submit & review for free?? Even in industry research I can’t justify such a cost.
It’s the price of

-1 year rent for room in NYC
-5 cars
-10 laptops
-1/3rd annual PhD student salary
-1/2 annual nyc min wage

Outrageous. https://t.co/bZ11xKHqoX

A lot of research funding is allocated through competitive peer review of project proposals. It is claimed that this system is efficient, and selects the best and the most innovative science. In fact, it is highly inefficient, and it hampers innovation. (2/16)

When you're searching for a job outside academia, or even just thinking about doing that, sometimes you need to *not* talk to the academics in your life. That doesn't mean you won't ever talk to them again! Just maybe right now they aren't who you need to be in conversation with.
