Presented research at NYU Psych yesterday and want to credit them for restoring academic engagement. Packed room of 50+, more questions than time, challenging/collegial discussions. No blank zoom screens. Huge faculty + student turnout. We should follow the lead from @jayvanbavel.bsky.social et al.

If you have found value in the large-scale studies we carried out through global collaborations in recent years, we will soon share something on a whole new level. A true testament of dedication to scientific rigor from everyone involved - authors, editor, peer reviewers - for the good of society.
