Discussion panel with international experts at SISSA on the evaluation of research | 21 March 10 am

[Infopoint]

*The changing nature of science in the XXI Century*
21 March 2018, 10 am
SISSA, Via Bonomea 265, Trieste | Room 128-129 (1st floor)

On October 27th 2017 three national academies (Academie des Sciences, 
Leopoldina and the Royal Society) issued a Statement on good practice in 
the evaluation of researchers and research programmes. It is widely 
agreed that the nature of knowledge production in contemporary societies 
is changing, due especially to the so called phenomenon of marketisation 
in universities and other public organisations which has produced flawed 
metrics for the evaluation of Science.
Stemming from these critical issues, SISSA will be holding a public 
event to push the discussion further within the activities of the SISSA 
Master's Course in Science Communication "Franco Prattico".

It will be an occasion for a public consultation on these changes and 
the implications they are having for the relationship between science 
and democracy, between science and industry and for the practice of 
science communication.

A full programme of the event is attached. All are invited.
