SUMMARY:IBEC PhD Discussions Complementary Skills Session: #LancetGate and its broader implications for the pandemic response and science dissemination 
DESCRIPTION:#LancetGate and its broader implications for the pandemic response and science dissemination\nCarlos Chaccour\, ISGlobal\, Hospital Clínic\, Universitat de Barcelona \nOn May 22\, 2020\, the Lancet published an influential report on the use of hydroxychloroquine in COVID conducted using a vast database owned by a company based in Chicago: Surgisphere. The world counted more than 300.000 deaths due to the Pandemic at that time. The paper had an immediate impact on more than 131 clinical trials with this molecule ongoing worldwide at the moment\, including the WHO-led SOLIDARITY trial which put its hydroxychloroquine arm on hold due to safety concerns. The main issue\, of course\, is that the data was fraudulent. Hydroxychloroquine would finally be discarded as a potential treatment after failing randomized clinical trials. But the broader impact of the surgisphere “database” exceeded hydroxychloroquine and shaped the pandemic response in several latinamerican countries. In this talk we will review the story of what is now known as the #LancetGate scandal. \n\nCarlos Chaccour a results-oriented global health researcher that finds joy in looking at challenges from different angles. He is interested in the whole spectrum of problem solving\, from discovery to scale-up and believes that open-minded multidisciplinary teams are key to innovation. Carlos thinks that scientists should be well versed on the complexities of policy\, funding and implementation if they are to come up with sustainable solutions. He currently focuses on malaria but enjoys the full spectrum of global health.

SUMMARY:IBEC PhD Discussions Complementary Skills Session: Some philosophical & sociological issues about present science: from the privatization of science to the production of ignorance
DESCRIPTION:Some philosophical & sociological issues about present science: from the privatization of science to the production of ignorance\nEduard Aibar – Professor of Science and Technology Studies at the Arts & Humanities Department\, Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) \nThis seminar will present some basic points of the recent view of science produced by fields like the philosophy of science\, the sociology of science and the history of science. We will highlight the strong contrast between this view and the traditional view of science – still dominant in many areas of society – particularly around matters like the scientific method\, the evolution of science and the role of controversies. We will also discuss a few important phenomena of contemporary science: the productivist view of research evaluation\, the privatization of scientific knowledge and\, finally\, agnotology – the systematic production of ignorance. \nEduard Aibar is professor of Science and Technology Studies at the Arts & Humanities Department\, Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC). He has been the director of the Internet Interdisciplinary Institute and former vice-president for research at UOC. He is currently leading a research group on Open Science and Innovation. His research has focused on the interaction between scientific and technological development and organizational and social change in areas such as eGovernment\, town planning and the Internet. He has recently led two research projects on Wikipedia and the public communication of science. \nFor more info see: https://www.uoc.edu/webs/eaibar

SUMMARY:PhD Discussions Complementary Skills Session: Scientists and popularisers: challenge and responsibility
DESCRIPTION:Scientists and popularisers: challenge and responsibility\n \nDavid Bueno\, Departament de Genètica · Facultat de Biologia\, UB\nScience has become central to human life\, not just for developing new products and applications and for understanding the world\, but also as a transforming element for society and human thinking. Science is everywhere\, and often\, social organisations have to take decisions based on scientific research or with scientific implications. Moreover\, some science applications involve ethical issues\, which have to be addressed within communities. In this context\, communicating and popularizing science is a prerequisite for strengthening and deepening democratic mechanisms\, as it may strengthen the social participation of citizens with the appropriate scientific knowledge to participate in collective decisions\, with equal rights and responsibilities. In this talk\, the challenge and responsibility of scientists to contribute to science communication and popularisation will be addressed\, as well as the main principles ruling science popularisation.
