Trump's gold standard science is harming US science and health
On 29 May 2026, the US White House's Office of Management and Budget (OMB) proposed a rule that directs political appointees to require adherence with “gold standard science” in the awarding of federal grants, including research grants funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation.1 This process, if finalised, would permit political appointees - officials placed in senior leadership or policy roles through a political appointment process, such as the...

The Rising Dominance of Methods Across Science
Announce Type: new Abstract: Scientific progress is traditionally narrated through the interplay of theoretical insights and experimental findings. Yet this view of science underplays a third and central pillar of progress: the methods that underlie both conceptual advances and empirical evidence. By analysing more than 3 million articles across science published between 1980 and 2019, we find that science has undergone a fundamental structural transition.
MatSciBench: Benchmarking the Reasoning Ability of Large Language Models in Materials Science
Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Language Models have shown strong scientific reasoning ability, but their performance on materials science problems remains less studied. To fill this gap, we introduce MatSciBench, a comprehensive college-level benchmark comprising 1340 problems that span the essential subdisciplines of materials science. MatSciBench features a structured and fine-grained taxonomy that categorizes materials science questions into 6 primary fields and 31 subfields,...
Changing topic bias in biomedical science maps by linking documents through alternative data sources: policy documents, patents, authors, Facebook, and Twitter
arXiv:2412.07550v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Traditional science maps visualize topics by clustering documents within a network, but they are inherently biased toward clustering certain topics over others. If these topics could be chosen, then the science maps could be tailored for different needs. In this paper, we explore the extent to which the topic bias of a science map can be changed by choosing different data sources to build the document network.
AgentDS Technical Report: Benchmarking the Future of Human-AI Collaboration in Domain-Specific Data Science
arXiv:2603.19005v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Data science plays a critical role in transforming complex data into actionable insights across numerous domains. Recent developments in large language models (LLMs) and artificial intelligence (AI) agents have significantly automated data science workflow. However, it remains unclear to what extent AI agents can match the performance of human experts on domain-specific data science tasks, and in which aspects human expertise continues to...

A Double Bind: Gendered Funding, Research Topics, and Academic Performance in the Social Sciences
arXiv:2606.03742v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While female representation in social sciences is increasing, systemic gender disparities may persist in research funding and academic performance. Some argue that female scholars now receive equal opportunities, yet evidence suggests that gender imbalances remain, particularly in specific research areas. This study examines 12,945 National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded principal investigators in social sciences from 2000 to 2019 to...
