I just published: We still publish one paper at a time. Nobody reads science that way anymore
Publishing is stuck in one mode. Reading has already changed.

Adoptée par plus de 24 000 médecins français en 6 mois, Vera Health connaît une courbe de croissance au sein du corps médical plus rapide que celle de Doctolib à ses débuts. Grâce à un moteur de recherche s’appuyant sur 60 millions de documents scientifiques, l’IA délivre en quelques secondes une réponse fiable, sourcée et surlignée dans la littérature officielle. Capable de s’adapter au temps de réponse d’un urgentiste comme à la lecture d’un long rapport d’oncologie, l’application permet aussi aux hôpitaux d’y croiser leurs propres protocoles internes.

R. David Lankes just wrote the post I wish I'd written. It really resonates, particularly this statement:
"So again, if you’re feeling off-balance about the rapid rise of generative AI, it’s not a personal failing. It is a shock, and shocks are conditions a field works through over time. This one is ours to work through, and to shape. "
If you're in the LIS field, go and read it. If you're not, go read it anyway. It won't take more than a couple of minutes. Really curious to hear your thoughts.

Content curation and Knowledge Management
Content curation is a core pillar of knowledge management that focuses on selecting, filtering, and organizing valuable information rather than creating it from scratch. It helps teams fight information overload by turning raw data into clear, trusted, and easy-to-find insights. [ 1, 2, 3] Key Steps in Content Curation - Collect: Gather useful facts, documents, and news from inside and outside your group.
- Filter: Check items for truth, value, and current use so only the best remain.
- Organize: Use tags, clear groups, and simple labels to make files easy to find.
- Share: Send the right facts to the right people through feeds, notes, or hubs. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
- Saves Time: People spend less time searching for answers.
- Builds Trust: Clear, expert review removes old or false data.
- Stops Clutter: Keeps shared spaces clean and focused on key goals. [1, 2, 3, 4]
If you want, tell me: - Are you curating for a team workspace or a public blog?
- What kind of tools or software are you using right now?

A GLIMPSE INTO THE MINDSET: "THE CHINESE ARE SO HARDWORKING!"
*In this series, I share common Chinese sayings that reveal how Chinese people think about work, business, risk, relationships, and authority. Because behind every phrase is a worldview and logic that shapes how China operates today.
⸻ 吃得苦中苦,方为人上人 chī dé kǔ zhōng kǔ, fāng wéi rén shàng rén "To endure the bitterest of the bitter, to become a person above others." ⸻
My mother said this line to me all through my childhood.
When I complained that homework was too hard. When I complained that life was unfair. And - without fail - when she cooked a dish of bittergourd for dinner and told me to finish it.
I hated bittergourd. That was rather the point.
It took me years to appreciate the message. Bittergourd - 苦瓜 - is bitter melon. And to endure hardship in Chinese is 吃苦: to eat bitterness. She wasn't only reciting a proverb over my schoolwork. She was making me practise it, one mouthful at a time, before life served me the harder version.
⸻ Ask almost anyone, anywhere, and they will tell you the Chinese are hardworking.
It is one of the most widely held impressions of a people on earth. But the West tends to read it as a trait - something in the culture, the genes, the water. As if it was how the Chinese are wired.
It isn't a trait. It is a value. In the Chinese mindset, the ability to eat bitterness is a badge of honour. Not a burden to be endured quietly, but a source of pride to be worn openly.
我能吃苦 - "I can eat bitterness" - is not a complaint. It is a claim to character. It is one of the most commonly offered descriptions of themselves by candidates at job interviews.
The badge is worn now - before any success arrives, and often when it never does. It is attached to the climb, not to the peak. You are already honourable by virtue of how much you can endure. Whether you ever reach the top is a separate question.
The factory worker on his 12th hour. The student on her 5th all-nighter. The migrant who hasn't seen his children in a year. Each holds, right now, a quiet sense of honour, because they can carry what others cannot.
This is a genuine strength, and worth understanding properly.
It produces people who do not quit when the returns haven't shown up - who push through the long, unrewarded middle where most others stop. Because in some self torturing way, they actually take pride in it.
It is also, in large part, what the world is actually pointing at when it calls the Chinese hardworking.
Bring China Decoded™ to your leadership team.

🇨🇳 Pourquoi en Chine 老 (lǎo) ne signifie pas toujours « vieux ».
Lorsque mes élèves commencent à apprendre le chinois, ils retiennent rapidement que : 老 = vieux. Jusqu'au jour où ils rencontrent ces mots : 老师 (lǎoshī) → professeur 老板 (lǎobǎn) → patron 老王 (Lǎo Wáng) → « Wang » Et là, une question revient toujours : « Pourquoi les Chinois appellent-ils leur professeur ou leur patron "vieux" ? » La réponse est simple. Parce que 老 ne parle pas toujours de l'âge.
1️⃣ 老师 (lǎoshī) 老师 signifie professeur. Pourtant, aucun Chinois ne pense : « Voilà un vieux professeur. » Ici, 老 exprime l'idée d'une personne expérimentée, digne de respect, qui transmet son savoir.
2️⃣ 老板 (lǎobǎn) Si vous entrez dans un restaurant en Chine, vous entendrez souvent : 老板! Ce n'est pas une façon de dire : « Hé, le vieux ! » C'est simplement : « Patron ! » ou « Monsieur le gérant ! »
3️⃣ 老王 (Lǎo Wáng) Entre collègues ou entre amis, il est fréquent d'appeler quelqu'un : 老王(Lǎo Wáng) 老李(Lǎo Lǐ ) 老张(Lǎo Zhāng) Même si cette personne n'a que 30 ou 40 ans. Pourquoi ? Parce que 老 peut aussi exprimer la proximité, l'affection ou la familiarité. C'est un peu comme un surnom.
4️⃣ 老朋友 (lǎo péngyou) Voici un autre exemple intéressant. 老朋友 Ce n'est pas : ❌ « un vieil ami » mais plutôt : ✅ un ami de longue date Le mot 老 met ici l'accent sur la durée de la relation.
5️⃣ 老客户 (lǎo kèhù) En entreprise, on parle souvent de : 老客户 Il ne s'agit évidemment pas de clients âgés. Cela signifie : des clients fidèles ou des clients de longue date.
6️⃣ 老地方 (lǎo dìfang) Si un ami chinois vous dit : 老地方见! Il ne veut pas dire : « Retrouvons-nous dans un endroit vieux. » Mais plutôt : Retrouvons-nous à notre endroit habituel.
Alors, que signifie vraiment 老 ? Selon le contexte, 老 peut exprimer : ✔️ le respect ✔️ l'expérience ✔️ l'ancienneté ✔️ la proximité ✔️ la fidélité ✔️ l'habitude Autrement dit, 老 ne décrit pas seulement l'âge d'une personne ou d'une chose. Il évoque souvent une relation construite dans le temps. C'est une belle illustration d'une différence culturelle. En français, le mot « vieux » renvoie presque toujours à l'âge. En chinois, 老 peut aussi évoquer ce qui est familier, établi, expérimenté ou digne de confiance. Une simple traduction ne suffit donc pas. Car apprendre une langue, ce n'est pas seulement apprendre des mots. C'est apprendre la manière dont une culture donne du sens aux mots.
💬 Et vous ? Connaissez-vous un mot dans une autre langue qui semble facile à traduire… mais dont le sens change complètement selon le contexte ?
➡️ Partager avec votre réseau ! 🙂

📢 Pharma : LinkedIn devient un canal d’influence
Au 2e trimestre 2026, les laboratoires pharmaceutiques en France utilisent LinkedIn comme un véritable média d’influence sectorielle.
C’est l’un des grands enseignements du nouveau Baromètre #BeyondTheScore du 2ème trimestre 2026 dévoilé par LauMa communication et Buzz E-santé consacré aux usages social media des laboratoires pharmaceutiques en France.
La tendance est nette : moins de posts isolés, davantage de séquences éditoriales. Moins de communication descendante, davantage d’incarnation. Moins de discours générique sur l’innovation, davantage de preuves concrètes.
Investissements industriels, accès au progrès thérapeutique, IA, production, attractivité, parcours de soins, souveraineté sanitaire : LinkedIn devient un espace où les laboratoires ne parlent plus uniquement d’eux-mêmes, mais de leur rôle dans la transformation du système de santé.
La plateforme sert toujours à recruter. Mais elle sert aussi à expliquer, rassurer, mobiliser et influencer.
C’est un changement important : LinkedIn devient un canal stratégique de réputation active.

Et si l’émancipation consistait moins à lutter « pour » la reconnaissance que « par » la reconnaissance ? Lutter « pour » la reconnaissance, c’est encore laisser à d’autres le pouvoir de dire ce qui vaut. Lutter « par » la reconnaissance, c’est reprendre ce pouvoir : reconnaître, faire circuler les reconnaissances, contester les hiérarchies et transformer les systèmes qui leur donnent valeur. Une « micro-généalogie de la reconnaissance », en passant négligemment par Nietzsche, Bourdieu, Honneth et Rancière. Ouf ! 😉

L’aspirine pour bloquer le cancer : coup de chance ou révolution scientifique ?
Pendant longtemps, les chercheurs savaient qu'une prise régulière d'aspirine réduisait le risque de métastases (notamment dans le cancer colorectal), mais le pourquoi restait un mystère. Des travaux menés notamment par l'Institut Francis Crick (publiés dans Cancer Discovery) ont levé le voile sur ce mécanisme fascinant : La « cape d'invisibilité » des cellules cancéreuses Pour voyager dans le sang et former des métastases sans se faire détruire, les cellules tumorales recrutent des plaquettes sanguines qui créent un bouclier autour d'elles. Ce bouclier sécrète des prostaglandines E2 (PGE2), des molécules qui « endorment » nos cellules immunitaires (cellules NK et lymphocytes T).
Le rôle clé de l'aspirine En inhibant l'enzyme COX-1 dans les plaquettes, l'aspirine bloque la production de PGE2. Résultat ? La « cape d'invisibilité » tombe. Le système immunitaire repère à nouveau les cellules cancéreuses circulantes et les élimine avant qu'elles ne s'implantent.
⚠️ Attention au raccourci : Cela ne signifie pas qu'il faut se ruiner en aspirine demain matin. Une consommation quotidienne non supervisée présente des risques sérieux (hémorragies digestives). Cependant, comprendre ce levier offre des pistes majeures pour la recherche en immunothérapie.
Une belle preuve que la recherche fondamentale continue de nous surprendre, parfois là où on l'attend le moins !

Most researchers have nothing on Larry Richardson. Racking up more than 130 citations in 4 years, he seemed like a scientific superstar in the making. Except the studies were gibberish—and Larry is a cat.
This “exercise in absurdity” is an eye-opening look at byzantine world of scientific rank, and just how easy it is to manipulate. https://scim.ag/46BjunC #InternationalCatDay| 12 commentaires sur LinkedIn

Citations are no longer a good measure. They are being actively gamed. Even Peer Reviews are now done to get more citations... Excellent Data story by Nature News. MA Oviedo-García has been looking at review mills for quite some time.
All peer reviews need to be made open to ensure such practices are caught and brought to light. We have proposed a pseudo anonymous open peer review system to be able to do so.

A very insightful article by Katarina Zimmer about peer-review milling was published in Nature yesterday. Read it here: https://lnkd.in/e5AgWcaR
It's fantastic to see that all the hard work by my friend and colleague MA Oviedo-García is put in the spotlight like this.
MA Oviedo-García states about review mills: “I think it could be quite a common phenomenon,” she says, “and we’re probably only just [seeing a] tiny bit of it.”
I've been very lucky to have had the ability to collaborate with MA Oviedo-García and Dorothy Bishop on the topic of peer-review milling. The paper, which is also highlighted in the news article, was published earlier this year in Accountability in Research. Read our paper here: https://lnkd.in/eXgEV_QV

How can we better integrate social sciences and ethics into Health Professions Education?
Let’s look at a piece of research in MedEdPublish that addresses this question:
📃Integration of Social Science and Ethics in the Clinical Curriculum
Social Sciences are an important part of the medical school curriculum, highlighted by the General Medical Council’s Outcomes for Graduates. However, the integration of social science in the clinical curriculum can be challenging. This article reviews the integration of social science in the clinical curriculum of a Scottish Medical School to identify gaps and opportunities.
Read the full article https://ow.ly/bt7z50ZvJIP
💬 We’d love to hear your thoughts: How do you think medical schools can better integrate social sciences and ethics into clinical training to improve patient outcomes and healthcare delivery?
