- 🌊 This February, researchers set out into the Greenland Sea aboard the Norwegian icebreaker RV Kronprins Haakon. As part of his #FRONTIERSResidency, Tim Kalvelage joined the expedition. 🔗 Read his latest article for @nature.com: www.nature.com/articles/d41... #AMOC #ClimateChange #Arctic
- Is the #AMOC nearing collapse? In February, I joined researchers from @bjerknes.uib.no on the icebreaker Kronprins Haakon to the Greenland Sea. My text and images about their encounters during #Arctic winter and the future of the AMOC: www.nature.com/articles/d41... @frontiersmedia.bsky.social
- 🌟 Thanks to Núria Saladié and Gema Revuelta, from the Studies Centre on Science, Communication and Society at UPF, for sharing the insights from the #FRONTIERS training for science journalists at #PCST2025! 👉 @ccsupf.bsky.social
- Núria Saladié and Gema Revuelta presented #AI training for science journalists from the FRONTIERS project (@frontiersmedia.bsky.social) at the #PCST2025 conference in Aberdeen. Learn more here: frontiers.media
- It was interesting to witness how the K2-18b case was received among astronomers. Clearly it was negative. With a possible sign for life you need to be very careful. Also funny to see that it's not always the media that blows things up, but also 'top' scientists and their university PR divisions.
- K2-18b is the name of an exoplanet that got quite some media attention recently, due to 'evidence' of a so-called bio-signature. But not really: standaard.be/natuur-en-wetenscha… #takeover
- So it's my turn to #takeover the @frontiersmedia.bsky.social account this week. Based at Leiden Observatory, I'm diving into exoplanet research. The obvious question is: how unique is planet Earth? And if not so, where are these "planet B's", and how can we find them? Stay tuned for some insights.
- 📢 Tomorrow, #FRONTIERSfellow Senne Stackx is taking over our account for a week! 🌌Senne will be sharing insights from his residency at the Leiden Observatory, where he’s reporting on exoplanet research. Stay tuned! ✨ 👉 bsky.app/profile/ssta... #takeover #sciencejournalism #frontierscience

- Kicking off the #FRONTIERStraining for fellows, in Oeiras 🇵🇹, with a session on Ethics in Journalism by our partners at CESJ (@cesj.bsky.social). (1/n) #FRONTIERSfellows #sciencejournalism #frontierscience @sdrecercaupf.bsky.social @ccsupf.bsky.social
- How has the scientific publishing landscape changed in the past years? How do science journalists adapt to those changes? Gema Revuelta and #FRONTIERSfellows address these questions and discuss public perception of science, in the 2nd session of the #FRONTIERStraining. (2/n)
- Yesterday, #FRONTIERSFellows explored frontier research—unpacking its key concepts and significance within the FRONTIERS project.
- I’m ending my #FRONTIERSTakeOver with a shot from a nice tapas dinner with other fellows in Lisbon. For the next two days we will gather here for a training workshop. If you’re interested in hearing more about my residency in Copenhagen and the #EHDS make sure to follow me @tomtj.es!
- It’s a travel day for me but that doesn’t mean I can’t learn more about the datafication of healthcare. #FRONTIERSTakeOver
- In a writing clinic, I gave researchers some advice this afternoon. What do you think of my expansion of the classic man-bites-dog example? #FRONTIERSTakeOver
- On the second day of the #EHDS Forum workshop, I got introduced to a new academic format: Walk & Talk. My matching partner and I went to the nearby botanic garden and got inspiration from some older academics. #FRONTIERSTakeOver
- I had the pleasure of hosting a panel today: “European Health Data Space – Why should we care?” There was a lot of skepticism in the room whether the #EHDS can become a success. If our health data can be put to use for public and economic benefit remains an open question. #FRONTIERSTakeOver
- After four weeks in the #Arctic, I'm spending the next two months of my @frontiersmedia.bsky.social science journalism residency at @gfz.bsky.social in Potsdam. At GFZ, I'm embedded with the team of @lianegbenning.bsky.social who studies the secret lives and biogeochemistry of #glacier #microbes.
- For our English speaking friends: We're happy to host journalist and photographer @timkalvelage.bsky.social who will accompany our researcher @lianegbenning.bsky.social in the upcomings months. This was made possible through the FRONTIERS Science Journalism Residency Program of @erc.europa.eu 1/2
- The inaugural workshop of the #EHDS Forum is taking place today and tomorrow here in Copenhagen. This very interdisciplinary group of scientists will follow the implementation of the European Health Data Space regulation over the coming years ehdsforum.eu
- Nordhavn in Copenhagen that has been developed as a 5-minute city. When apartment buildings, office buildings, hotels and other service functions mix, everything is within reach without a car. One building combines a grocery store, parking garage and rooftop gym. #weekendexplorer #FRONTIERSTakeOver
- Enough of studying #renewableenergy from a desk. On the move across Spain, seeking solar & wind projects to see what I see.... @frontiersmedia.bsky.social @erc.europa.eu #BC3 #FRONTIERSfellowship #Spain #sciencejournalism #cleanenergy #biodiversity
- My #FRONTIERS project is about the European Health Data Space. This new EU regulation will soon become law and today I recorded the first story about it. To hear what #EHDS is about, listen to Breitband on Dlf Kultur tomorrow (in German). Thanks to Danmarks Radio for offering their studio!
- I was asked to give writing advice to scientists. I’d love to hear from you! #followerpower JOURNALISTS: What advice do you have? SCIENTISTS: What are your main issues with writing? #FRONTIERSTakeOver
- Fascinating guest lecture by Benjamin Lipp (Technical University of Denmark) today about “smart pain technology”, that is supposed to help chronic pain patients. But he reminds us: “convenience requires attention.” The idea of “set it and forget it” often doesn’t manifest. #FRONTIERSTakeOver
- Hi, I’m @tomtj.es! For next next few months I’ll work out of this former hospital building, and for the next few days I’ll post some impressions from the Centre for Medical Science and Technology Studies (MeST), the DataSpace research group, my work, and Danish life here on the #FRONTIERS feed.
- 🚀 Takeover Alert! Starting today, #FRONTIERSFellow Thomas Reintjes takes over our account for a week! Live from Denmark 🇩🇰, he’ll share insights from his residency at the Uni of Copenhagen, diving into the European Health Data Space and how anthropologists view data. Follow along! 👀 @tomtj.es

- 🖊️ What is long-form #sciencejournalism about? Meera Subramanian shared her process for turning research into compelling narratives with researchers at #BC3, the Basque Centre for Climate Change. #climatechange #biodiversity #frontierscience #FRONTIERSresidency
- What, exactly, are we #science #journalists up to? Great to pull back the curtain a little for the researchers of #BC3 & field their excellent questions, from how to handle uncertainty to whether to engage with, well, things like Bluesky @frontiersmedia.bsky.social @erc.europa.eu #FRONTIERSFellow
- 🎬 Say hello to Daniella Fleming, a #FRONTIERSFellow and science journalist! For the next 3 months, she’s based at the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre 🇪🇸, working with Prof. Rachel Lowe and the Global Health Resilience Group to explore the links between #climatechange and #globalhealth.
- With @drrachellowe.bsky.social's team, Daniella is diving into research on how climate change is driving the spread of waterborne infectious diseases — and how supercomputing can help predict these threats. 🦠
- Daniella first connected with @bsc-cns.bsky.social while working on a project months ago. That experience opened the door to an unexpected opportunity to apply for a #FRONTIERSresidency. Now, she plans to produce a documentary by the end of her residency! 🎬 Follow along for more! 🌐@erc.europa.eu
- "Science journalism can decode complex research, but journalists need scientists' help understanding technical topics. Working together is key to accurate reporting" 🎙️ @rjmsci.bsky.social Ruairi Mackenzie wraps up his #FRONTIERSResidency at @cicbiogune.bsky.social 🔗 bit.ly/ruairiinterv...
