When I tweeted this (OT) last Thursday, I hadn't expected it to spark subtweet discussions. More surprisingly, were the responses from @lamaveproject and 2/3 of the authors. Here is a long-ish 🧵to unpack everything #DecoloniseScience #DEI from the past 3 days:
I deliberately did not mention the authors @VSenigaglia @daniellahanf @ponzoale in the OT. Seeing that they had all listed LAMAVE as a common affiliation, it seemed this was an organizational problem. And yes, I ---
--- will continue to tag @lamaveproject in this thread even though they have denied any affiliation to the paper in question. [more on this later]
What is happening in 2022 when foreigners still can't include a Filipino as a co-author in their research work conducted in the Philippines with Filipino researchers? 😬 #DecoloniseScience
Another disappointing move by @lamaveproject --- a 4-part thread:
Another disappointing move by @lamaveproject --- a 4-part thread:
The paper is probably good - I skimmed through it - but I haven't been able to read it thoroughly because I was distracted by the fact that I know Filipino researchers who helped collect this data and who probably deserved more than a mention in the Acknowledgements. 2/4
And yes, I am fully aware that bridges were burnt between certain people that may have prevented adding any of the Filipinos as co-authors. I've no idea if there was any effort to include any of them, tho tbh I wouldn't be surprised if Filipinos declined. 3/4
The spicy 🔥🌶️🌶️🌶️🔥 paper is out of the oven! We put fossil discoveries from the last decades in Mexico and Brazil under the microscope and show how colonial science practices are still prevalent. [1/n]

Mexico and Brazil have rich fossil sites with spectacular fossils. They attract the attention of researchers from around the world and general public alike. They should boost local science and benefit local communities through tourism. [2/n]
But too often they are studied by foreign teams without participation of local institutions. Too often they end hidden in private collections or leave the country. This happens in ways that are legally difficult to explain. [3/n]

Peço aos colegas q levantem mais uma vez a bandeira para atrair atenção para a atitude e posicionamento antiético do museu alemão. #UbirajarabelongstoBR
Paleoartistas da minha timeline, artes de protesto novamente são bem-vindas. Atentando para os outros fósseis citados na carta.
