Plan S大步邁向學術論文全面開放，轉化性協議大受討論
近年來，如何打破付費牆（paywall），讓由公費支援的學術成果不受阻礙地傳播，已成為科學界熱門話題。許多團體應運而生，歐盟多國發起cOAlition S，致力於推行開放近用普遍化，在2018年底提出Plan S倡議（S計劃），向此目標大步邁進。而為了達成此目標，各大學術出版社必須重新訂定與學術界的協議，一步步取消訂閱收費的模式。

如何有效管理研究補助金？
爭取研究贊助單位的經費補助，競爭日益激烈，因此，要能寫出可以得獎的研究計畫，是一門大學問， 應將研究計畫申請書當成推銷文件、而非技術文件來寫。然而，一旦爭取到研究補助金之後，如何有效管理，卻又是另一個重要的課題。
開始花費之前
研究補助金通常都有複雜的報帳和記錄規則，因贊助機構而異。獲得經費後的首要之務，便須詳讀這些規則，以便熟知自己的補助金，可以核銷那些項目，又有什麼支出是無法被涵蓋的。例如有些補助金不能核銷交通費用，有些不准買書、或購置硬體設備等。…

理工科目（STEM）性別平等攻略
學術圈中日益重視作者權的道德問題，例如一篇文章多位作者列名，研究顯示， 33%的人坦承曾將對該文毫無貢獻的學者列進共同作者名單中；另一個備受關注的問題，則是女性作者們所遭受的不平等待遇。
學術界的性別不平等
雖然學術圈的兩性平權情況已不斷改善，但在職位、出版、同儕評審、以及作者權的肯定上，兩性間的差別待遇仍存在著相當明顯的落差，儘管許多研究已證明，女性在科學、技術、工程、數學（簡稱STEM）等科目上，其實都有更傑出的表現。

如何有效地搜索和閱讀專利 – 給研究人員的提示
專利有兩個目的：授予發明人權利和防止他人主張所有權。在研究上專利能鼓勵創新，避免在非原創工作上浪費寶貴的時間和資源。如果研究人員計劃申請專利，就一定要懂得怎麼做專利檢索。
專利是出了名的複雜。如何進行專利檢索？在這裡，兩位年輕的科學家Matthew和Jennifer討論要如何有效地搜索和閱讀專利。
專利：基礎知識
Matthew：主管希望我為正在開發的新產品申請專利。不知道從哪裡開始，可以幫幫我嗎?…
