After 9 years of building IGDORE, I’m stepping down from all formal roles. I’m deeply grateful for the journey – and remain committed to open, replicable science and to systems that give researchers the autonomy to pursue meaningful and rigorous research.

🚀 Big news for open science!
Preprint servers like bioRxiv and medRxiv play a crucial role in making research freely available to everyone – faster. But maintaining these platforms isn't easy; they rely on volunteers and often struggle with funding.
Now, thanks to startup funding from the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI), a new nonprofit, openRxiv, has been created to ensure preprint servers remain free, independent, and researcher-led. This means better stability, growth, and accessibility of preprint services for scientists worldwide!
Faster knowledge-sharing = faster discoveries. Let’s celebrate this step towards a more open and collaborative scientific community!

At IGDORE, we study the psychological mechanisms behind group violence – an area with limited research compared to peaceful protests. That’s why we're excited to be part of a new project exploring how personality traits, group identity, and social dynamics shape support for violent action.

Read about the school shooting in Örebro – how bullying and exclusion can lead to radicalization – and take a look at our newest research reports. Here is February's news from IGDORE - mailchi.mp/2e268f8795d5/igdo…
Can mindfulness, meditation and other tools designed to boost well-being make a difference? Adam Levy investigates in this pod. nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
At IGDORE, we are committed to improving the mental health and working conditions of researchers. Work-related stress and psychological distress are growing challenges in academia, often leading to burnout and decreased well-being. That’s why we are proud to be part of ReACT (Researchers' Act: Training for Psychological Flexibility and Work-Related Stress Management)– a three-year Erasmus+ project aimed at developing a self-help program for researchers based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
📷What is ReACT about?📷
📷Creating an interactive, multilingual, web-based self-help platform.
📷Evaluating the program’s effectiveness in reducing work-related stress.
📷Hosting awareness-raising events to engage the research community.
📷Developing policy recommendations to promote lasting structural change.
📷Why is this important?📷
📷Mental health support is essential for a thriving research community. By providing researchers with tools to manage stress and enhance resilience, we aim to foster a healthier, more sustainable academic environment.
As a partner in Researchers ACT (sweden.igdore.org/react/), IGDORE is excited to contribute to this vital initiative. Stay tuned for updates on our progress!
