What are some things they should start doing in 2022 to make it a productive and successful year? We asked this question to a diverse set of colleagues at CACTUS who, through the roles they play, have personally gained rich insights into the changing research\/publishing landscape and its implications for researchers. Here\u2019s what they had to say:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Dr. Donald Samulack<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Head, Global Stakeholder Engagement<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Default Alt text\" class=\"media-element file-default\" title=\"Default Title Text\" src=\"https:\/\/insights.cactusglobal.com\/sites\/default\/files\/Donald%20Samulack%20headshot_Donald%20Samulack.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">With a PhD in medical physiology and a specialization in neuroscience, Dr. Samulack is actively involved in supporting the publication needs of the academic community and raising the level of awareness and professionalism of good publication practices, worldwide. He understands the logistics of scholarly publication, author support, and research communication needs. He is a major player in shaping perceptions and defining workflows to accelerate science.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Researchers are bombarded with a lot of information, and quite honestly, it is their job to make sense of it all. However, these days the level of information \u201cnoise\u201d and potential distraction has skyrocketed. Everything has changed due to the COVID pandemic, and the resulting stresses have altered our ability to focus on what is important to be successful in one\u2019s research endeavors. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Journals, social media, resource sites, e-mails, and various other information feeds can all be overwhelming&#8230;not to mention the data coming out of the lab, and your own research environment pressures. In addition, we all have a weakness toward our own mental-escape addictions (Netflix, TikTok, etc.).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">For a researcher to be successful in 2022, they will need to filter information and reduce the number of channels of content they pay attention to. The key to research success in 2022 will be to be laser-focused on what is important, and only focus on the channels of information that offer a high scholarly return for one\u2019s time invested.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">This will, of course, be different for every person, every discipline, every environment, and every geography. However, the need to focus and reduce the information noise will be absolutely critical to success in 2022.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Clarinda Cerejo<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Senior Director, Thought Leadership<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Default Alt text\" class=\"media-element file-teaser\" title=\"Default Title Text\" src=\"https:\/\/insights.cactusglobal.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/medium\/public\/IMG-20220123-WA0016_Clarinda%20Cerejo_0.jpg?itok=DUsyxdbG\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Clarinda has spent over 15 years working with researchers to help them succeed in their professional and personal lives.

In 2022, I would encourage researchers to step out of their shell or comfort zone and try something new: This could mean writing a plain-language summary of their work (what was done, what was found, why it\u2019s important) and sharing it on LinkedIn or Medium; tweeting out a link to their published paper and tagging academics they look up to; publishing a preprint before submitting their article to a journal; or talking to a science journalist about their published work. Once researchers start thinking about spreading the word, they\u2019ll be surprised at the world of opportunities that open up to them!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Dr. Shilpi Mehra<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Head, Publication Support Services<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Default Alt text\" class=\"media-element file-teaser\" title=\"Default Title Text\" src=\"https:\/\/insights.cactusglobal.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/medium\/public\/Shilpi_Shilpi%20Mehra_0.JPG?itok=TD-Jeurg\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">A dentist by training, Dr. Shilpi Mehra majored in Epidemiology and Biostatistics in her Masters programs at Boston University and the Free University of Amsterdam.

They can then share these with early career researchers who may be struggling to deal with the complexities of the academic world in addition to pandemic-related challenges. Sharing these insights can help early career researchers understand how they can cope with failures and regrets, how to maintain a positive attitude through difficult times, and how to find ways to explore big opportunities in an uncertain future.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Andrea Hayward<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Senior Associate, Global Community Engagement<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Default Alt text\" class=\"media-element file-teaser\" title=\"Default Title Text\" src=\"https:\/\/insights.cactusglobal.com\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/medium\/public\/Andrea%20Hayward_Andrea%20Hayward_0.jpg?itok=S8C8N7dH\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 8pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Coming from an educational background in Psychology, Andrea has always been a passionate mental health advocate.

They should start treating their health and wellbeing\u2014both physical and mental\u2014as a priority rather than an afterthought. The toxic work culture of academia might make them feel like they\u2019re not doing it right, if they\u2019re not working ALL the time. But this is absolutely not true! In 2022, I wish and hope that more researchers realize that their value is not determined by their productivity and that they don\u2019t have to earn their breaks. I hope they begin to see that poor mental health and extreme stress are not a rite of passage that they have to go through, that they are deserving of care, and that asking for help doesn\u2019t make them weak or unprofessional. In 2022, I hope more researchers understand that they don\u2019t have to work themselves until the point of burnout, and that it\u2019s okay for them to progress along their academic journey at a pace that suits them.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another year has gone by when many researchers continued to work with COVID-19\u2013related challenges, although perhaps with a little more confidence than before.
