This presentation by Laurent Gatto was part of OpenCon 2017's Next-Generation Initiatives Advancing Open panel. The #BulliedIntoBadScience campaign was initiated after several attempts to influence publishing practices at the University of Cambridge and in the UK. However, it seems at times impossible for academics, early stage and more senior, to change a broken system that is, sadly, just accepted by most. During this OpenCon 2017 Panel, Laurent shared some of the background of the #BulliedIntoBadScience campaign and reflected on early career researchers' challenges in fighting for a more ethical environment.
