At the recent International Bologna Consensus Assembly on Telemedicine, ISOMERISM had the great pleasure of hosting a session dedicated to Concertation and distributed intelligence in Europe (if you want to read more about the session overall, please check our previous post) and we are proud to claim the session has been among the most stimulating, judging by the interactions triggered during its development and in follow up exchanges.
Repeatedly we have been asked to share the material that has been presented, and we are overjoyed to announce that Professor Giardini has been so kind to share with us his presentation!

Professor Giardini has masterfully discussed the distortions that inappropriate research assessment practices impose on the impact generation of R&I, and walked the audience through real life examples of how, through selecting appropriate metrics of success and impact, and by matching funding instruments of adequate size and reasonable competitiveness for the stage, it is possible to bring meaningful innovation to the ground.
The story of the teleophtalmology project, with its elements of reverse and bottom up innovation, of serendipity, and shared learning, is a joy of its own.
If you are interested in the topic, and would like to contribute to the European conversation around advancing research assessment, please consider signing the CoARA agreement.
