O currículo explosivo de uma médica muitíssimo influente e as "deficiências" curriculares das investigadoras Portuguesas

 

Ainda sobre o tal ranking elaborado pela revista Sábado sobre as 100 mulheres mais influentes de Portugal, onde na secção de ciência e saúde aparece uma médica (fotos acima da sua ficha policial) à frente de conhecidas investigadoras, vale a pena ver o explosivo currículo da mesma, comentado num post ontem publicado, no blogue de uma magistrado aposentado https://portadaloja.blogspot.com/2022/06/prpbr-finalmente-historia-nua-e-crua-de.html 

E porque será que a imprensa não acha importante perguntar-lhe para onde foram os 7 milhões de euros (valor actualizado aos dias de hoje) que o grupo a que ela pertencia, na altura, roubou a diversos bancos ?

E será que o facto dos jornalistas da revista Sábado, terem achado boa ideia dar mais destaque à supracitada medica com um currículo explosivo, do que às melhores investigadores Portuguesas, significa que as referidas investigadoras também tem que fazer "uma perninha" no domínio do bombismo para merecerem igual destaque por parte da imprensa ?

Os catedráticos endogâmicos que em Portugal se comportam como lordes feudais

 


Ainda na sequência do estudo, mencionado no post acima, sobre a endogamia envolvendo milhares de académicos em 140 países, é pertinente divulgar o recente e interessante artigo, de que abaixo se reproduz um pequeno extracto: 

"The process by which academic inbreeding enables the formation and perpetuation of an academic oligarchy is explained in this paper, but it is perhaps surprising to observe how much it resembles the social and political organization and structures of the Middle Ages. Full professors assume the role of “feudal lords,” guiding others and shaping strategy at various levels. Their domain is established based on particular characteristics, such as seniority, and given institutional knowledge control, granting them respect and power akin to those of real feudal lords. Their domain power is based on the number of other academics who are part of their network, similar to subjects in the feudal lord–subject relationship; and they pass their power to someone in the “hereditary” line when they retire, and in some extreme cases to others with whom they share consanguinity bonds..." https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11024-022-09469-6#Sec3

PS - O autor do artigo, o investigador Hugo Horta, deveria ter dito que os laços de consanguinidade com catedráticos, podem ser raros nas universidades de alguns países mas não o são, de todo, nas universidades Portuguesas  https://pacheco-torgal.blogspot.com/2020/03/em-portugal-ser-filho-de-alguem.html

Full professors as feudal lords


Still following the post above about a study on academic inbreeding that involved thousands of academics in 140 countries check below an extract of a recent paper:
