There's a risk that through some of these boycotts, it will punish individual Russian scientists who may actually be opposed to the war. But on the other hand, you're then talking to Ukrainian scientists who are fearing for their lives. So yeah, there are arguments on both sides. There's this sort of undercurrent we think of this individual anger still going on. And that's why, yeah, so many people are trying to leave.
The ongoing war in Ukraine has devastated the global economy, rocked geopolitics, killed thousands of people and displaced millions. Science too has been affected and the impacts on research are being felt more widely than just in Ukraine and Russia.
In this episode of Nature's Takes we discuss the war's impact on publishing, international collaborations, climate change and energy, and the destructive impacts on scientists themselves. And as the war continues, we consider the future of science in the face of a new political climate.
