Speaker - Anastasia Lutsenko, Scientific Coordinator of Academ.City, Kyiv Academic University of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Department of Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Max Planck Institute for Innovation and Competition.
Wars have a significant impact on the resilience of scientific systems and scientists, often leading to reduced research funding, disruptions in scientific communities, and the cessation of research processes. However, they also contribute to the emergence of new technological advances. Researchers, as a key source of scientific knowledge, play a crucial role in maintaining the productivity and progress of science during conflict. However, the lack of empirical data on this issue often results in limited evidence for decision-making. In our study, we aim to examine the impact of war on the perceived productivity of scientists by considering the case of the ongoing war in Ukraine. By exploring the challenges faced by researchers and the factors that contribute to their resilience, we aim to provide valuable insights into the needs of wartime science. Understanding the experiences and needs of scientists can help to develop policies and strategies that support and enhance the resilience of scientific systems in times of crisis.
