"Helicopter science" and datasets: Sarah Bratt and colleagues studied the use of Global South (GS) data by Global North researchers (in 3200 Scientific Data papers) , using OpenAlex and an LLM, ReFinEd, to identify entities in Geonames.

The % of GS authors on GS data papers has risen, but on papers using GS data only 35% have a GS researcher as 1st or last author.

p.s. Saying "ding" instead of "next slide" was new to me!
