Abstract: 

Research Is now reliant on software, but this software is not as findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable as it could be. In this lecture I will discuss some of the reasons why people are reluctant to invest effort in reusability, introduce the FAIR Principles for Research Software and how to implement them, and explain why making software FAIR supports Open Science, improves reproducibility and is beneficial to the developer.
