    Throughout history, scientists have been both influenced by and constrained by the societal context in which they conduct their research. Scientific practices evolve as societies evolve. Who conducts scientific research, what tools and methods are available to them, what norms there are for dissemination of scientific knowledge, and how the society at large views the importance and...

    Demo

    The objective of Open Data is on one hand to produce trust in science and scientists among the general public. On the other hand to enable the reuse of data for further analyses and better exploitation. Open Data itself does not necessarily allow the reuse of data – to this end, resources (like e.g. storage and compute) as well as appropriate software and metadata are...

    The emergence of a digitally enabled Open Science has coincided with the vast growth of high education in the Global South, leading to a vast expansion of research and publishing activity, as attested to, for example, by the 55,000 journals (almost entirely open, without fees for readers or authors) using the journal publishing platform Open Journal Systems (OJS) launched in 2002. The rate and...

    For science to be truly open, people need access not only to resources but also to the confidence to use them — especially in data science, where technical tools are key to sharing data and code under FAIR principles. However, the tech space remains male-dominated, and many women and newcomers feel out of place. This lack of belonging can prevent people from engaging fully.
