Description

The physics community has been at the forefront of many aspects of open science. With the advent of big science, international collaborations have required tools to share information at scale. The world wide web, preprint servers (arXiv.org) and many other platforms (such as the Worldwide LHC Computing Grid and the CERN data portal) have been developed to allow the rapid and efficient knowledge management and dissemination. While biology and other disciplines only start to adopt best practices that many physicists take for granted, there are probably tricks that physicists could learn from chemists, geneticists or even psychologists. It is time for all disciplines to talk about open science and share their experience on how to make the scientific enterprise more open.
