Fed up with the status quo of research culture, in 2017 a group of early career researchers (ECRs) at University of Cambridge launched the Bullied into Bad Science campaign. Now joined by over 100 ECRs from around the globe and those that support them, this campaign has kickstarted a movement to establish a fairer, more open and ethical research and publication environment. In this workshop,...
What if you could use an Open Science platform enabling you to seamlessly write with colleagues and instantly publish both your Articles and Definitions without leaving it? And what if the wider community of peers could then give the most transparent and diverse feedback by openly review both Articles and Definitions?
What if we took discoverability as seriously as accessibility? What if,...
How can editors, researchers, libraries, publishers and funders collaborate to flip existing journals to open access? In the next few years, the transition of subscription/hybrid journals to full open access will accelerate. Plan S has formulated a commitment that this has to seriously begin in 2020. This worries all stakeholders in scholarly communication for different reasons. We will...
Plan S aims to accelerate the transition to open access by imposing stricter open access rules on funded researchers. This has an effect on many actors, including institutions and their libraries. They will have to think about if and how to support Plan S, how to achieve transformative
agreements, how to advise researchers, and more.
This workshop is intended to bring together ideas and...
How can publishers, funders, researchers, administrators, and other stakeholders co-operate to make storage and sharing of laboratory notebooks more efficient?
Research notebooks (laboratory and other notebooks) are important to many stakeholders who interact to use and share scientific outputs. Despite concerted efforts to address concerns in this space, support is fragmented and there is...
We see now at least 3 international Open Science roadmaps (EC's Open Science Policy Platform, LERU, LIBER) and several national ambitions (France, UK). They complement each other and emphasise a common recommendation: to increase collaboration in research while maintaining a healthy competition in the system.
This workshop aims to identify:
1) what goals and principles that support...
