We met Marcel Ackermann of the Schloss Dagstuhl – Leibniz Center for Informatics who just moderated a session at #s20bar about incentives for open science. Have a listen how he summarizes the session.
OSR043 Incentives for Open Science #s20bar [EN]
OSR042 Pre-registration within the Publication Process #s20bar [EN]
Johannes Breuer (Twitter) just moderated a #s20bar session about pre-registration for publications, a concept for a 2-step-publications process that is already in use with some journals. The idea behind it is to submit your idea and methodology in a first step and when accepted do the data collection and analysis.
We asked him for a short summary.
OSR041 Ignition Talk by Felix Schönbrodt: Putting Open Science into Practice #s20bar [EN]
Felix Schönbrodt of LMU Munich just gave an ignition talk at the Barcamp Science 2.0 to stimulate some ideas and ground for debate during the rest of the day.
Putting Open Science into practice: Simple but powerful steps for researchers, universities, and journals
Even if I embrace the values of research transparency – where should I begin? How can I move my institution a little towards openness? This short talk highlights some recent developments and practical examples that enable researchers and institutions to put Open Science into practice.
We took the opportunity after his talk to have a little chat.
OSR040 Putting Open Science into Practice at the Barcamp Science 2.0 #s20bar [EN]
The Open Science Radio will attend this year’s Barcamp Science 2.0 and the Science 2.0 Conference (at least day 1 of 2) in Cologne. We will use this great opportunity to record and publish a few special episodes dedicated to these events and the related topics.
This year’s edition of the barcamp (#s20bar), taking place on the 2nd of May, will focus on the topic „Putting Science 2.0 and Open Science into practice!“ and addresses all people interested in open science – junior scientists, senior researchers, practicioners and also interested non-professionals. The interactive barcamp format will be a good opportunity to meet members of the community and take active participation in the fruitful discussions.
The conference (#s20conf), taking place on the 3rd and 4th of May, will mainly focus on the European Open Science Cloud and the many (open) questions around it. This classical academic conference format will give researchers, policy makers and publishers a good opportunity to get interesting insights on the European level of open science. Furthermore, it is the final conference of the EEXCESS project and participants will be shown concrete scenarios and applications developed by this EU project.
In order to get a good introduction to both events and topics, we’ve invited one of the organizers, Guido Scherp, to join us in this episode and provide us with a brief overview what participants can expect from the 2 events. Since registrations are still open, Guido warmly invites all interested people to join either (or both) of the events.
Have fun!
OSR039 Die digitale Werkzeugkiste für eine offene Wissenschaft
Inspiriert von der letzten Episode mit Greg Wilson von Software Carpentry und etwas „geschubst“ durch die Ereignisse rund um Sci-Hub haben wir in dieser Episode mal den Werkzeugkasten eines offenen Wissenschaftlers angeschaut. Oder besser ausgedrückt: wir werfen mal einen Blick darauf welche Tools darin liegen könnten die entlang des Forschungszyklus von der Ideenfindung und Antragsschreiberei bis hin zur Publikation wissenschaftlicher Ergebnisse zum Einsatz kommen. Natürlich ist unser Blick dabei aus unserer eigenen Position heraus gefärbt, aber wir hoffen damit einen kleinen Überblick und Anregungen vermitteln zu können. Dabei kommen wir auch auf das ein oder andere Tool zurück, dass wir hier schon erwähnt haben.
OSR038 Software Carpentry with Greg Wilson [EN]
Software Carpentry is an initiative that has already been mentioned in various Open Science Radio episodes. From 1998 it has ventured out in order to teach scientists how to teach other scientists how to program software that helps them in their daily work with scientific (data) analysis. The community-driven project is a unique one and it was about time that we dip into their activities. Luckily we don’t need to do that alone but are honored that Greg Wilson, the co-founder of Software Carpentry, has freed up some of his time to give us an introduction and answer some of our questions. In addition, it is quite convenient that Konrad already has gained some experience with Software Carpentry himself. We hope this episode provides a small introduction to this great initiative and maybe encourages someone of you to participate and support it. Besides, we strongly recommend that you take some time and have a look at the material yourself. Enjoy!
