Are you conducting research and want to learn how to implement Open Science principles to every step of the research process? If so, the course “Open Science in the Swedish context” is for you! During one week in May, you will meet various experts who will provide you with tools to collect, analyze, share, preserve, and reuse data and other research output in an open and accessible manner.
The course is a collaboration between SciLifeLab and SND. SND’s training coordinator, David Rayner, is one of the organizers of the course, which is aimed at doctoral students, postdoctoral researchers, researchers, and principal investigators across all scientific disciplines.
The course will cover all aspects of Open Science. Through the course, participants will gain a deeper insight into what Open Science is and the benefits and challenges of implementing Open Science principles, specifically in a Swedish context.
Three key aspects of open science:
- Open access – free access to scientific results, primarily articles but also learning resources.
- Open data – making data, source code, and other research materials accessible; sometimes entirely open and sometimes with restrictions, such as for sensitive data.
- Citizen science – projects where the public takes part in the research process, for example, by formulating research questions or collecting data.
