Open Science for Open Knowledge: A Roundtable
Thursday, October 25th, 4-5 PM 2018
Babbidge Library, Visualization Studio
Replication is a key element of the scientific method. In order to further innovation, discovery, and equitable access, open science is paramount. What is open science? According to B. Fecher and S. Friesike, open science, “is one of the buzzwords of the scientific community.” Nevertheless, it can imply many things like open access to research, citizen science, open software and infrastructure to support research sharing and collaboration. We will discuss these talking points at this roundtable. The speakers will be faculty and graduate students from the UConn scientific research community. This event will be held in collaboration with Open Access Week 2018. The theme for Open Access Week 2018 is, “Designing Equitable Foundations for Open Knowledge.” Come join us!
