Open Science
Open Science is a global movement that seeks to make scientific research, its data and dissemination accessible to everyone. This means breaking down barriers and promoting open knowledge sharing at all stages of the research cycle.
Open science is based on a number of fundamental principles:
-
Transparency: The scientific process must be open, allowing others to verify and understand the methods used
-
Accessibility: Research results, including publications and data, should be easily accessible without financial or technical constraints
-
Cooperation: Promote collaboration between researchers, across disciplines, institutions and with the wider community
-
Reproducibility: Promote transparency of the study steps to enable others to replicate the study, thereby strengthening the credibility of the results
-
Inclusion: Ensuring that research can involve a wide range of actors and benefit society as a whole
Open Science aims to accelerate discovery by promoting more efficient use of resources, avoiding duplication and creating a more trusting scientific environment. It is truly a shift in research culture, from science that often takes place in closed 'laboratories' to an open, connected and more dynamic global research ecosystem.
