At the Crossroads of Open Science
A workshop offered by the Bonn Graduate Center in cooperation with the Bonn University and State Library
For science to be transparent and reproducible, it needs to be open. This concept is gaining increasing attention in the research community—but what does practicing open science actually involve? More importantly, how can you effectively integrate open science principles into your everyday research routine? In this workshop, we will explore these and other questions.

Description
For science to be transparent and reproducible, it needs to be open. This concept is gaining increasing attention in the research community—but what does practicing open science actually involve? More importantly, how can you effectively integrate open science principles into your everyday research routine? What does it have to do with FAIR and research data management? What are QRPs?
