3 rounds (2min each)
- Publication
- Open Access
- Still money involved: APCs (author pays), (university) publishers are funded by DFG et al.
- Repositories usually don't do peer review
- Diamond/Golden/Green Open Access
- publishers add reputation (we can not replace that immediately)
- Strategy: transform existing journals into OA journals (or create a new one and migrate editors)
- rebel OA: scihub
- with scihub: is OA still the top priority or should we focus more on other aspects (e.g. Open Data)?
- scihub does not solve license problem (reusability)
- building open access infrastructure
- Open source code
- Open Licenses
- Zenodo
- How extensively to document? At least good enough for your future self (in 1 or 2 years).
- Education (Software/Data Carpentry)
- Preprints
- arXiv (arxiv.org), biorxiv (biorxiv.org), socarxiv (socopen.org)
- fear of getting scooped (in life science)
- overlay journals
- Preregistration (fight reproducibility crisis)
- Open data
- huge datasets in high energy particle physics
- privacy issues
- Open Licenses
- Zenodo https://zenodo.org/
- figshare https://figshare.com/
- Is there a way to ensure that all derived data is open? (GPL-like)
- in most cases no copyright on data possible
- Funders require OA publications
- Legal issues: EU copyright reform could result in problems for repositories and platforms using content
- negative results (journnal of negative results in biomedicine https://jnrbm.biomedcentral.com/ )
- Open Peer Review
- Metrics
- Impact factor
- Altmetrics: https://www.altmetric.com/, Publons
- WikiCite (not a metric, attempt to make citation data publicly available)
- Discoverability
- Communication to public
- Citability (doi for everything)
- Machine readability (Journal Article Tag Suite (JATS) Standard)
- Funding
- Idea
- Data generation
- Data analysis
- Reproducibility
- Frameworks for exact reproduction (using virtualization, docker)
- used tools are not open (software, devices)
- Open Notebook
- jupyter (interactive notebook, literate programming, json format)
- Reputation
- Open Practices in science education and teaching
- Citizen Science
- Infrastructure
* Tools for reproducible publication:
- rmarkdown
- jupiter notebook
- org-mode
# What can we do right now?
- As peer reviewer you can ask authors to comply with standards
- Talk about this stuff
- Sessions like this at local institutions
- Ask students to do a replication study (as a supervisor)
- Make students aware of the whole topic as early as possible (as a supervisor)
- Ask people applying for a position to make a statement about Open Science
- Training (Hackathons, Software/Data/Library Carpentry, dfg is spending on Personalentwicklung)
- Ask your Local Infrastructure Person (there is one at almost every place)
- Support SciHub
- Collect success stories / failure stories
- List of best (good enough) practices (OpenScience 101)
- Use momentum (e.g. boycott of Elsevier)
- Constant pressure
- Get people that are open into positions of power (e.g. professorships)
- Use test balloon projects by funders (e.g. suftware sustainability funding by dfg)
- Join like-minded people (calls, mailing lists, organizations)
