Rigour and Openness in 21st Century Science
This is an excellent collection of talks from the Oxford Future of Science event held last month: rigourandopenness.com
Entitled "Rigour and Openness in 21st Century Science", the event brought together representatives from the many areas of science and publication -- including policy makers, publishers, librarians, entrepreneurs, authors and the media -- to debate the direction of science and the challenges in combining the rigour of peer review with the benefits of fast publication and open science.
With 35 speakers and over 100 attendees, the talks covered six key (and inter-related) areas of discussion:
- Open Access
- Citizen Science
- Beyond Traditional Articles
- Open Data
- Peer Review
- Open Innovation
To join the continuing discussion on open science, head to the OKF Open Science Working Group, and if you finish all the talks and still want more, checkout our contribution on building a platform for collaborative open science:
