In this episode, I talk with Arfon Smith of GitHub.com. At GitHub, Arfon promotes academic engagement in open source code and open science. Prior to working at GitHub, Arfon worked in a number of positions where he supported a changing infrastructure for the scientific process, built around open source, open data, and open science. You can find Arfon on Twitter @arfon or on GitHub.

Episode 22 – Arfon Smith – GitHub, Open Science and Academic Culture Change

On The Digital Life this week, we embark on the first in a special series of episodes put together in conjunction with our friends at the GET Conference, on the cutting edge of research science and technology.

The GET Conference is on the front lines of the open science movement, seeking to make scientific research and data accessible to both professionals and citizens.

In this episode we explore the topic of open science through interviews with Brian Bot and Jon Wilbanks of Sage Bionetworks, Alexander Wait Zaranek from the Personal Genome Project and Curoverse, and Tim Errington from the Center of Open Science.

PHOS16 - Philosophy and History of Open Science Conference 2016: Wrap Up Panel

Natalia Manola, Assoc. Researcher at Athens University and Athena Research Centre, guides us through the initiatives taken in the EU on open access for data, open source and facility sharing, that aim to ameliorate collaboration among scientists and researchers around the world, in spite of many and different faces of diversity. This initiative, through the Open Air e-infrastructure and other steps (including  the implementation of a European open science cloud) funded by major European countries, is closely linked to innovation and it also offers much needed reach to industry and the public. Interviewed by Yannis Rizopoulos for Tech Talks Central.

Ep 56: Dr. Kyle Niemeyer on Open Science

​As social scientists, we live in an era when the rigour of our research is under scrutiny – by colleagues seeking to improve its quality, by media interested in academic scandal, by publishers, and by funders.

​Our response has been a series of initiatives (‘DA-RT’), proposals (‘active citation’) and policies (‘JETS’).  This is appropriate and good, but it begs the question: at what cost? 

Lecture by Professor Jeffrey T. Checkel, comments by Senior Researcher Håvard Strand, and moderated by Henrik Urdal, Research Director, Research Professor and Editor of the Journal of Peace Research.

Data Access, Transparency and Open Science: Can We Have Too Much of a Good Thing?

Dr. Rouleau is one of the pioneers of open science and  the director of Montreal Neurological Institute which is one of the very first institutions to implement open science in all areas of its research.
Dr. Rouleau comes to The Neuro from the Université de Montréal, where he was Director of the CHU Ste-Justine Research Centre and founder and Director of the Centre of Excellence in Neuroscience. There he held the Canada Research Chair in Genetics of the Nervous System as well as the Jeanne-et-J.-Louis-Levesque Chair in Genetics of Brain Diseases. Dr. Rouleau is Director of the Réseau de Médecine Génétique Appliquée – Fonds de recherche du Québec - Santé.

Open Science Podcast with Dr Guy Rouleau

Our topic today is, open science, and we have three guests to help get a handle on this wide-ranging subject.

Daniel Schwartz is the Boeing-Sutter Professor of Chemical Engineering and Director of the Clean Energy Institute at the University of Washington.

David Beck is a Senior Data Scientist with the eSciences Institute at the University of Washington.

And Matthew Murbach is the president of the University of Washington ECS Student Chapter.

They are all going to be at the 232nd ECS Meeting this fall in National Harbor, Maryland participating in OpenCon and running the ECS Hack Day.
