“Open Science?”

                                                 What is it?

                                                 Why should I care?

“Open Science?”
                                         The movement that advocates making
                                          changes to the research process that
                                          make more of the outputs of research
                                          accessible in an effective and timely way


                                                  more stuff,
                                                  more available,
                                                  more quickly

The research contract is changing

The relationship between scientist and publisher will be
different

            How bio-ontologies enable
                  open science
Open science requires structured content

Generation of structured content requires automated and
collaborative curation

NCBO provides services that address these needs:

  Measuring the adoption of
  open science sharing data


How much is shared, not shared?
Who is sharing and who isn’t?
Why do people share or not share?
Social issues
              Heather Piwowar
          Measuring the adoption of
          open science sharing data

40% said data sharing was discouraged during
their training

80% said sharing was too much effort

Obstacles are publishing, control, and cost
Social issues
               Heather Piwowar
           Measuring the adoption of
           open science sharing data

Benefits are personal as well as societal

People will share if they think it really helps others

It would be easier if there was more help, better
tools and guidelines
Main themes
          “If you build it, they won’t come.”
                               - Sean Mooney

The design of tools cannot be divorced from the cultural
 and social issues that surround them

Community building is just as important as tool building

Need active conversation between users and builders
Main themes
 “You cannot manage what you cannot measure.”
                                 - Lord Kelvin


Does any of this actually provide benefits, and if so, to whom?

What is the return on investment?

Without this it is difficult to convince anyone of anything
Tools?

Specific tools are required
  (persistent identity, good
  repository systems)

Build the service and the
 community

Policy?
Standards and methods of
  citation are at the core of
  good science

Focus on specific actions
  with measurable
  outcomes

Identify successes (and
  celebrate), identify failures
  (and learn)

Improving the research process
is an area for (experimental) research
        that requires the same
     rigour, standards, and funding
      as anything else that we do
