The Knowledge Exchange is a partnership of six national
organisations within Europe. As part of its ambition to make
Open Scholarship work, the Knowledge Exchange has developed
a Framework for Open Scholarship. This sets out the different
phases in the research life cycle against a variety of perspectives
that present barriers/challenges for Science/Scholarship to
be open, at the same time acknowledging that there are many
levels of stakeholders, reaching from individual researchers to
institutions to national governments. In this talk the presenters
will explain the partnership and share their recent report and
current work around Open Scholarship.

Supporting the Transition towards Open Access: Putting the Researcher at the ...Dagmar M. Meyer
Presentation given at the conference "Academic Publishing in Europe 12: Publishing Ethics: Doing the Right Thing - Doing Things Right (APE 2017)", which took place in Berlin on 17-18 January 2017.
Abstract: The European Research Council (ERC) supports the principle of open access to research results as a fundamental part of its mission. It strongly endorses the policy that informs the OA 2020 initiative for the large-scale transition to open access. As an organization that is governed by scientists, the ERC considers it crucial that this transition take into account the important role of researchers in this context, be it as producers of knowledge, as actors in the review and publication process (within the established system or otherwise), or as users of other researchers’ output. The vast diversity of situations across different research communities makes this a complex and challenging task.
With this backdrop, we will first outline the ERC’s approach towards open access, highlighting some of the bottlenecks in the implementation. We will then discuss a number of initiatives that the ERC has engaged in to support the researchers it funds in opening up their results, and provide a glimpse of some ideas for the future.

Presentation given at the ISMTE European Conference 2016 which took place on 31 October - 1 November 2016 in Brussels, Belgium.
Abstract: In this interactive session the presenter together with the participants will investigate the question "Should you consider transitioning your journal to open access?" by looking at the motivations for considering a 'flip', the related challenges and opportunities, and specific issues to be addressed. Different approaches and scenarios will be presented.
Participants are invited to share their real-life experiences, to discuss success factors, risks and benefits related to a transition to open access.
The presentation is strongly inspired by the following review:

Multi-source connectivity as the driver of solar wind variability in the heli...Sérgio Sacani
The ambient solar wind that flls the heliosphere originates from multiple
sources in the solar corona and is highly structured. It is often described
as high-speed, relatively homogeneous, plasma streams from coronal
holes and slow-speed, highly variable, streams whose source regions are
under debate. A key goal of ESA/NASA’s Solar Orbiter mission is to identify
solar wind sources and understand what drives the complexity seen in the
heliosphere. By combining magnetic feld modelling and spectroscopic
techniques with high-resolution observations and measurements, we show
that the solar wind variability detected in situ by Solar Orbiter in March
2022 is driven by spatio-temporal changes in the magnetic connectivity to
multiple sources in the solar atmosphere. The magnetic feld footpoints
connected to the spacecraft moved from the boundaries of a coronal hole
to one active region (12961) and then across to another region (12957). This
is refected in the in situ measurements, which show the transition from fast
to highly Alfvénic then to slow solar wind that is disrupted by the arrival of
a coronal mass ejection. Our results describe solar wind variability at 0.5 au
but are applicable to near-Earth observatories.
Richard's entangled aventures in wonderlandRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.

The HR Strategy as a driver for excellence - DRC annual meeting 2010, Novi Sad - 5 February 2010
1. 1
The “Human Resources Strategy”
as a driver for Excellence
Dr. Dagmar Meyer
Directorate C
“Universities and Researchers”
DG Research – European Commission
DRC Annual Meeting 2010
– Session on Mobility –
University of Novi Sad
2. 2
Overview of the presentation
• Introduction – where did it all start?
Mobility Strategy, Charter & Code and
Human Resources Strategy
• What are the Charter and the Code?
Connection to research excellence?
• How is the implementation monitored?
How does the HR Strategy mechanism work?
• How can YOUR institution participate in the
process? Who is already participating?
3. 3
From the Mobility Strategy…
• Commission Communication (2001) “A Mobility
Strategy for the European Research Area”
• to create favourable environment for mobility
of researchers in the ERA to develop, attract
and retain appropriate human resources in
research and promote innovation, and
• to build up research competence and
excellence within the ERA.
4. 4
…to the “Careers Communication”…
• Commission Communication (2003)
“Researchers in the European Research Area:
one profession, multiple careers”, proposing to
• launch “European Researcher’s Charter” as a
framework for career management for
human resources in R&D on voluntary basis,
and to
• outline a “Code of conduct for the recruitment
of researchers” based on best practise to
improve recruitment methods.
5. 5
…and the Charter & Code…
• Recommendation from the Commission to the Member
States (2005) on a “European Charter for Researchers and
Code of Conduct for their Recruitment”
• Charter: specifies roles, responsibilities and
entitlements of researchers (at all stages of their
career), of employers and research funders.
• Code: set of general principles employers and
funders should follow when appointing or recruiting
researchers, to ensure transparency and equal
treatment
• Aim: develop an attractive, open and sustainable
European labour market for researchers
6. 6
…and on to the
HR Strategy for Researchers
• Growing support of Charter and Code in theory
(almost 1000 signatories from 28 countries), but practical
implementation slow…
• New tool to support the implementation of the
Charter & Code: HR Strategy for Researchers.
• Completely voluntary, but growing awareness among
funders of the value of the principles of Charter & Code.
• Commission supports process via an Institutional HR
Strategy Working Group (first group running, second group
planned to start in late 2010).
7. 7
…to support the European
Partnership for Researchers
• Commission Communication “Better careers and more
mobility: a European partnership for researchers” (2008)
to develop a partnership with Member States to
ensure the availability of the necessary researchers.
Four main themes:
• Open Recruitment and portability of grants
• Meeting the social security and supplementary
pension needs of mobile researchers
• Providing attractive employment and working
conditions
• Enhancing training, skills and experience of
researchers
8. 8
Key topics covered by
Charter & Code
• Ethical & professional aspects, incl. research
freedom, professional attitude, accountability, exploitation

What does this have to
do with excellence?
• Researchers will choose the institutions
offering the best conditions, if they have a
choice – and the best people do!
• Excellence will thrive where researchers can
develop their full potential – i.e. where they
• can enjoy a supportive environment,
• receive good training and
• are recognized as professionals.

How does the HR
Strategy work?
HR Strategy implemented via a 5-step programme:
• Internal gap analysis by the institution, involving
key institutional stakeholders, in particular also
researchers
• Development and publication of institutional
HR strategy in response to gaps identified
• Acknowledgement by Commission (Logo “HR
Excellence in Research”)
• Self-assessment of progress after two years
• External analysis after four years

How can YOUR institution
participate in the process?
• By raising awareness for the Charter and Code at all
institutional levels;
• by supporting the implementation of at least the
main principles, depending on institutional priorities and
resources;
• by signing the Charter and Code on behalf of your
institution to document your support;
• by engaging in the HR Strategy mechanism to
make your institution attractive to excellent researchers
internally and externally.
