Evolving approaches to open science and research transparency education

Zoom information + registration

This month we are joined by Jo Weech, Research Transparency Program Manager at the Berkeley Initiative for Transparency in the Social Sciences BITSS. Jo supports teams working on academic forecasting, evidence aggregation, and reporting in economics. In addition to its research projects, BITSS hosts an annual conference and course on research transparency. Her presentation for the September meeting will be on how education in open science and research transparency has evolved due to changes in researcher norms and use of AI.

Bay Area Open Science Group

The Bay Area Open Science Group is a growing community for Bay Area academics and researchers interested in incorporating open science into their research, teaching, and learning. Targeting students, faculty, and staff at UCSF, Berkeley, and Stanford, the goal of the community is to increase awareness of and engagement with all things open science, including open access articles, open research data, open source software, and open educational resources. Through this work the group hopes to connect researchers with tools they can use to make the products and process of science more equitable and reproducible.

Meetings:

4th Tuesday of the month, 2 - 3 PM Pacific on Zoom.
