Open Science Intro

The life cycle of Open Science encompasses all steps of scientific research: from hypothesis generation, to literature review, to data collection, to data analyses and finally to publication of results.

During this one-day conference, we would like to bring to the limelight some of these life cycle steps with special emphasis on collaborative platforms and tools that can be used to do open science.
