This next week, we’re hosting a community call on issues of open data in science, and we want you there! For background, the Science Lab community call takes place every other month, highlighting recent developments and work of the community relevant to science and the web. Join us to hear more about current projects, find out how you can get involved, and listen to others (or yourself!) discuss work in and around open research.
Our upcoming community call is this Thursday, October 12th.
The call is open to the public, starts at 11:00 am ET.
Call in details can be found on the call etherpad (where you can also find notes and the agenda). As with our June call, we’ll feature speakers on Air Mozilla, a video live-streaming platform which will be a departure from our typical dial in, and hopefully more accessible!
We have video for the call this month!
For August’s call, we’ll be talking about project management specifically, featuring speakers who build scientific projects and programs that solicit contributors and feedback from a broader open science community than their local lab. We’ll feature some speakers providing updates on their projects post-Global Sprint, and others sharing techniques in project maintenance and sustainable community development. You can look forward to hearing from the following group of speakers across research, industry, and institutional domains:
- Jo Pauls – developing Open Heart, a data repo + message forum for biomedical research share, Postdoc, Prince Charles Hospital Northside Clinical Unit, Faculty of Medicine
- Elizabeth Sylvan – hyperlocal science journaling, crafted visualization, and open data investigation, Open Data/Open Minds, @lisard
- Nokome Bentley – a platform for Reproducible Research, Stenci.la, @NokomeBentley
- Max Ogden + Danielle Robinson – desktop data sharing, DAT, @denormalize + @daniellecrobins
- Lily Winfree + Robin Champieux – building community around open science Data, Reusable Data Project,
We’ll also hear our closing updates from our 2017 Mozilla Fellows for Science, our 2017 Working Open Workshop at the Institute Pasteur and our Mozfest Sessions/Participants! Should be a great call!
Check out Mozfest, October 27-29, London
Have an update, blog post or event you’d like to share relevant to open science? Add it to the etherpad (see ‘Non Verbal Updates’). It’s a great way to share what you’re working on and/or interested in with the community. Don’t be shy. Have a look at last month’s notes on trust in open science for an idea of what others contributed to the conversation.
