[Reminder] Hybrid 5-day Open Science Summer School (9-13 Sep 2024)
The Max Planck Digital Library (MPDL) and the LMU Open Science Center are organising a hybrid 5-day Open Science Summer School on 9 – 13 September 2024 to allow early career researchers of any scientific discipline to gain more trust in the research that they do, and make it as credible, reproducible, and transparent as it can be in the eyes of their peers, the public, and funding agencies.
The Summer School will consist of public lectures and hands-on workshops for selected applicants. The in-person part of the school will take place on the premises of the Landsberger Straße 346, 80687 Munich. The online part will be on Zoom.
- You can find the programme, more information on the lectures, workshops, application and registration process on the MPDL “Open Science in Practice” website: https://osip.mpdl.mpg.de/lmu-mpg-open-science-summer-school-2024/
- To attend the whole school, i.e. both public lectures and workshops for selected applicants, in person or online, you must apply before 15 July 2024, 12:00 noon: https://surveys.osc.lmu.de/OpenScienceSummerSchool2024
- To attend one or several public lecture online, register at any time: https://www.pretix.osc.lmu.de/lmu-osc/SS24/
By joining, you will learn how to:
- clarify your research design and set up your statistical plans in advance of collecting data to prevent biases in analyses, with the help of preregistration and data simulation;
- create computationally reproducible workflows so you can be more efficient and spot mistakes in data wrangling or analyses, through programming with version controlled scripts;
- prepare, manage and share data and code in connection with your articles by applying the Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable principles, and using adequate repositories and licenses.
Increase the impact of your research and secure the acknowledgement of your and others contributions by opening your research practices!
