ENLIGHT-Webinar: Open science and property rights (2 Sep 2024)

Open Science promotes transparency and accessibility in research, facilitating replication and further exploration of findings. Reproducibility is a fundamental element, ensuring scientific reliability and advancement. However, this open approach often clashes with intellectual property concerns, revealing a tension between open access and proprietary rights. In a utopian scenario, universities could evolve into “free patent places,” where research is published openly, thereby maximizing public benefit and societal progress. 

All who are interested in those topics are invited to the English-language Webinar titled „The Irrelevance of Non-Reproducible Research“. Electronics engineer Dr. Erivelton Nepomuceno from the University of Maynooth in Ireland will talk about the tension between open science and property rights.

The event starts on the 2 September 2024 at 10:00 a.m.
