Open Science

Open Science is the idea that academic findings like research data and publications should be shared as openly as possible as early as possible. In other words: As much as possible should be published transparently and made available to the public as early as possible in the academic process.

In the context of Re:ERUA, work package 5, which is led by the University of Konstanz, pursues Open Science-related efforts in the context of ERUA by seizing synergies within the alliance to the end of enhancing Open Science-related efforts within the alliance.
