Meet an EMBL ‘DORA champion’ Andrew Hogan, who is a member of EMBL’s Responsible Research Assessment Working Group. The Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA) aims to establish solid, trustworthy strategies to assess research around the globe and across all academic disciplines. EMBL officially signed DORA in 2018 and convened a group two years later to help implement the principles and spread the word on the importance of rethinking how we can improve upon traditional research assessment approaches. Hogan shared his thoughts on the importance of establishing unbiased, fair strategies to assess research and researchers within EMBL and beyond. Read more here 👉 https://lnkd.in/gUWgWrht

Open access and open science have become hot topics in the worlds of research and academic publishing, with the drive towards open science enabling better collaboration, alongside greater accessibility and inclusion. But are there downsides to this, and is there a tension between making science open and protecting intellectual property? In this session we will discuss the challenges in this space, and how we might overcome them. In session five of our series – Science culture: taboos and tricky topics, we explore the question: “How do we tackle the conflict between intellectual property and the drive towards open science?” 2pm UK time, 17 July 2024, live on our LinkedIn and YouTube channels.
