Hey there! I work at the National Institute of Health Carlos III (Spain), at the international projects office. My centre is part of the ORION network, and that's how I arrived here.

Part of the job is to promote collaborations between different stakeholders; and through the Open Science philosophy, we'd have better chances of engaging the people into a project.

Ah, and my Open Science animal is the Squirrel : ) 

Hello, although I have two science degrees, my focus has been on the research management and tech transfer side of research. My interest is in RRI concepts and in particular how Open Science approaches can help broaden the impact of public investment in research. I am interested in keeping up-to-date with the latest thinking in the area of Open Science as I train others on data and project management.

I am post-doc at Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm, Sweden.

Hi, my name is Lucy. I am studying Tropical Disease Biology. I am particularly interested in vector control and discovering new ways of managing disease-carrying insects. 

I am passionate about science communication, as I believe sharing knowledge can save lives and spark new ideas. I joined this course because I would love to learn how to effectively engage people about the important work going on all around. I love how the collaboration of different fields and people can open up so many new opportunities, for both researchers and the public, and can really change and challenge our own thinking.

About me:

I have 15 years’ experience as a biomedical researcher at Karolinska Institutet and 1 years’ experience from the industry as an application specialist in molecular diagnostics.

Duties

As a coordinator for research documentation at the Research Data Office (RDO) I work primarily with KIs system for electronic research documentation ELN (Electronic Notebook):

• I handle ELN-related requests and incidents.

• I help researchers to adapt ELN to their research.

• I hold demonstrations and workshops on ELN.

• I participate in ELN's management activities.  

Within the framework of RDO, I work both internally with the university administration and actively with researchers at KI's institutions and also collaborate with the university library, the IT department and the archive.

I participate in the development of the support to KI researchers and assist KI's research groups with education and information regarding research documentation and management of research data.

Hi everyone! I am Olivia, a cell biologist/biochemist based in Barcelona. I actively collaborate to SciDF, a local scientific association aiming to promote dialogue between science, society and politics. And by, the way, it seems that I am an exotic Open Science Meerkat ;)

I've just started my PhD in bioinformatics and Data Science at Masaryk University. I have a background from molecular anthropology and forensic genetics from my previous studies. I've chosen this course because I consider sharing knowledge and data particularly important not only for future research but also for the presence.

Hi all. My Open Science animal is a Meerkat. When I am not being a meerkat, however, I am a third-year, undergraduate Psychology student studying at the University of Newcastle. Currently I am undertaking a placement year in a comparative neuroscience lab, with current project focuses being on both animal welfare assessment and also comparative models of Major Depressive Disorder.

I was drawn to this course as I believe Open Science to be a crucial aspect of the future for psychology and other sciences alike, and hence I would love adopt its practices from as early in my career in science as I can!
