SYNOPSIS: Modern day research could use a hard refresh. In recent years, we've seen an explosion of activity and push for more "open science," from increased access to content and data to new tools and technology to help us address bottlenecks slowing down discovery. But for all of that development, the system is still moving slowly, gaps in training and skills still exist, and we're not moving forward in a coordinated fashion. This talk will look at how we can better work together to advance the mission of more open, collaborative, web-enabled science, and how, together, we can influence the culture of science by demonstrating new and open ways to conduct research on the web. |
