Open science is a movement and set of practices aimed at making scientific research more transparent, accessible, and reproducible. It promotes the sharing of all aspects of the research process—including data, methods, software, publications, and peer reviews—so that others can verify, reuse, and build upon scientific work.
Open Access
Making research publications freely available to everyone without subscription barriers
Open Data
Sharing raw data so others can replicate findings or use it for new analyses
Open Methodology
Providing full details of research procedures to ensure transparency and reproducibility
Open Source
Using and sharing open-source software and tools in research
Open Peer Review
Making the peer review process more transparent and accountable
Citizen Science
Involving the public in scientific research, from data collection to co-authorship
Ultimately, open science seeks to increase transparency, accessibility and reproducibility
in research while democratizing access to scientific knowledge.
