We're incredibly excited to officially welcome our 2025 Champions cohort! 
We've been working with these incredible people for the past month, and we're so honored by the community they've been building, as well as the knowledge and insight that they bring and share. To learn more about each of our Champions and the overall program, check out our blog post here: https://content.prereview.org/announcing-our-2025-prereview-champions/
The @openresearchcalendar is on Mastodon!! Thanks @bradleykennedy for making everything happen!
Give them both a follow!
The Open Research Calendar can be used by you to follow #OpenResearch #OpenScience events, or to add your own events to the calendar!
In order to open more the R project, I thought the next idea, which imply some homeworks for R package developers and R users doing research (to be published).
(A) For the researchers, they, always that possible, should 1) cite the main used R libraries for their research on their papers; and 2) make the R codes used for the (statistical) analyses computed for their research (papers) [and the tables and figures published] available (as Supplementary materials, as some VCS URL such as GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg... or by means of some repostory such as Zenodo, OSF..., or as persona websites...).
(B) And then, for package developers, it would be great that they have an updated vignette with examples of applications of their packages to research, at least for the most relevant applications (research done by relevant authors, in relevant journals, etc.)
Of course, (B) would use (A).

#OpenAccess durchbricht Barrieren zwischen Wissensschätzen und Wissenssuchenden.
Dazu trägt auch das Deutsche Dokumentationszentrum für Kunstgeschichte – Bildarchiv Foto Marburg (DDK) mit seiner Open-Access-Initiative bei. Welche Fotografien das Archiv frei zur Verfügung stellt, wie es dabei vorgeht und was die Motivation war, erläutert Archivdirektor Christian Bracht im Interview.

What a great article on 'The Case for #opensource in the Science System of Aotearoa'. So much of the learning here is applicable across the world in academia.
Many thanks to Jonah Duckles, Mik Black, Augustus Ellerm, David Eyers, Megan Gee, Alice Harang and #CURIOSS team member @richlitt for the wonderful insights.
Hey researchers, I'm looking for examples of #OpenResearch practices that you employ that directly benefit _you_.
I.e. things that work towards open science, but also benefit you directly (save you time/effort/money perhaps).

Follow us here for the latest #OSF2025NL updates on festival preparations, registration and programme developments, and of course during the event itself.
[Openscience] great project

@cOAlitionS_OA Acquiescing would be a grave error for the global #scholcomm initiative. It would have the potential to unleash an existential crisis upon the #OpenAccess movement. By setting the precedent, the oligpoly would seize upon the #ADC concept -- every publisher will start introducing them, and #GreenOA — the free, low barrier way of sharing research — will be extinguished. The corporate behaviour of the #oligopoly is quite predictable.
I live in hope... #OpenResearch #OpenScience
