The six principles of open science
A podcast by the Helmholtz Association on the subject of Open Science

Open science (Engl. Open Science ) refers to a scientific practice, participate in the other and can contribute, with research data, laboratory reports and other research processes are freely accessible, under conditions that allow the reuse, proliferation and duplication of research and the underlying data and methods. In short, open science is transparent and accessible knowledge that is shared and (further) developed through collaborative networks.

On the one hand, this includes product-oriented approaches that make (interim) results as openly accessible as possible, such as open access , open data or reproducible research.

On the other hand, it can also be understood to mean the opening up of scientific processes, which includes citizen participation , for example . Other scientists, students and the interested public are given insights into the development of scientific results or opportunities to participate in them yourself. Open science in this broad sense is particularly practiced in the context of citizen science projects and participatory research .

history

In the 1990s, the term 'public science' was newly and decisively coined for the German-speaking area by the sociologist and cultural scientist Caroline Y. Robertson-von Trotha . In the opening speeches of the Karlsruhe Talks in 1997 and 1998, she drafted the term 'public science' as a synonym for interdisciplinary and dialogue-based science communication. As a result, she embedded the concept in the historical-sociological context and in 2012 carried out the first of several analyzes "in the mirror of Web 2.0 culture". At the same time, as founding director of the Center for Applied Cultural Studies and General Studies (ZAK) in Karlsruhe, she also established her concept of 'Public Science in Theory and Practice' institutionally: In addition to research and teaching, this forms one of the three equally important pillars on which the center is based based. In 2012 an experiment of the first "open" doctoral thesis started. The work and all associated data were directly and immediately available to everyone during the entire creation process, freely accessible at any time on the Internet under an open and free license (CC-BY-SA). The experiment was successfully completed at the end of 2017 and published as an open access book at the beginning of 2018.

Politics, Economics and Law

The legal possibilities and limits of open science are primarily regulated in copyright law , personal rights and data protection law.

Open Science Goals

  • Transparency in experimental methodology, observation and collection of data
  • Public availability and reusability of research data
  • Open access and transparency of scientific communication
  • Use web-based tools to conduct scientific collaborations
