OpenAIRE is running a series of community calls for ARGOS to support all researchers in meeting their Horizon Europe requirements by creating FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) DMPs. Similarly, it supports all research performing and funding organisations to orchestrate their data services around ARGOS and connect data workflows contributing to interconnected Research Data Management ecosystems. These calls offer the opportunity to discover ARGOS novelties and learn how to benefit from them in your practice, share feedback and discuss the future of DMPs as FAIR and machine actionable outputs, i.e. as complete outputs that bring validated information, qualified references and automations to the table to assist the processes of collecting, documenting and publishing your data.

Das Online-Seminar gibt Ihnen die Werkzeuge für den operativen Umgang mit dem Analysetool SciVal an die Hand und behandelt im Zuge dessen folgende Themen: Einführung in SciVal - Überblick über die Anwendungsbereiche - Die Module und Entitäten - Zentrale Metriken wie den h-Index oder den Field-Weighted Citation Impact - Anwendungsbeispiele - Sensibilisierung für die steigende Relevanz von Publikationsleistungen.

2026 findet die dritte Ausgabe des großen OER-Fachtags von ORCA.nrw statt. Freuen Sie sich über den Tag hinweg auf eine spannende Keynote, Projektvorstellungen, Workshops und viel Austausch & Vernetzung!

The learning objective of the course is to enable participants to apply these techniques in design-oriented and/or quantitative empirical research projects.

The conference offers three days full of exchange, inspiration and practical insights in the unique historical setting of the Welfenschloss. A diverse programme is planned, featuring keynote speeches, presentations, a poster session, a ‘market of opportunities’ and other exciting formats. The relevant calls for submissions will be published at a later date on this page. CoRDI stands for new scientific insights through the better use of research data – and for the resulting benefits to society. We look forward to welcoming national and international stakeholders from all fields of research, as well as from the infrastructure sector.

This session will cover the topic of the recently published NFDI Section ELSA factsheets “FAIR-Principles and Data Protection. How can FAIR data management be reconciled with the General Data Protection Regulation?“ The aim is to support researchers and illustrate the interplay between the FAIR framework and the privacy requirements in RDM, by showing that the two in fact supplement each other. Thus, researchers can learn how to comply with both frameworks, identify legal issues in their research projects and use various tools and resources for self-education.

Der Workshop beleuchtet zunächst das Verhältnis der Text-und-Data-Mining-Schranke zu den CC-Lizenzen und geht dabei insbesondere auf die Opt-out-Option der TDM-Schranke ein. Des Weiteren wird ein Einblick in verschiedene Ansätze gegeben, mit denen ein Ausgleich in diesem Spannungsverhältnis geschaffen werden soll. Vorgestellt werden unter anderem die CC Signals von Creative Commons, Really Simple Licensing (RSL) sowie die AI Preferences der Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). Dabei soll vor allem darauf ein Blick geworfen werden, wie und ob einzelne Akteurinnen (z. B. Open-Access-Verlage, Herausgebende, Autorinnen) die „Instrumente“ anwenden können.

This webinar explores full-cycle open science as a practical approach to opening the entire research process: from pre-registration and research design to open data, open methods, reproducible workflows, and open publication. Drawing on the values of transparency, reproducibility, collaboration, and responsible openness, the session will introduce relevant infrastructure for implementing open practices throughout the research lifecycle. The webinar is presented by the Open Science Foundation and highlights how open science can improve research quality, reproducibility, and societal impact.

Dr. Tim Errington is one of the driving forces behind the reproducibility and open science movement, known among other things for the recently published large-scale Reproducibility Project and his work on OSF. In this lecture, he will reflect on what it takes to move open science from principle to practice, and how research culture itself needs to change to make that possible. This event is open to anyone with an interest in open science, research integrity, and research culture, including researchers, PhD candidates, students, policy advisors, and support staff alike.

Conference Theme: Come Invent With Us! Innovating Open Practices to Uphold and Uplift Knowledge as a Public Good. We recognize that invention is most powerfully sparked when different perspectives and practices intersect. Therefore, we look forward to a program that integrates the arts and sciences; Indigenous and Western knowledge systems; global and local viewpoints; research-based and lived experiences; and other open movements (open source software, open data, open access, open science) and open education. 

IOSP is built on a single working principle: the people who depend on open science infrastructure and the people building it should be in the same room, working on the same problems, long enough to make real progress. This year, across the two main working days, we build a participant-owned data storage consortium, publish datasets, code, and knowledge objects to it, create our own algorithms that assess the trust and value of what's published, and assemble community-owned collaboratives that route funding based on their interpretation of that analysis. The pieces of open science already exist. It's time they were woven into a coherent system.

CC licenses have long served as a legally enforceable tool for digital sharing–focused on open sharing in the public interest. With increasingly widespread machine use of content through AI, we have seen an increase in enclosure and less permissive sharing as a response. In this webinar we will speak about how open sharing remains essential to the public-interest work of increasing access to knowledge and culture. We will start with a short presentation on the guidance and how it impacts different sectors like Education, Science and Culture. We will then take questions from the audience and hear about any feedback you might have. This guidance is just one part of our ongoing work, where we will be continuing to work towards tools that give more agency, and clear rules for the AI era.

As the EOSC flagship event, the Symposium annually brings together the entire stakeholder community, including researchers, policy-makers,  organisations and infrastructures to share and celebrate the latest developments around EOSC and the EOSC Federation. Be sure to save the dates in your calendar. Further details coming soon!

Das SSH Open Marketplace Editorial Board lädt 2026 zu einer neuen Online-Reihe ein, in der zentrale Aspekte rund um digitale Forschungspraktiken, FAIR- und CARE-Prinzipien sowie den strategischen Einsatz des SSH Open Marketplace im Forschungsalltag im Mittelpunkt stehen. Anhand praxisnaher Beispiele erhalten die Teilnehmenden Einblicke in Tools, Workflows und Kurationsprozesse, die den Umgang mit Forschungsdaten erleichtern und deren Sichtbarkeit und Nachnutzbarkeit stärken. Die Reihe eröffnet zugleich Raum für Austausch: Erfahrungen aus laufenden Projekten, Bedarfe aus der Community und mögliche Beiträge zum SSH Open Marketplace können gemeinsam reflektiert und weitergedacht werden.

Choosing the right journal for your publication can be challenging. One reason for this is fraudulent publishers who try to charge you for services and a reputation that they do not provide, and who often disappear along with their publications. Even something that looks like a renowned journal from e.g. Elsevier/Springer can be a fake website. When looking for sources for your research, it can be also of value to see if the articles come from a trusted source. This webinar aims to help researchers recognise and avoid scientific fraud and misleading publications. It will cover the following topics: Predatory publishers - Hijacked (cloned) journals - Mirror journals – legal but confusing - Paper mills - Checking for retracted publications: PubPeer for Browser and Zotero - Tools helping to choose a journal: Think.Check.Submit, B!SON, oa.finder.
