Here is a little report from our unconference on: "Complexities of reuse and synthesis in the open data landscape"
Thanks to @RoseTrappes for doing most of the organizing work & to our fantastic panellists @Ed_pheasant@antica_c & @BennoSimmons for sharing their insights 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
ALT The figure shows a screenshot of the website: https://www.sortee.org/blog/2023/11/14/2023_open_data_reuse_synthesis/, which is a blog post with the title: "COMPLEXITIES OF REUSE AND SYNTHESIS IN THE OPEN DATA LANDSCAPE". The text reads: Open data offers immense opportunities for ecologists and evolutionary biologists. The more good quality data are available, the more questions can be answered—and at broader spatial and temporal scales and at greater taxonomic generality. However, making use of open data is far from straightforward. At this year’s SORTEE conference, Rose Trappes and Alfredo Sánchez-Tójar co-organized a productive unconference to tackle this complex topic. For that, they invited three experienced panellists: Matt Grainger, Antica Culina and Benno Simmons, and held a discussion about the opportunities and challenges of data reuse and data synthesis in the fast-moving world of open data. We heard from researchers experienced in reusing and synthesising data, as well...
This week the @StudiesOpen team travels to Toronto for @ISHPSSB#ishpssb23, having organised no less than THREE symposia, details here: opensciencestudies.eu/ishpss… Come along & let us know whether & how this speaks to your own work! Among us are many excited ISH newcomers 😃🎉
Starting now, Values at Sea, an interdisciplinary marine workshop on humanities and social studies of marine biology, plus some actual marine biology. Looking forward to great talks! Organised by @ElisJones20 @joseacanada @SabinaLeonelli@_SWDTP@HPLSjournal#Egenis
Final talk by Alessandra Passariello. V cool HPS work on biodiversity before it got that name using the archives of @SznDohrn. Little desiccated plankton bags reveal global Cold War biology networks.
