Open Science Ambassador Network

Open Science

What is the Arqus Open Science Ambassador Network?

The Arqus Open Science Ambassador Network is a joint expert network of Open Science enthusiasts, who are working together in order to promote Open Science, share best practices in their specific scientific disciplines and give advice when needed. Its members are engaged in several Open Science topics and acting as intermediaries between researchers, universities and the alliance.Their drivers for promoting Open Science lie primarily in the belief in the idea of openness and enabling free access to academic knowledge. This includes ensuring the reproducibility of research results, improving research processes and fostering cooperation, interdisciplinary research and exchange between different disciplines.

Get in touch with any Ambassador if you need advice or with Pablo García if you want to join the Ambassadors’ Network. Find emails below.
