Thinking of making the switch to open science? 🔁 The Switch to Open Program (SwOP) is an ongoing program at the OSC to support research groups who want to switch to open science practices. Here’s how your research group can benefit from this program:

🚧 There are many barriers to implementing open research practices. In Jan 2025, the OSC surveyed researchers at the Biomedical Center (BMC) of LMU to determine some ways we can get over these hurdles. Here's what we found:

Open Science in Action!
At PsyFaKo 2025 in Munich, @sarahvongrebmer.bsky.social & @epizyklen.bsky.social presented the LMU Open Science Center. Together with students, we busted widely spread Open Science myths in a group discussion.

Two female organisers of the Open Science Summer School, Dr. Sarah von Grebmer in a dark green top and black pants and Dr. Malika Ihle in a white top and dark blue pants, stand in front of the green and white Open Science Center sign. Behind the sign is a brown wall to its right and a black door to its left. Male speaker, Prof. Dr. Felix Schoenbrodt, wearing glasses, a dark blue shirt, and brown pants stands behind a laptop near a mic at the front of the room with a projected screen behind him explaining data as forking paths. Items such as name tags are seen on the table at the front of the room and the backs of participants’ heads are seen at the bottom of the picture.

Man (Felix Schönbrodt) and woman (Malika Ihle), both with curly hair, glasses and blue shirts, stand beside a laptop and a conference camera at the front of a lecture room giving a presentation. A slide on "Open Access" is projected behind them. The back of an audience member’s head is visible. A chalkboard with the words "Open Science Rocks" written in white chalk with a smiley face drawn next to it. Complex mathematical equations left from lectures prior to the event are slightly visible on the chalkboard above it.

These skills and themes will be applied to an agile course on Research Data Management 📊.

Workshops like this help us continuously improve how we teach Open Science and empower researchers through better learning design.

Female speaker, Reema Gupta in a multi colored, patterned blouse and black pants, stands next to male speaker, Prof. Dr. Felix Schoenbrodt wearing a dark blue shirt and brown pants, in front of the green and white Open Science Center sign. Behind the sign is a brown wall to its right and a black door to its left. The LMU logo is visible on the top-left corner of the sign. Speaker Reema Gupta and facilitator Laura Meiser are seen at the front of the room. A projected screen shows words related to “meta-data” such as description of data, information about data, data about data. A projector is visible in the top-left corner. Items on a surface and the back of a female participant’s head are visible at the bottom of the image.

💡Mention of esp. interesting booths: siibra-explorer booth, BIDS booth, Knowledge and Data services booth, & the Modeling and Simulation booth.

Reema’s top highlight was finally meeting the people behind the tools she works with every day!
