OSC awarded for its competence building activities
by LMU Open Science Center News July 15, 2024

July 15, 2024

Dear LMU Open Science Center supporters, On July 3, the OSC has received the Open Access Enter-Award in the category "Competence Building". This is a great recognition of our work and dedication to promoting open science. The Open Access Enter-Award, supported by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the iRights Lab, recognizes outstanding commitment and dedication to open access. At the award ceremony, our student assistant, Gracia Prüm, introduced the OSC to the audience and talked about our two upcoming programs "Switch-to-Open" and "Train-the-Trainer" which aim to foster a cultural shift at our institution towards open and reproducible science. Another important aspect which has been highlighted is a structural change of incentives for good research practices, for example by reforming the criteria of research assessment. We thank the iRights Lab and the Federal Ministry of Education and Research for supporting such an important topic and organising this event. It is a great sign to recognise and appreciate the engagement and contribution of different people in this field. We're excited to build on this success and look forward to all upcoming projects.

June 27, 2024

Dear reproducible data visualization enthusiasts Angelika Stefan and Lena Schiestel of the LMU Open Science Initiative Psychology are inviting you all, regardless of your discipline, to an in person workshop by Maximilian Frank on how to create interactive graphics with R and Plotly. Register now! Best wishes Malika ---- Creating interactive graphics with R and Plotly Data visualization can support the effective communication of research findings. With the help of modern data visualization techniques, it is even possible to create dynamic graphics that your readers can interact with! In this workshop, we will explore how the Plotly package in R can transform traditional research outputs into dynamic, interactive graphics that foster greater engagement and understanding. By integrating Plotly's capabilities into your research dissemination practices, you can enhance the accessibility and impact of your findings. This session is designed for researchers across all disciplines who are interested in learning new advanced visualization techniques. If you've ever been frustrated that a graphic couldn't communicate what you wanted it to, this workshop is for you. The workshop will be conducted in R, other programming languages are welcomed as Plotly can also be used in a Python environment but not covered by the workshop itself. Date: 11.07.2024 Time: 16:00-18:00 Place: Leopoldstraße 13, room 3322 Language: English as a default, German if all attendees agree to it Register now on https://www.pretix.osc.lmu.de/lmu-osc/plotly-1/ !

ask your open science questions in the LMU chat OSC workspace on Matrix/Element
by LMU Open Science Center News June 17, 2024

June 17, 2024

Dear LMU members of our open science community LMU chat is migrating from rocket chat to matrix (using the 'element' app) and so is our LMU Open Science Center workspace! You can follow the detailed instructions to install your desktop and phone apps to be able to chat with anybody from the LMU: https://www.lmu.de/en/about-lmu/structure/central-university-administration… The direct invitation to our workspace is here: https://matrix.to/#/#lmu-open-science-center:matrix.lmu.de There are two main channels in this workspace. * welcome-and-introduction: please introduce yourself here to establish connections with like-minded people! * community-questions-and-announcements: ask your open science related questions or post announcements of open science related events or opportunities here! In the past, we had questions on e.g. preregistration of pilot study, justification of transparent changes in a preregistration, preregistration for qualitative research, registered report process, predatory journals, open access funds, version control with GitLab, course on unit testing, course on Python, ect. Posting your questions there, instead of emailing them to me, allows me but also others to answer you and all of us to benefit from each other's answers! We also have extra channels for * reproducibilitea: to suggest articles to read at the journal club, presenters to invite, or to follow up with the discussions that took place during a session * hacky-hour: to share resources discussed in a session or define the topics of future sessions * carpentries: for software/data/library carpentries instructors and helpers to exchange teaching tips, request help, and organise the logistics of workshops Looking forward to engage with you there!
