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.
