Invitation to Open Science Week 2024: Three days of open science and innovation
From 21 to 23 October 2024, Open Science Week 2024 will take place through online conferences on the Zoom platform. Organized by the Open Science Working Group of the Association of University Libraries of the Czech Republic, this three-day event brings a range of interesting lectures, discussions and practical demonstrations focused on Open Access, open data and other open science practices to help you better navigate the world of open science and meet the requirements of grant agencies. In addition to the theoretical lectures, you can look forward to practical demonstrations and sharing experiences by experts from different institutions who will share their knowledge in open publishing, repositories and data management.
Speakers from EOSC CZ
EOSC CZ representatives will present several important topics related to data governance and open publishing.
