  1. Science Collect Analyse Publish Write Ideal simplified research life-cycle Review

    Summarise Reproduce Re-analyse (meta-analysis) Share data Open repository Share code open/free tools Collaborative tools Citation manager Pre-prints Open Access
  2. Why embrace Open Practices? - Sponsors/journals require data (standard in

    molecular) - Allows reproducibility (data and/or methods) - Technology (less cumbersome) is becoming available - Enhanced visibility/transparency - Multiple citable outcomes: data, code, manuscript, etc.
  3. Barriers for open practices? - Lack of interest/knowledge (supplemental rarely

    posted) - Low incentive/pressure - that may change! - Takes (huge) time and effort - Document data and code - Versioning code and maintaining - FOBS - Fear of being scooped? - Not valued/taught in our graduate programs
  4. Open Plant Pathology (OPP) fosters a diverse community culture that

    values open, transparent and reproducible research using shared data and reusable software Vision and mission
  5. By creating a social network with a welcoming and sharing

    scientific community openplantpathology.slack.com Expanding network Sharing knowledge Brainstorming Building capacity (Hopefully!) more transparent, reproducible, efficient and reliable Plant Pathology research Social Workspace 1.
