Open science practices

[Leila]

Hi all,

I know that @anton-akhmerov and @gsteele13 are leading on applying and reinforcing open science practices , which I think it is very necessary. I was wondering if you can open a channel about questions on that?, Like how to document software properly to ensure reproducibility , learn by good examples,etc . Also about nice documentation techniques using markdown , Jupyterbooks , etc?

what do you think?

Best,

Leila

Always up for discussing open science! Not sure about a separate category at this point, since a lot of questions fit well also into programming.

I propose to start with questions and make a category later, once the scope becomes clear.

Great! Yes , I agree.

Thanks!

Let’s indeed start with a thread and we can split off into a category if we get too big

Following Anton’s advice below, I forked this into a new topic:

Data management and documentation

Hi all, I just wanted to share here some info about the data management and documentation tools we’ve been working with the the SteeleLab (triggered by a question by @Leila) Here, you can find a diagram I wrote up recently about the ICT infrastructure we use in my group for ensuring uniform data integrity and access: [SteeleLab ICT] I am happy to describe a bit more about how it works (it is based on a Synology rack station that I bought and administer myself personally). Also, I’ve been wo…

Probably it would indeed make sense to move this to a separate topic, and only leave a note here.

I created #academia; most open science questions fit there, I think.
