🚨 @abrir.bsky.social 🚨

Open science isn't just for the rich. I wrote about building #REPOPSI – a repository of psychological instruments in Serbian – and what it taught me about doing #OpenScience with limited resources and lots of persistence. #PhDSky doi.org/10.1038/d415...

I haven't done an interview since elementary school, hope I've improved! 😄 Thanks to GÉANT geant.org for inviting me to share my #OpenScience journey in the latest CONNECT Magazine, highlighting the amazing communities that made a difference: LIRA Lab @researchdataall.bsky.social @abrir.bsky.social

@abrir.bsky.social, check this research out!

Thank you!

@abrir.bsky.social is constantly pushing ahead to seek avenues and opening doors of opportunities for underrepresented psych researchers to participate in global psych research! Check out abrirpsy.org to learn more about their initiatives!

Just since the start of the year, we've submitted two grant applications with ABRIR! No matter the outcome, I'm so proud of the work we're doing. 😊 🌍 @abrir.bsky.social #OpenScience

Thank you all for being a part of @abrir.bsky.social's panel session at @btscon.bsky.social yesterday! It was great meeting you all & we hope you've been inspired with the efforts that ABRIR has been working on so far to bridge the gap between the Global South & the Global North in psych research 🌏

Thanks for the panel recap, Brendan! As @nscorralfrias.bsky.social pointed out: #OPENSCIENCE & BIG TEAM SCIENCE ISN'T GOING TO LOOK THE SAME EVERYWHERE So, Global North, Ask us what we need Be open to feedback Get familiar with our initiatives, no 🚁science @abrir.bsky.social @btscon.bsky.social

We had fantastic panel session at @BigTeamSciCon! 🤩 Thanks for joining us as we shared insights on Global South representation in #BigTeamScience. We hope these talks will continue to open minds and open doors for all psychological researchers in the spirit of #openscience 🌐

We were at @btscon.bsky.social!

Last month, @abrir.bsky.social & the Malaysia Educational Psychology Society worked together to organise a workshop on #OpenScience & #BigTeamScience. Now anyone can revisit the moment here on YouTube! 📺 youtube.com/watch?v=RJnj... Check out the workshop materials here➡️ zenodo.org/records/1332...
