📣 NEW PUBLIC MEETING ANNOUNCEMENT📣 📅 Jun 29 (8 am PST, 11 am EST, 4 pm BST, 5 pm CST). “Want to Make Science Work Better? Let’s Talk About How”. An overview and discussion around work looking at designing a new research paradigm. Register below: incentivizingopen.org/2026/06/want...

The full recording and meeting summary of our recent webinar, "Aligning Research Curation and Assessment," are now available. Thanks again to @katiecorker.bsky.social, Kathleen Shearer and @ludowaltman.bsky.social Waltman for their great, engaging talks! incentivizingopen.org/2026/04/alig...

Our next meeting tackles a big question: Can we turn reviews and curation into a reliable, trackable part of research evaluation? 📊 As research moves toward a modular, transparent future, it’s time to coordinate change through open assessment. Join us! 🚀 incentivizingopen.org/2026/03/alig...

Join us for the @icoropen.bsky.social webinar recapping the meeting, ‘From Tools to Adoption: A Path to Modular & Interactive Scientific Publishing’. Come find out how we could potentially pivot from the PDF & print based publishing... Registration details: incentivizingopen.org/2025/11/from...

📣 NEW PUBLIC WEBINAR: From Tools to Adoption: A Path to Modular and Interactive Scientific Publishing 📅 December 1st | 8 AM PDT / 11 AM EDT / 4PM GMT / 5PM CET Learn the outcomes from a recent meeting that focused on laying the foundation for machine-readable research publishing. Schedule:

Really inspired by the energy at the @openrxiv.bsky.social Meeting last week — feels like a turning point for preprints and open research. 🌌 Excited to see how this community is connecting data, code, and narrative into something more open, interactive, and alive. 🚀

ORFG Members celebrated @openrxiv.bsky.social at the @cziscience.bsky.social meeting! @gatesfoundation.bsky.social @hhmi.org @asapresearch.parkinsonsroadmap.org @schmidtsciences.bsky.social and others! We're excited about the future of preprints! #preprints #OpenScience #OpenFunders

The #OpenScience movement aims to transform how scientists work with each other and with society. These shifts pull in different directions — and “scientific cultures” helps make sense of the tension. NEW BLOG: Tensions in Open Science and Scientific Culture www.scholcommlab.ca/2025/10/21/t...

@icoropen.bsky.social launched Open Research Beacon, a hub for those in the open community to connect products, projects, and services. It's a great way to find out what's going on in "open" especially if you're a funder. #OpenScience #OpenResearch #OpenData #OpenCode www.orfg.org/news/2025/10...

Navigating the ever-growing number of #OpenResearch projects is tough. It's easy for projects to fly under the radar. Good news! We just launched ICOR's Open Research Beacon (ORB)- the searchable, central hub for the global open research movement! 1/2

NEW POST: NIH explores capping APCs: Let’s look at the evidence! We used data of NIH funded from 2025, and found that APCs for a few as 7% journals (or 6% of papers) would be fully covered by a $2K cap, 25% of journals (or 21% of papers) by a $3K cap. Read more! www.scholcommlab.ca/2025/09/03/n...

🚀 New study out! Together with @volkswagenstiftung.de, we’ve tested distributed peer review - a model where applicants also act as reviewers - to see how it compares with conventional panel review: researchonresearch.org/democratisin...

"Who controls the scientific literature?" New guest blog post by @fionahutton.bsky.social, Damian Pattison and @drpeterrodgers.bsky.social explores the @elife.bsky.social model and the challenges of driving change in scientific publishing. Read it here 👉 sfdora.org/2025/07/30/s...

Excellent work to show alignment with funder preprint policies! Keeping the work going in the #openscience and #openoutput space. #preprints #funderpolicies

Great to see our workshop report on the future of scientific publishing mentioned in @scholarlykitchen.bsky.social. We couldn't invite everyone, but this got the conversation going, we'd love to get feedback from all stakeholders and incorporate more diverse voices: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

My comment about open research and qualitative methods is out! I argue that open research needs to take seriously the notion that "rigour" looks different for different methods and can learn from qualitative traditions. It feels very apt to be at #QMIP2025 for this publication day rdcu.be/evEpk

Like the parable of the elephant in the dark, those of us working #scholcomms point to different issues depending on our role and what parts of the system we touch. What happens if we turn on lights and examine the complete picture? strategiesos.org/systematic-p... #openscience #openresearch

We’ve arrived here, and just in time for #Metascience2025. For those who don’t know us, our goals are to collect data on the impact of open research policies and practices and connect open research to improved collaboration and outcomes. Say hi to @mmmarksman.bsky.social in London to find out more!
