Open Science is a new research paradigm facing many challenges, mainly the ingrained research habits accompanied by non-incentive institutional and funder reward systems, the lack of embedded tools and services, the connection to non-academic communities.
A three day event completely dedicated to research and innovation will take place in Brussels on 24-26 September 2019. The event contains a Policy Conference, an Innovation Europe Hub and the exhibition "Science is wonderful".
As you all know, ICEDIG is designing certain elements of the DiSSCo research infrastructure. Now, DiSSCo is looking to fill a scientific and a technical advisory boards DiSSCo, the new world-class Research Infrastructure for natural science collections is looking to fill two advisory boards!
One of the main challenges for ICEDIG is to find workable methods for mass digitisation. In the respective Work Package, a series of deliverables documents the state of the art in different methodologies. The first two of these deliverables have recently be published on our website.
The third ICEDIG all hands meeting was hosted in Helsinki at LUOMUS, the Finnish Museum of Natural History. ICEDIG work package leaders and project contributors gathered for four days of intensive work meetings, brainstorming sessions and workshops.
