Dear colleagues,
With the Open Science Retreat (OSR) the ZBW brings together international Open Science supporters from different stakeholder groups. Again, we are planning
two sessions where we will dive deeply into the topics that are of burning interest to us all.
We cordially invite you to join our seventh
Open Science Retreat that will be held virtually on 10 & 11 September 2024, 13:30-15:30 CET.
It is dedicated to the theme
Reproducible Research and Open Science.
Reproducing research results is an important activity for academic transparency and quality control, regardless of the outcome. In practice, however, factors such as insufficient availability of data and code as well as inadequate documentation of the methodology
hinder the reproduction of research results. Additionally, reproduction attempts and their results currently play a minor role in scholarly communication. Institutions and practices that foster Open Methodologies, FAIR Data and Open Code can offer solutions
to these challenges.
As we come together for this retreat, we aim to delve deeper into these issues through engaging discussions and collaborative sessions. The OSR will kick
off with insightful keynote statements of distinguished experts dealing with reproducible research – either in their own research or as practitioners, advocates, and policy-makers. The following interactive discussions shall focus on sharing experiences of
best practices and lessons learnt, and on identifying ways to solve the addressed challenges.
We look forward to your participation and insights as we collectively explore ways to overcome challenges and harness the opportunities in Reproducible Research and Open Science.

The Open Science Retreat is an interactive event. Participants are expected to commit to active contribution during the entire retreat. The number of
participants is limited (random selection, however, balanced with regard to geographical distribution and diversity aspects).
We are looking forward to an exciting #OpenScienceRetreat – be part of it!
Best,
Guido
