Sabina Leonelli held a keynote presentation “Human-Centric Open Science”, at the First Tri-partite meeting of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) at the invitation of the Belgian EU presidency (Brussels, 16 April 2024). The EOSC newspage summarized Sabina’ talk in its report, calling it thought-provoking.

Paola Castaño will be presenting at the NASA Analysis Working Group Symposium on Thursday (May 2): https://osdr.nasa.gov/bio/news/articles/2024-awg-symposium/2024-awg-symposium.html. This free virtual event is open to the public (with registration), around the theme of “Bridging space biology and advanced technologies”. (Note times are PST, i.e., 8h behind UK time).

The PHIL_OS project was featured in April’s instalment of the Online Seminars on Open Science hosted by the Italian Reproducibility Network. Rose Trappes talked to PhD students and interested researchers about the consequences of open science for epistemic diversity and what lessons the project is drawing for open science practices and policy. The talk should be available soon on YouTube, on https://www.youtube.com/@italianrepro

This month Rose Trappes will be presenting at the workshop “Subjects, Power, and Knowledge”, held at Stanford University on the 15th and 16th of March in honour of the retirement of Helen Longino. Rose will present her work exploring Longino’s epistemic pluralism about behaviour.

On 23rd February, Fotis Tsiroukis and Rose Trappes will give a talk in Exeter u3a’s University Liaison lecture series. Fotis and Rose will discuss the open science movement, and introduce u3a members to the PHIL_OS project.

PHIL_OS is featured in the latest issue of the Newsletter of the Society for Philosophy of Science in Practice (SPSP), in a piece written by our own Emma Cavazzoni and Rose Trappes.

On November 19th, Paola Castaño participated and co-organized the panel “Building Open Science Communities in Space Biology” at the American Society of Gravitational and Space Research annual meeting in Washington, DC. The panel was a collaboration between PHIL_OS and the NASA Open Science Data Repository.

Rose Trappes published a post on the SORTEE blog. Together with collaborators in ecology and conservation biology, Rose discusses what needs to change in order to address the challenges and maximise the opportunities of reusing open data in ecology.

On 17 October, Rose Trappes will hold a panel discussion at the online conference of the Society for Open, Reliable, and Transparent Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (SORTEE). The panel is called “Navigating the complexities of reuse and synthesis in the open data landscape”, co-organised with Alfredo Sánchez-Tójar from Bielefeld University.
