A summary of Open Research Case Studies Across Disciplines

Résumé fourni par la source

Open Research takes on diverse forms, reflecting the unique challenges, practices, and opportunities within different disciplines. These variations underscore the importance of tailoring open research principles to the specific contexts of each field. The UK Reproducibility Network (UKRN) case studies provide a window into this diversity, highlighting how researchers from varied domains implement openness and transparency in their work.Openness and transparency are foundational to research integrity, as outlined in the UK Concordat to Support Research Integrity. They foster rigour, constructive scrutiny, accountability, and enable others to build on existing research. However, the practical application of these principles can vary significantly across disciplines, shaped by the methodologies, norms, and constraints of each field.This series of case studies, from genuine researchers (some anonymised), shows how trailblazing researchers navigate and exemplify open research practices in their respective areas. By illustrating these individual approaches, the aim is to foster a deeper understanding of the shared values and distinct challenges of open research across disciplines. Additionally, these examples offer valuable insights for those supporting open research through training, policy development, or incentives.
