Open science is a movement that advocates for the accessibility and reusability of scientific knowledge. It promotes international and interdisciplinary collaboration and information sharing among scientists, makes knowledge accessible to all, increases the impact of science on society, and builds a more transparent and inclusive culture of science.
The conference is intended for:
- Researchers and scientists;
- Members of academic institutions;
- Academic libraries’ staff;
- Experts on scientific research data;
- Policy makers;
- Doctoral and other students;
- Anyone interested in learning more about open science practices and prospects.
Conference presentations will be delivered by speakers from Lithuania and other European countries. The event is an excellent opportunity to learn about the latest achievements and challenges in open science and to establish professional contacts with Lithuanian and foreign experts. Besides that, the winners of the Vilnius University awards for contributions to open science will be announced during the conference.
We encourage you not only to listen to the presentations, but also to actively participate in discussions, ask questions, and share your experiences and insights about the prospects of open science!
