Open for you! 4EU+ Open Science Webinars and workshops
Open science is transforming the academic world. In response, the 4EU+ training programme meets the growing demand for transparency, reproducibility, and collaboration by exploring a broad range of practices. Come explore the basics of open science - open peer review, FAIR and open data, open software, and citizen science - in our introductory webinars followed by six specialized workshops.
Research assessment has traditionally relied on quantitative citation-based indicators. However, these bibliometric approaches have revealed significant limitations and biases. This lecture will introduce the foundations of bibliometrics and explore current reforms in research assessment. We will examine the principles of responsible research evaluation, emerging alternatives to citation metrics, and the links between open science practices and evolving assessment frameworks.
