Open science isn't just for the rich. I wrote about building #REPOPSI – a repository of psychological instruments in Serbian – and what it taught me about doing #OpenScience with limited resources and lots of persistence. #PhDSky doi.org/10.1038/d415...
I haven't done an interview since elementary school, hope I've improved! 😄 Thanks to GÉANT geant.org for inviting me to share my #OpenScience journey in the latest CONNECT Magazine, highlighting the amazing communities that made a difference: LIRA Lab @researchdataall.bsky.social @abrir.bsky.social
