"Citizen science needs radical transparency: open, standardized reporting of how projects are run, who is contributing and how they're funded" says Dr Jack Nunn Peer-reviewed article: doi.org/10.1371/jour... #CitizenScience #Transparency #Data #AI #Science
This video explores how AI can expand the scope and possibility of what can be achieved in citizen science. It also highlights why keeping people at the centre matters for human health and planetary health. Based on the paper: https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0331161 #worldebhcday
