Open Science is a toolkit for cultivating excellence in research. It does that by restoring research to its roots: #OpenScience means conducting research according to its own best-practice standards strategiesos.org/about/ #openaccess #openresearch

How do we improve scholarly communications? Here are two simple strategies: remove incentives to delay communication and normalize communicating science in existing forms and formats. Read more ➡️ strategiesos.org #openscience #openaccess #scholcomms #scholcomm

The outdated norms of scholarly communications are stifling scientific discovery. Together, we can change that. strategiesos.org #scholcomm #scholcomms #opendata #openaccess #researchintegrity #openscience

We'll be there! Looking forward to discussing strategies for incentivizing openness and honoring all contributions to scholarly research! See you next month... #openscience #openaccess

NEW POST: NIH explores capping APCs: Let’s look at the evidence! We used data of NIH funded from 2025, and found that APCs for a few as 7% journals (or 6% of papers) would be fully covered by a $2K cap, 25% of journals (or 21% of papers) by a $3K cap. Read more! www.scholcommlab.ca/2025/09/03/n...
