In recent times, publications across all fields of research have come under scrutinity for a variety of reasons:
Low reproducibility of data, intransparency on the process of how initial hypotheses are translated to scientific findings, and even fraudulent manipulation of data are symptoms of the current academic culture that is driven by the pressure to publish more, faster, and more spectacular data.
Open Science is a holistic approach to improve the quality standards of research with a publication culture governed by transparency and accessibility of data. At the NOS Journal, we are always reflecting our approach towards Open Science - Below, you can find our thoughts on Open Science, the Editorial Board’s recommendations of useful external ressources (coming soon), and a quiz to test your knowledge on Open Science (coming soon)!
