Researchers, funders, institutions and other stakeholders have the power to reshape #scholcomms to drive more impactful, rapid, reproducible, and cost-effective science. But only if we work together. #scisky #openaccess #openscience #scholcomm

Public trust in science increases when underlying data are shared. But often, data availability requests go nowhere.

How can we create the kind of high-quality, discoverable, metadata rich data lakes we need to enable reuse and spur discovery?

Scholarly communication doesn’t work well enough for enough stakeholders. But why is that, exactly? What are the root causes? How do these point to solutions?

Whether subscription or APC-funded, we all know high impact journals can be expensive. But the true cost of incentivizing publication in these elite venues is more than simply monetary. It impacts how research is conducted. #scholcomm #openscience #openaccess #scisky

Did you know: “Shopping” research articles from journal to journal can take months and forces researchers to spend hours completing similar submission forms and making cosmetic changes.

Systematic problems require large scale systematic solutions: we need convergence - Stratos Scholarly communication doesn’t work well enough for enough stakeholders. But why is that, exactly? What are the root causes? How do these point to solutions?

Like the parable of the elephant in the dark, those of us working #scholcomms point to different issues depending on our role and what parts of the system we touch.

What happens if we turn on lights and examine the complete picture?

We’ve arrived here, and just in time for #Metascience2025. For those who don’t know us, our goals are to collect data on the impact of open research policies and practices and connect open research to improved collaboration and outcomes. Say hi to @mmmarksman.bsky.social in London to find out more!

There’s been an increase in concerns about research integrity in the past few years. Is science getting worse, or are long-standing issues simply more visible due to the increased transparency that comes with #OpenScience?
