Open Science in the Wild

A view from the UCL Office for Open Science & Scholarship

Abstract


This talk uses real-world case studies to explore where and how open research can address global challenges and make a difference in the lives of everyday people worldwide. We explore these challenges through the work of UCL’s Office for Open Science and Scholarship and discuss how it is approaching support for similar projects and the expansion of the institution’s achievements in Open Science across the board.
