[Open-science-nl] Negative Results Week

Tue Aug 8 20:11:56 UTC 2017

Dear all,

firstly I apologize for using this email-list. I will not send any other
emails, but I am looking to reach as many people interested in Open Science
and thought with this I might be hitting the bulls eye.

I am a writer at NRC Handelsblad and a microbiologist at the VU, I post my
science at www.reblab.org using an Open Kitchen Science approach. I have a
question for you:
In order to further promote Open Science I want to organize a "Negative
Results Week" or #NegResWeek. A social media campaign in which we try to
get as many scientists as possible (from all fields, all countries) to post
a Negative Result on an open science platform (BioRxiv, FigShare, Zenodo
etc) in a given week. Of course it is a legitimate question what a negative
result actually is, and whether it even exists, and these answers are
different depending on the field, but to me a negative result is when you
conclude "A has nothing to with B", "this protocol does not work", "this
theory cannot be proven". Perhaps the most negative side about a negative
result is when it remains unpublished. Perfectly sound science going to
waste because it is unfortunately not deemed worthy of time/effort/money to
publish.

I mentioned this a few times at meetings and luckily several health funds
(Reumafonds, Hartstichting, more to come) showed their interest. Like many
people, they too want science to become more transparent, more accessible,
and more efficient, which is in the interest of the patient and the general
public and ultimately also for science itself. They are putting together a
small budget to hopefully make this event happen. My job is to estimate how
much interest there is from the science community and see if we can get
some critical mass to make NegResWeek a success. So my first questions is:
would you like to participate in this Negative Results Week? And second:
would you be willing to make a short video, just using your smartphone,
with your name, institute, field and the words "I am participating in
Negative Results Week" with a few remarks explaining why. The goal is to
launch the initiative with a website full of researchers who will
participate, to entice others to join in as well and get their first taste
of Open Science.

I would really appreciate your feedback, your thoughts and hopefully, your
footage.

best regards,

Rosanne Hertzberger

>
> Dear all,
>
>
>
> Following our previous emails on Open Science and your enthusiasm for an
> informal meeting for researchers that are currently actively involved in
> Open Science, we have now planned a date and time for such a meeting:
>
>
>
> *Friday March 31, 14:00-17:00 Cobbenhagengebouw, location C 186 Ruth First
> room, **Tilburg University*
> <https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=tilburg%20university#map=17/51.56244/5.04679>
>
>
>
> During this meeting, we want to provide the opportunity to share your
> personal experiences, ideas and concrete initiatives around various aspects
> of Open Science, including (but certainly not limited to) preregistration,
> data/code sharing & re-use, preprints, reproducibility, open peer review
> models, societal outreach and assessment alternatives.
>
>
>
> Furthermore, we hope to discuss existing barriers and obstacles to a more
> widespread adoption of Open Science among researchers, and various steps
> that could be taken (either top-down or bottom-up) to help overcome
> these.
>
>
>
> Finally, we want to compare your ideas and action points for next steps to
> the goals and ambitions stated in the National Plan Open Science
> <http://www.openscience.nl> (signed by VSNU, KNAW, NWO, among other
> parties) and beyond. We can  see how these ideas and action points align or
> complement each other, and what your advice to NPOS would be in how to
> reach out to researchers in general.
>
>
>
> If there are any other points you feel are important to discuss at this
> meeting, please let us know. The programme is flexible, everybody gets the
> chance to take the floor, and we foremost want the meeting to be useful for
> you. Needless to say, please bring your devices if you wish to show or
> demonstrate something.
>
>
>
> We hope to see many of you in Tilburg on March 31. Please confirm your
> participation by replying to this email, so we can plan some coffee, tea,
> and snacks. If you know of any other Open Science enthusiasts who might be
> interested to attend, we encourage you to send on this invitation. The
> maximal number of people we can accommodate is 30.
