How a Community of Practice can support your research

Описание: This is a recording of a webinar that took place on the 14th of May 2025. This webinar is organized by the Open Science team at SciLifeLab Data Centre.

Event description:
What role does community play in advancing open science? Join us for a webinar exploring how Communities of Practice (CoPs) can support researchers in implementing open science and integrate the FAIR principles into their work, and thereby enhance the visibility, reproducibility, and impact of their research.

This session will highlight real-world examples of successful Communities of Practice and the value they bring to researchers and institutions alike. We will also share how these stories have inspired us at SciLifeLab to plan our own Community of Practice, with the goal of fostering a more collaborative, open, and supportive research culture.

Featuring insights from Josh Gottesman (Michael J. Fox Foundation), Bogdana-Raluca Huma (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam & Community of Practice for Open Naturally Occurring Data), and Mirjam Walpot (SciLifeLab Data Centre; International Network of Open Science & Scholarship Communities).

Presenters:
Bogdana Huma: Associate Professor of Language and Communication, Vrije University Amsterdam
Josh Gottesman: Community Director, Michael J. Fox Foundation
Mirjam Walpot: SciLifeLab Data Centre; Board Member – International Network of Open Science & Scholarship Communities (INOSC)
Suné Joubert: Project Coordinator (Open Science Communities and Metrics), SciLifeLab
