The Plan S Annual Review is out, featuring a commentary by Cameron Neylon on why #openresearch information matters for funders. We agree—& that's why we collaborate with funders and the community to make funding metadata openly available through our Grant Linking System. If Cameron's message resonates with you, we'd love to talk. https://www.coalition-s.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Plan-S-2024-annual-review.pdf

Here's my presentation from yesterday's open lecture! We discussed modern challenges to academic integrity: from #PaperMills to #data falsification in research articles

👉 http://dx.doi.org/10.13140/RG.2.2.20192.29443

We also explored the role of AI tools, like #ChatGPT, in detecting violations and tackling academic fraud, and dug into the question—What should university research managers do if their staff regularly buys articles from 'paper mills'? :ohno:

8. Of all the ways to improve #researchTransparency and increase research credibility and trustworthiness, sharing #openData is most valued by the public. #dentalresearchtransparency

7. In the recent #COVID19 pandemic, some people cited a lack of #researchTransparency as a reason for refusing health recommendations.
Scientists can improve transparency by registering protocols and sharing original data in a public repository.

Awesome discussion of publication ethics over at scholarly kitchen:

“Publishers have the final say in publication integrity … Yet even large enormously profitable publishing houses seem to invest little in the practicalities of resolving integrity concerns.”

#Introduciton
We're a data repository for #qualitativeData from (very broadly conceived) social science research.
We do a lot of research on the ethics of #dataSharing, data curation, and #researchTransparency (see https://qdr.syr.edu/qdr-publications )
We also produce a lot of #FLOSS software (https://github.com/QualitativeDataRepository )
