Speaker Aude Dieudié received her PhD from Duke University and specializes in research data management at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). She coordinates the data management plan support service at the EPFL and offers training on how to optimize research data management. In addition, she is involved in a Swiss national project (DLCM) focusing on providing sustainable and tangible solutions at a national level to implement research data life-cycle management.

Jan Krause works at the EPFL Library. He is involved in the research data management support service as well as in the national Data Lifecycle Management (DLCM) project. Jan has been trained as a scientist and has worked in a wetlab, an High Performance Computing group, on bibliographic similarity analysis.

EPFL Library is pleased to invite you to the: OPEN SCIENCE WORKSHOPS 2015

During the workshop, participants will discuss about Open Science evolutions, challenges and stakes. Partakers are encouraged to share their experience and to foster interactive exchanges. After a short theoretical introduction, participants will experiment software/applications through practical exercises.

The landscape of academic publishing has greatly evolved over the last decades. With the emergence of Open Access, the journal subscription-based traditional model in which authors grant publishers with exclusive rights on their works, is no longer the standard. Authors are now facing a plethora publishing models and must find the best trade-off in order to both ensure the optimal diffusion of their results and meet the funders' requirements. During this workshop, we will follow the journey of an academic publication while focusing on how you can get the most benefits from Open Access and data publication. We will explore and discuss such issues and challenges as how to preserve your author’s rights, how to find the best journals and avoid legal pitfalls, how to understand and meet the funders’ requirements regarding the deposit of your paper as well as the dissemination of your research data.
