Zielgruppe: Alle interessierten Mitarbeitenden des Forschungszentrums Jülich.
Inhalte: Open Science bezeichnet einen offenen Informationsaustausch in der Wissenschaft. Um dies umzusetzen, müssen die Themen Open Access, Open Data und Open Source miteinander vernetzt werden. Welche Initiativen und Projekte es am Campus dazu gibt und was in der Zukunft geplant ist, erfahren Sie an unserem Infostand im Seecasino des Forschungszentrums Jülich.
14:00 – 14:45 Uhr: Everything you always wanted to know about Open Access but were afraid to ask (Webinar auf Englisch)
Target group: All employees who are interested in the topic.
Content: This introduction to open access (OA) will give you an overview over of OA, what kinds of OA there are, and what OA licenses exist. You will also learn how to find suitable OA journals for your papers and the pitfalls that should be avoided when looking for a publication outlet.
Speaker: Linda McGrath (ZB, FZJ)
External parties who are interested in participating in this event should contact us directly. We will email you the link to the webinar the day before it takes place. Contact: t.arndt@fz-juelich.de
15:00 – 15:45 Uhr: Heliocentric Model of Open Science Documentation (Webinar auf Englisch)
Target group: This talk is intended for researchers who are curious but unsure about what open science is and why it matters, and who may also be interested but hesitant about adopting open science practices.
Content: When we ask people what open science is, we typically receive a broad variety of responses, ranging from “it’s about making sure people can read your papers for free (open access)” to “you have to make your data available (RDM)” to “that’s really complicated to describe”. The truth is that open science is all of these things and more, but it is not necessarily complicated.
In this talk, we present a model that clearly and quickly explains the goals of the open science movement in contrast to the current scientific dissemination system. The model also describes concrete incentives for participation, ranging from knowledge permanence to skills and labour recognition.

JARA Coffee Lectures online
Postponed +++ 14:00 – 15:30 Uhr: Start der Open Science Speaker Series – Open science saves lives – Lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic (Lecture auf Englisch) +++ Postponed
Target group: All employees who are interested in the topic, particularly researchers and scientific managers.
Content: Over the last decade, open science principles have been successfully advocated and have been slowly adopted in different research communities. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many publishers and researchers have sped up their adoption of open science practices, sometimes embracing them fully and sometimes partially or in a sub-optimal manner.
In this lecture, concerns will be expressed about the violation of some of the open science principles and its potential impact on the quality of research output. Evidence will be provided of the misuses of these principles at different stages of the scientific process. A wider adoption of open science practices will be called for in the hope that this will encourage a broader endorsement of open science principles and serve as a reminder that science should always be a rigorous process, reliable and transparent, especially in the context of a pandemic where research findings were translated into practice even more rapidly.
Speaker: Dr. Lonni Besançon (Linköping University)
Jülich Open Science Speaker Series: Forschungszentrum Jülich’s Central Library (ZB) invites all scientists at Jülich, Helmholtz and our international guests to join the conversation on current developments in Open Science. Every two weeks, the series will invite a prominent member of the global community to discuss their efforts to advance the goals of open science. The series will use a hybrid format, where our speakers will be telecast to a live audience as well as via Zoom. This format was selected to minimize barriers to participation. We look forward to seeing you there!
The speaker series takes place at Forschungszentrum Jülich’s Central Library. You can also attend online via Zoom. The lectures will be recorded and made public afterwards.
Dear participants, unfortunately, we need to postpone the lecture due to health issues. It will be rescheduled soon.

10:00 – 10:45 Uhr: How to “unHIDE” and improve the metadata landscape of research in Helmholtz – Towards more sustainable science through FAIR metadata (Webinar auf Englisch)
Target group: All employees who are interested in the topic. Most useful for people who create metadata somewhere.
Content: Research across the Helmholtz Association is based on inter- and multidisciplinary collaborations across its 18 centres and beyond. However, the (meta)data generated through Helmholtz research and operations is typically siloed within institutional infrastructures and often within individual teams. It is stored in these infrastructures through various channels by stakeholders with a wide range of various roles. As a result, the wealth of Helmholtz’s (meta)data is stored in a distributed and incoherent manner, with varying quality. This makes it hard to find and used to its full potential by scientists, managers, strategists, and policy makers.
To address this challenge, the Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC) launched the unified Helmholtz Information and Data Exchange (unHIDE) project in 2022. UnHIDE creates a lightweight and sustainable interoperability layer to interlink data infrastructures; and increase visibility and access to the Helmholtz Association’s (meta)data and information assets. Using proven and globally adopted knowledge graph technology, we are developing a comprehensive association-wide knowledge graph (KG), the “Helmholtz-KG”: a solution to connect (meta)data, information, and knowledge.
A first prototype of the Helmholtz KG was released in April 2023. This includes a comprehensive web frontend for manual search of resources [1], a stable and documented [2] backend with a tested data ingestion and integration pipeline, and machine accessible endpoints [3].
In this talk, we present an overview of the Helmholtz metadata ecosystem, we describe the first release of the Helmholtz KG, how it integrates metadata from heterogeneous sources and increases visibility and findability. Furthermore, we show how more data providers will be connected. We will illustrate the lessons learned during our development process and give an outlook into the next steps and future release versions of the KG. We will also discuss how such a graph can help improve metadata at the source in the future.

14:00 – 14:45 Uhr: Do I really need a licence for my code? (Webinar auf Englisch)
Target group: All employees who are interested in the topic.
Content: Scientists, research software engineers, science officers, admin staff, and even lawyers are sometimes baffled by the seemingly complex structures offered by software licences and their compliance. Contributor licence agreements, software and IP clauses in cooperation agreements and other contracts often kill any interest in the topic that might have survived the first contact with its legal implementation.
This complexity is mostly unnecessary and can be reduced to a few key questions that should be answered before beginning a project. In this talk, these issues will be highlighted in regard to the following points:
- Reasons for early consideration of licence implementation within a software project
- Guide for choosing a software licence
- How to deal with external contributions
- Internal contract compliance versus external licence
- Open source versus proprietary
- Open source versus commercial exploitation

15:00 – 15:45 Uhr: Jülich RDM Challenges (Webinar auf Englisch)
Target group: All employees who are interested in RDM, especially researchers with data management tasks and/or project management tasks. Also, colleagues who contribute (technical) infrastructure or software to RDM.
Content: Sometimes small (but essential) bits and pieces are missing to effectively integrate and automate data management in your research workflow. Maybe your electronic lab notebook doesn’t work well; maybe data needs to be manually prepared for each research step; maybe metadata need to be added manually to measurements … The RDM Challenge Projects at Jülich are an instrument to tackle such hurdles with financial support from the Board of Directors and also with know-how from RDM experts on campus.
In the bigger picture, the challenges also involve an element of mutual support and exchange within the community of colleagues with an interest in RDM at Jülich. A report from each challenge is available on the RDM intranet portal and the general approach is one of "community over commercialization".

14:00 – 14:45 Uhr: The Pragmatics of Helio - Science Reading and Problem Arcs (Webinar auf Englisch)
Target group: This talk is all intended for researchers who are curious but unsure about what open science is and why it matters, and who may also be interested but hesitant about adopting open science practices.
Content: The Heliocentric Model of Open Science Documentation quickly and clearly describes what open science is all about and how it differs from the current system. This is useful, but the real questions involve the pragmatics of adopting open science as the paradigm for scientific practice. In this talk, we discuss implementation of the two primary functions of an open scientific knowledge base: comprehension and documentation.
For comprehension, we discuss science reading as evidence-based pedagogy developed specifically to teach you how to reconstruct scientific processes from available documentation. For documentation, we introduce the concept of problem arcs as a general structuring mechanism, inherent to human cognition, to accurately and usefully document the problem solving and decision making involved in completing scientific processes.

16:00 – 16:45 Uhr: Do People write about Software? – JuSER-based RSE Publication Monitor (Webinar auf Englisch)
Target group: Everybody interested in how many publications mention research software.
Content: The RSE Publication Monitor is an online tool to show how much and in which context people at FZJ write about software. For this, the RSE Publication Monitor queries the JuSER database to find publications that mention certain keywords related to software. Based on this information, it is then possible to browse through correlations of keywords mentioned in these publications, and also to find out how often different keywords are used in publications from different institutes. This tool can be easily extended to cover other keywords of interest and everyone is encouraged to design their own analysis. The code for this tool is publicly available and we are always open for collaborations and further ideas.

14:00 – 14:45 Uhr: A new hub for literature related to Open Science – The Jülich Open Science Collection (JuOSC) (Webinar auf Englisch)
Target group: All employees who are interested in the topic, particularly researchers and scientific managers.
Content: This presentation will introduce the Jülich Open Science Collection (JuOSC) as a hub for all literature related to open science as a discipline. The collection will include traditional publication outputs (books and papers) as well as grey literature (blog posts, preprints, theses, etc.) and ephemera (twitter threads, podcasts, etc.).
As the collection is specifically for open science as a discipline, by definition all materials it contains will be freely available to everyone at no cost, as well as available on demand. As such, we are ensuring that all materials are either open access or available through a cc-by license. To ensure access on demand, copies of all materials will be stored on the JuSER infrastructure at Jülich. In the near future, we will also construct mirrors at Zenodo and at the Internet Archive.
The collection can be visited here:
