On Monday July 21st, the OSC held its Annual Members’ Meeting 🤝 We reflected, connected, and planned ahead with our incredible community.

📢 One of the highlights was welcoming the Head of Helmholtz Open Science Office: Dr. Mathijs Vleugel
( @HelmholtzOpenScienceOffice)
It was inspiring to exchange ideas and explore the shared challenges and opportunities we face in advancing open science 🌐

We ended the meeting by electing our new Scientific Board: 👏
- Prof. Dr. Anna Kümpel (Communication)
- Dr. Sabine Hoffmann (Head of Statistical Consulting Laboratory StaBLab)
- Prof. Dr. Nikolaus Plesnila (Neuroscience)
- Dr. Tobias Straub (Head of the Core Facility Bioinformatics)
- Prof. Dr. Alexander Wuttke (Politics)

✨ We are proud to have a team of passionate individuals committed to driving our vision forward. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has volunteered their time and energy to support our work until now and into the future!

🚀 Looking ahead, we are excited to announce that new projects are on the horizon, and we can’t wait to share them with the broader community.

🎉Here’s to a more open, collaborative, and inclusive future for science!
