Noyam Journals in Accra, Ghana, has been recognised for the completeness of its metadata with a Crossref Metadata Award.
From our interview with Naa Kai Amanor-Mfoafo of Noyam Journals:
"Good metadata has made a real difference for our organisation. It has helped increase the visibility and discoverability of our journal articles."
The LMU Open Science Center participated in the AI-Hub@LMU’s annual flagship event “KI-Symposium 2025” on November 10, 2025 💡 We presented a booth that invited visitors to reflect on key questions about the intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) 🤖 and Open Science 🔍
Our booth encouraged dialogue around AI and how it affects Research Quality, Reproducible Research, and FAIR Data Sharing. Visitors were also interested in the following topics:
⚖️ Can we balance openness and large amounts of new information?
A participant expressed concern that Open Science would open the floodgates to an overwhelming amount of materials being shared. An important focus of open science should then be increasing the share of reliable science, emphasizing quality over quantity.
🧠 How can openness help us confront human biases?
Another discussion centered around human biases, such as the unconscious bias to interpret data in ways that confirm one’s hypothesis, and how Open Science tries to mitigate these biases.
🔒 Where do we draw the line between openness and privacy?
A discussion on ethics in AI brought up the challenging issue of sharing health data openly while protecting patient privacy. A question was raised about whether AI possesses agency and then what would concepts like responsibility and accountability for AI look like.
By sparking these conversations, we set out to explore how openness and AI can evolve together 🌍

@da5nsy We're not based in the UK, but we run ReproducibiliTea in the HumaniTeas (https://ub.uni-koeln.de/en/courses-consultations/reproducibilitea-in-the-humaniteas) at the University of Cologne in Germany. I'm curious to hear about other initiatives in this area!

"It's a fundamental shift in how scholarly discussions can work. When you start a discussion on Sciety, that conversation becomes part of the Fediverse, discoverable and participatory for researchers on our preprint focussed bonfire instance (discussions.sciety.org) and, if you choose, other Bonfire instances, Mastodon, any platform that speaks the ActivityPub protocol and Bluesky (via bridging functionality).

Want to ensure your research data doesn’t contain errors and can be understood by other users and your future self? 🗂️ This tutorial by the LMU Open Science Center can show you how to document and validate your research data in R, making your research data more reusable.
The Tutorial of the Day: Data Documentation and Validation using R 📑 https://lmu-osc.github.io/data-documentation-validation-R/
Data documentation such as data dictionaries provides the contextual data needed to understand, navigate, and reuse research data whereas data validation involves verifying the collected data before it’s used. By documenting and validating your data, you can:
✔️ Create clear and comprehensive data dictionaries
✔️ Use summary statistics to spot data quality issues
✔️ Validate your data to catch errors before analysis
✔️ Produce professional reports that integrate documentation and analysis
Check out this tutorial to start making your research data more understandable and shareable! 💡
