As part of Trieste Next, on 28 September in Trieste, the NODC organised a conference on Open Science entitled ‘Meet and co-create. A journey into Open Science’.
Trieste Next is the festival of scientific research; its 13th edition took place from 27 to 29 September and was dedicated to the horizons of intelligence and the limits of human technology. Since its first edition, Trieste Next has been conceived as a temporary observatory and laboratory, becoming an international showcase that brings together cutting-edge applied research, new technologies and innovative companies.
The conference was a journey into Open Science without borders, whose protagonists are new approaches to assessing the quality of data, its integration and its meaningful use. Sharing provides pathways that enable experts to get closer to citizens, policy makers and other stakeholders, and pathways that enable non-experts to support researchers. Open Science is the way to bring them together, a place where people can dialogue with each other thanks to new technologies and arrive at reliable and useful results for society and the planet.
Some of the founding principles of Open Science, i.e. FAIR data and citizen science, were presented by Chiara Altobelli from NODC, Paolo Diviacco, Open Science researcher at OGS Geophysics, Domenico D'alelio, researcher at the Anton Dohrn Zoological Station and the National Centre for Future Biodiversity and co-founder of Citizen Science Italia, and Alessia Smaniotto, project coordinator and contact person for Citizen Science OpenEdition France.
A presentation of the main topics covered and the YouTube video of the event are available for those who missed the event in Trieste and the live streaming.
