Much of the conversations around open science at the MNI have revolved around making data sets and resources available to external collaborators. But there are many other facets to this topic. While open source has a 30+ years of history and some widely accepted practices, open science is a relatively young field that is undergoing a lot of changes and developments.

Open Science is the practice of science in such a way that others can collaborate and contribute, where research data, lab notes and other research processes are freely available, under terms that enable reuse, redistribution and reproduction of the research and its underlying data and methods.
