Aside from work in the lab, I have been busy promoting the cause of open notebooking at a number of different events around the world. This has been very rewarding and I have enjoyed engaging different audiences in the work our open notebook community is doing.
I spoke recently at the Creative Commons Global Summit in Toronto, Japan SciComm Event in Tokyo as well as having some more low-key discussion with students and faculty at McMaster University in Hamilton. The slides from all of my talks can be found here.
Recently I have been following some open notebookers I found recently:
– Jörn Alexander Quent who is a graduate student at the University of Cambridge, UK
@J_A_Quent
@J_A_Quent
– Jerome Pinguet who is writing an open notebook on his MD thesis
@MedecineLibre
– Ellie Williams who has joined the SGC Extreme Open Science Unit in Oxford – welcome!
I also found this new open notebook community of Zenodo https://zenodo.org/communities/yt_hydro/ set up by Nadine Shatilla of McMaster University.
Excited to see how these notebooks develop especially as these folks are working in very different fields doing vastly different science.
