The strain on scientific publishing 📄:

We've got issues. Scientists overwhelmed, editors overworked, constant special issue invites, mass article retractions, journal delistings… JUST WHAT IS GOING ON!?

Today's QUB ReproducibiliTea resulted in a mildly chaotic concept map about #OpenScience. Definitely not comprehensive, but pretty impressive for a one hour meeting!!
A concept map showing a range of open scholarship concepts including data sharing, code sharing, multidisciplinarity, collaboration, changing incentives and theory development.
