Open Access Development in Asia - Vrushali Dandawate - OpenCon 2017Right to Research

��

The document proposes a study on open access development in Asia. It notes that little open access information was found for some Asian countries, possibly due to language barriers, political issues, or lack of awareness. A strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats analysis found that while many Asian countries advocate for open access, funding and communication gaps remain challenges. The document calls for Asian open access advocates to unite and collaborate on workshops and conferences to spread more awareness across the region.

Regional Models for Open Research and Education in Latin America - Guillermin...Right to Research

��

This presentation by Guillermina Actis was part of OpenCon 2017's Regional Models for Open Research and Open Education panel. Guillermina's presentation introduced the regional landscape of science and technology (S&T) communication, focusing on the alternatives that have been built in the last decades to increase local knowledge production’s visibility through regional indexing systems and gold open access (SciELO and RedALyC). The high-level authorities’ efforts for promoting green open access policies and building its infrastructures will also be addressed by presenting the regional initiative established in 2012, LAReferencia, which is a federated network of nine countries that aims at establishing agreements and providing guidelines for the creation of repositories to provide open access to publicly funded research, addressing S&T production as a public good.

This presentation by Aliya Ibraimova was part of OpenCon 2017's Regional Models for Open Research and Open Education panel. Aliya shared the successes and challenges of integrating openness in the Kyrgyz context through the implementation of Kyrgyz Mountains Environmental Education and Citizen Science project (KMEECS) and subsequent projects. KMEECS project applies a transdisciplinary approach to knowledge generation. It combines citizen science on the community level, environmental research and teacher training to foster awareness of and interaction with the local environment. At the same time it aims at generating locally relevant data on the environment in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan. The project pilots the introduction of low-cost environmental field courses on water monitoring in schools in mountain communities of Kyrgyzstan’s Naryn province. Based on a citizen science approach, students analyse and generate data on their water resources, which are fed into a network of open environmental data.

Translating Open Agricultural Research to Local & World languages for Ethiopi...Right to Research

��

Agriculture is the backbone of Ethiopia's economy, contributing over 40% of GDP. Small scale farmers produce most of the food but use traditional farming methods with low productivity. This project aims to translate open agricultural research into local languages for Ethiopian farmers to promote citizen science. It will empower farmers by making research accessible in their own languages and involving them in data collection and analysis. This will help farmers apply scientific findings, improving productivity, ensuring food security, and stimulating economic growth.

Assessing Current Practices in Academic Review, Promotion, and Tenure across ...Right to Research

��

This presentation by Carol Muñoz Nieves was part of OpenCon 2017's Next-Generation Initiatives Advancing Open panel. The project “Assessing Current Practices in Review, Promotion and Tenure (RPT) Across the United States and Canada” departs from the belief that the adoption of open access and other open science principles among academics would be more widespread if ‘being open’ was explicitly rewarded in career progression of university professors. In the case of Canadian and American institutions of higher education, career progression generally takes the form of reviews of faculty’s work, promotions, and the achievement of tenure—a permanent, lifetime, position at an institution that cannot be terminated, except under crucial circumstances. The importance placed on the RPT process by all faculty suggests that changes in the policy documents and guidelines that inform these practices may provide the impetus for behavioral change, leading to broader interest and adoption of open access values. In the context of a broad and ongoing project, this presentation will focus in some of the results of the content analysis of 864 RPT guidelines and forms of 129 institutions across the US and Canada. These finding will hopefully provide baseline knowledge for thinking in actualized ways of effecting change towards a greater opening of research in North American universities.

I won't be #BulliedIntoBadScience! - Laurent Gatto - OpenCon 2017Right to Research

��

This presentation by Laurent Gatto was part of OpenCon 2017's Next-Generation Initiatives Advancing Open panel. The #BulliedIntoBadScience campaign was initiated after several attempts to influence publishing practices at the University of Cambridge and in the UK. However, it seems at times impossible for academics, early stage and more senior, to change a broken system that is, sadly, just accepted by most. During this OpenCon 2017 Panel, Laurent shared some of the background of the #BulliedIntoBadScience campaign and reflected on early career researchers' challenges in fighting for a more ethical environment.

PROTEIN DEGRADATION via ubiquitous pathawayKaviya Priya A

��

Protein degradation via ubiquitous pathway In general science, a ubiquitous pathway refers to a biochemical or metabolic pathway that is: 1. *Widely present*: Found in many different organisms, tissues, or cells. 2. *Conserved*: Remains relatively unchanged across different species or contexts. Examples of ubiquitous pathways include: 1. *Glycolysis*: The process of breaking down glucose for energy, found in nearly all living organisms. 2. *Citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle)*: A key metabolic pathway involved in energy production, present in many cells. 3. *Pentose phosphate pathway*: A metabolic pathway involved in energy production and antioxidant defenses, found in many organisms. These pathways are essential for life and have been conserved across evolution, highlighting their importance for cellular function and survival.

The Solar System’s passage through the Radcliffe wave during the middle MioceneSérgio Sacani

��

As the Solar System orbits the Milky Way, it encounters various Galactic environments, including dense regions of the interstellar medium (ISM). These encounters can compress the heliosphere, exposing parts of the Solar System to the ISM, while also increasing the influx of interstellar dust into the Solar System and Earth’s atmosphere. The discovery of new Galactic structures, such as the Radcliffe wave, raises the question of whether the Sun has encountered any of them. Aims. The present study investigates the potential passage of the Solar System through the Radcliffe wave gas structure over the past 30 million years (Myr). Methods. We used a sample of 56 high-quality, young (≤30 Myr) open clusters associated with a region of interest of the Radcliffe wave to trace its motion back and investigate a potential crossing with the Solar System’s past orbit. Results. We find that the Solar System’s trajectory intersected the Radcliffe wave in the Orion region. We have constrained the timing of this event to between 18.2 and 11.5 Myr ago, with the closest approach occurring between 14.8 and 12.4 Myr ago. Notably, this period coincides with the Middle Miocene climate transition on Earth, providing an interdisciplinary link with paleoclimatology. The potential impact of the crossing of the Radcliffe wave on the climate on Earth is estimated. This crossing could also lead to anomalies in radionuclide abundances, which is an important research topic in the field of geology and nuclear astrophysics.
