Open Science is a broad movement looking beyond Open Access to publish openly and share scientific research immediately. Accessibility is addressed on all levels for everyone, without fees.

Beyond the ethical arguments, Open Science also offer an opportunity for young researchers to adapt to a new workflow for performing impacting research and forming unexpected collaborations. Open Science can significantly contribute to building a strong research profile, while address funder ambitions on stimulating innovation and economic growth through removing all barriers to data and knowledge (EU Digital Agenda, EC Blue Growth Agenda).

This short course forms Part IV in the Short Course series 'Open Science goes Geo', and will pull together all the advice covered in the previous short courses to a very specific task: scoring high proposal evaluations across all Horizon2020 instruments (Marie Curie Fellowships, European Training Networks, Integrated Project in the Societal Challenges).

The 90 min session will analyze the application requirements of Horizon2020 funding instruments, and offer proven and implementable Open Science strategies that can optimize on evaluation procedure and maximize funding chances for research proposals. The lesson will make reference as much as possible to national funding instruments.

Speakers:
- Sünje Dallmeier-Tiessen, European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN)
- Ivo Grigorov, FP7 FOSTER Consortium on implementing Horizon 2020 Mandate on Access to Scientific Knowledge (DTU AQUA)
