ITRN Open Science Expert List:

We are pleased to announce that the ITRN Open Science Expert List is now publicly available and accessible!
You can access it directly via the website menu:  Resources → ITRN Open Science Expert List, or by clicking this link: ITRN Open Science Expert List.

This list is the result of an initiative launched by the ITRN Teaching group following the 2024 annual meeting in Milan. The goal was to gather information on our members’ expertise in Open Science and their availability to lead workshops, seminars, or training activities.

The Association frequently receives requests for support in Open Science-related initiatives. For this reason, the Expert List serves as a practical tool to:

• Internally map the skills and availability of ITRN members,

• Provide organizations, institutions, and research groups with a clear reference to find qualified experts based on their training needs,

• Highlight the profiles of our members, fostering new opportunities for collaboration and research.

Strategic Plan: In order to plan activities for the two-year period 2023-2024, we have written a strategic plan. The plan brings together all the activities we want to implement over the two-year period of the Steering Group. You can find the plan at this link, and if you want to contribute to its realisation, send an email to us.

Your support and participation will help us drive the global movement towards a more open and reproducible science. Together, we can make a significant impact.
