Open Science
Open science is about building a scientific culture that values accessibility, transparency, reproducibility, and collaboration.
This is something I care about deeply and try to reflect in my daily work.
My contributions to open science span different levels, from personal practices to community involvement and infrastructure.
I see open science as a way of working, not just a set of rules. It affects how I design studies, write code, share results, and support others in doing the same.
Community & Initiatives
Open science also means supporting the systems and communities that make it possible. I contribute through organizing, reviewing, and community-building:
- I am an Open Science Ambassador in the Max Planck Society, helping build local awareness and promote transparent research practices across the Max Planck Institutes.
- I am an active member of SORTEE (Society for Open, Reliable, and Transparent Ecology and Evolution), where I serve on the Member Engagement Committee.
- In 2025, I am organising the SORTEE Code Club, a monthly online meetup exploring practical tools and workflows for open science.
→ See the upcoming schedule here. - I also work as a Data Editor for PCI Ecology, where I check the accessibility and reproducibility of data and code associated with recommended preprints.
