Hour: 11:00

Location: Maryam Mirzakhani Seminar Room at BCAM

Speakers: Miguel Benitez (BCAM)

The training activity will be addressed in two directions: on the one hand, we will introduce what open access is in publishing, how we have adapted our centre to European and national mandates and what the process of change has been like. We will focus on the importance of the preprint, talk about quantitative indicators and the DORA and COARA declarations.

On the other hand, we will introduce the Data Management Plan (DMP), how to prepare, when you should prepare and the importance of the DMP in the proposals.
