Abstract

Open science can accelerate the pace of research and contribute to a more equitable society. However, the current culture of scientific research is not optimally structured to promote extensive sharing of a range of outputs. In this policy position paper, we outline current open science practices and key bottlenecks in their broader adoption. We propose that national science agencies create a digital infrastructure framework that would standardize open science principles and make them actionable. We also suggest ways of redefining research success to align better with open science, and to incentivize a system where sharing various research outputs is beneficial to researchers.
