SUMMARY:Reproducible Research Oxford by Dr Malika Ihle
DESCRIPTION:About the talk \nHow can an open research working group help drive a research culture change at the institutional level? Reproducible Research Oxford a.k.a. RROx (“rocks”) has been working to achieve this by (i) building cross-disciplinary communities\, (ii) providing training and promoting practices that are beneficial to research communities\, and sustainable for researchers\, and (iii) liaising with stakeholders to inform the design of policy. \nAbout the speaker \n\nMalika Ihle is the Reproducible Research Oxford Coordinator\, supporting the Steering Group in developing a comprehensive approach to open scholarship and reproducible research that extends across all disciplines\, using both bottom-up and top-down strategies. \nMalika holds a Master degree in Biology from Université de Bourgogne and Université du Québec à Montréal\, and a PhD in Behavioral Ecology from the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology. During her post-docs at the University of Sheffield and University of Florida\, she organised a post-conference symposium on open science\, she co-authored an invited idea in the journal Behavioral Ecology titled “Striving for transparent and credible research: practical guidelines for behavioural ecologist”\, and she developed and taught a graduate course guiding students through the scientific pipeline\, from preregistration to a reproducible and open workflow. \nMalika is an Executive Committee member of the Society for Open Reliable Transparent Ecology and Evolutionary biology (SORTEE) and the UK Reproducibility Network (UKRN) local network lead at the University of Oxford.

SUMMARY:Conflicts and complexities on the path to open data  by Prof Louise Connell
DESCRIPTION:About the talk \nEven with the best intentions and motivations\, sharing your data in an open repository is not always as easy as it should be. Barriers can appear in a variety of forms\, including uncertainty regarding copyright and data ownership\, diverging interpretations of GDPR and ethical issues\, and sheer lack of time and resources to curate your data into a shareable format. I discuss some ways my collaborators and I have navigated these barriers and share some tips and tricks for making the process as painless as possible. \nAbout the speaker \nMy research interests surround cognitive science and embodied cognition. Specifically\, I’m interested in how mental representations and conceptual knowledge are grounded\, how we access and use these representations in language\, and how we can create computational models to better understand human cognitive behaviour. I use a range of interdisciplinary methods from experimental psychology and cognitive modelling to corpus linguistics and machine learning. Some recent work has examined how sensorimotor experience (i.e.\, what we sense via different perceptual modalities\, what we do via different action effectors) underpins word meaning\, how distributional statistics from language capture important information about conceptual and social knowledge\, how information about space and time is mentally represented\, and how people combine concepts into new entities.
