Some open questions include:
#DeSci #DeSciLondon

#DeSci is often difficult to picture - Holke Brammer gave us a good overview of a potential “retrospective funding” mechanism that aims to de-risk impact funding, enhances the potential for public good and creates recurring income streams.

#DeSciLondon

Could research organisations benefit from using smart contracts in IP management, particularly when working with external (incl. commercial) partners? This sounds to me like a #DeSci application with clear operational and financial benefits. https://www.wipo.int/wipo_magazine/en/2018/01/article_0005.html #DeSciLondon

Paraphrasing Chi Onwurah: #DeSci can be a tool to make all members of the research enterprise feel like they have a say.

#DeSciLondon

Great conversation about to kick off between Isabel Thompson and Chi Onwurah, Shadow Minister for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. I find it really interesting that something as early stage as #DeSci has caught policy interest.

#DeSciLondon

Lina Zakarauskaite mentions the reproducibility crisis and the FAIR principles at #DeSciLondon - good to hear these open science related topics as part of the #DeSci discussion.

#openscience

I’ve been waiting to see some success stories arising from #DeSci or #DeFi approaches. Great to see the impact of JOGL.

#DeSciLondon

How could a project get funding in a #DeSci context? Great overview by JOGL!

#DeSciLondon

When reading online about #DeSci, most of the information focuses on how technology can disrupt the status quo, for example Web3, blockchain or smart contracts. I was pleased to see the community component of decentralised science come across more strongly at #DeSciLondon.

What does decentralisation look like? Really useful infographic from Jenny Molloy.

Great definition of “open approaches”, going beyond just open sharing. #openscience #descilondon

Excited to kick off the day with Jenny Molloy’s presentation on the intersection between open and decentralised science at #DeSciLondon!

#desci #openscience #research

Deep change most often arises from widespread dissatisfaction: Isabel Thompson presents #DeSci as a solution centred around collaboration and openness. #DeSci is a blank canvas using decentralised technologies alongside new governance and economic and legal models.

#descilondon

Something we’ve been hearing more and more in research…! Isabel Thompson notes that this unhappiness is one of the key reasons we should be more aware of #DeSci.

#descilondon #research #AcademicChatter

In a decentralised database accessible and reusable by anyone, it is possible to weave AI suggestions into more rigorous literature review methodology. Today, with limitations due to AI capabilities, but the future looks bright! #descilondon #DeSci (screenshot from the Lateral tool)

Martin Karlsson (Lateral) shared what he thinks might be some of the ingredients for better science and better tools for scientists.

#descilondon #DeSci

Martin Karlsson (Lateral) gave us a great demo: what does #DeSci look like in practice?

In his presentation, he shared a great point: “The world is too complex for legacy coordination mechanisms”.
