One of the things I have been busy with in the past weeks (besides contributing to grant proposals) is the organization\nof the June 11-12 Open Science Festival Limburg!\nOpen Science Festivals provide a great platform to talk science in an open way, with people that all find reuse of\nscience more important. The creativity present at such events is just so energizing.
\n\nThis is the second time a local Open Science Festival is organized in the area, with an\nOpen Science Festival Maastricht in 2023.\nOf course, a year later Maastricht also hosted the 2024 national Open Science Festival.
\n\nThis year’s event is co-organized by the (new) Open Science Community Parkstad and the\nOpen Science Community Maastricht,\nwith interdisciplinarity as main theme. The event will take day over two days, June 11 in Heerlen,\nand June 12 in Maastricht. You can register\nfor either or for both days. Each days have plenary sessions and several parallel workshops,\nwhere you will dive into one of the many aspects of open science.
\n\nLooking forward to welcoming you in Limburg!
