The 麻豆视频 is as a leading UK institute in Open Research and this event demonstrated our commitment to enhancing the scale and impact of research throughout the world.Professor Lisa Collins, Pro-Vice-Chancellor, Research and Innovation
Open Research is increasingly being recognised on a global scale because of the benefits it can generate for scientists and society at large and I鈥檓 delighted that Surrey is at the front of this cultural evolution.
I would like to thank our keynote speakers for their contribution to our inspiring event and encourage everyone 鈥 whether you are just starting to think about Open Research or already embed Open Research practices into your research 鈥 to take away your learnings from the day and share them with colleagues to effect change.
