The Open Science Framework (OSF) is a free, open-source project management and collaboration tool that supports researchers throughout the entire research lifecycle-from planning, to conducting, to sharing and discovering research.

This workshop introduces the key features of OSF and demonstrates how it can be used to enhance transparency, collaboration, and reproducibility in academic research. You will learn how to create projects, collaborate with others and share outputs openly.

By the end of the workshop you will be able to

• Describe the OSF and explain the benefits of using OSF in academic research
• Use OSF to discover openly shared research outputs
• Create an account, set-up projects and share your research outputs openly and responsibly using OSF’s registration and licensing tools.
• Locate source of support and guidance

Target audience

Postgraduate researchers at all stages and from all disciplines, and ECRs from all disciplines, broadly encompassing research assistants, postdoctoral researchers and research fellows at grades 6-8.
