PathOS has done a great job in collecting and summarising existing knowledge about Open Science impact. This is great. @pathos-project.bsky.social @ouvrirlascience.bsky.social
[1/3] Worth reading in @science.org: really important, comprehensive work on #OpenScience impact by the @pathos-project.bsky.social. Some benefits are well-documented (citations, citizen science), but strong evidence for broader economic/societal impacts still sparse. www.science.org/content/arti...
Is ‘open science’ delivering benefits? Major study finds proof is sparse
It’s hard to measure social and economic impacts of making papers and data free, researchers say
