Open research

Especially if the research is scientific in nature, it is frequently referred to as open science.

It encompasses practices such as publishing open research, campaigning for open access, encouraging scientists to practice open notebook science, and generally making it easier to publish and communicate scientific knowledge.

Projects that provide open data but don't offer open collaboration are referred to as "open access" rather than open research.

The emergence of open science or open research has brought to light a number of controversial and hotly-debated topics.

Providing open data is a necessary but not sufficient condition for open research, because although the data may be used by anyone, there is no requirement for subsequent research to take place openly.

It is similar to the open research and open science movements and is inspired by Web 2.0 technologies.

Open research is research conducted in the spirit of free and open-source software.

Much like open-source schemes that are built around a source code that is made public, the central theme of open research is to make clear accounts of the methodology freely available via the internet, along with any data or results extracted or derived from them.

Open research can also include social sciences, the humanities, mathematics, engineering and medicine.

Crowdsourcing projects that recruit large numbers of participants to carry out small tasks which are then assembled into a larger project outcome have delivered significant research outcomes, but these projects are distinct from those in which participants are able to influence the overall direction of the research, or in which participants are expected to have creative input into the science behind the project.

In 2005, several examples arose in the area of the search for new/improved medical treatments of Neglected Diseases.

Science and engineering research to support the creation of open-source appropriate technology for sustainable development has long used open research principles.

In 2013, open research became more mainstream with web based platforms such as figshare continuing to grow in terms of users and publicly available outputs.
