<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The Open Science Conference 2018 is the 5th international conference of the Leibniz Research Alliance Science 2.0. It is dedicated to the Open Science movement and provides a unique forum where researchers, librarians,
practitioners, politicians, and other important stakeholders can discuss and exchange their ideas and experiences.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The Open Science movement focuses on research data management in general and most recently on FAIR data principles, i.e. findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable research data. The thematic focus of this year’s
conference will be on FAIR principles of research data and supporting research data infrastructures.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Invited as well as carefully selected talks, hands-on reports and a panel discussion will cover both the view of research data infrastructures and the view of the scientific communities. We also accepted 21 submissions
to the “Call for Project Presentations” to be presented at the conference.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
