Open Software in Research – Practices, Policies, and Communities

20 October 2025 13:30 | Seminar
Ginkoblad

Research software is essential to the research process but is not always recognized or supported on the same level as other research outputs. Several international and national efforts have begun addressing this gap, including a recent funders’ workshop in Uppsala and the Nordic Research Software Engineer (RSE) Conference. Building on these initiatives, this Lund Open Science event will highlight the importance of supporting research software in Sweden and explore how we can do so collectively.

Speakers will discuss the role of Research Software Engineers, sustainable funding and policy models, and best practices for sharing and developing sustainable research software, as well as opportunities for shared action to strengthen the Swedish research software ecosystem, ensuring it is visible, reusable, and aligned with FAIR and open science principles.

Read more about the event and speakers on the Open Science Notice Board blog.
