Description:
In an age of increasingly complex and data-intensive, collaborative  
scientific practices, scandals of irreproducibility, and a growing  
societal ethos of transparency and accountability, a new paradigm has  
arisen: Open Science. In this three day course, we will introduce to  
you the three organizing principles and practices that under-gird this  
paradigm:

     Open Access scholarly publishing
     Open Source software development
     Open Data integration and sharing

For this, we will be introducing a set of technologies and ways of  
using them. The reasonable expectation is that the participants will  
feel empowered and start using them for the above purposes in a highly  
productive way. The use-cases that we will be working on are going to  
be based on bioinformatics, but the principles are very broadly  
applicable to other fields. You do not need to have any particular  
programming or otherwise computational experience beyond what is  
normally required from a scientist in graduate school and beyond,  
i.e., you should not be afraid of interacting with a computer and  
editing simple text files.
