Ever wonder how #openscience policies are made?

If you take a close read, you'll see that COS models the adaptability of the framework. They don't adopt the most stringent standards for every research practice, and that is OK! Good even!
It's also a nice model of using TOP to assess one's current position and see where you want to go next.

Funders - ever wondered what it might look like to implement the TOP guidelines? Here, COS shows how they've done so with the updated (2025) guidelines in their own work as a pass-through funder.
Take aways? TOP is a modular, customizable framework that can be tweaked for a variety of settings.

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
