Do you like gaming? Are you participating in the European Citizen Science Association, ECSA online conference 6-11 September? Don't miss the opportunity to get a glimpse of the new Genigma game on 9 September. The Genigma Citizen Science project is funded by ORION Open Science.
Ever heard the term Open Science? If not you should sign up for the workshop "Why Everyone Should Care About Open Science" at the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in the Helmholtz Association, MDC, in Berlin on 4 November during the Berlin Science Week.
Earlier this year, the ORION partner South Moravian Centre for International Mobility, JCMM in Czech Republic granted ten projects run by students of master's and doctoral degrees from Brno universities €5.000 each for their innovative projects with open science attributes. The projects were selected from a regional call for open science projects on local societal challenges. The winning projects will be presented in a series of seminars during autumn. Join the discussions during the workshop and seminar on Advanced ceramics and glass for medical applications.

On 5 October the Barcelona Biomedical Research Park, PRBB, will open up the doors to the public. Scientists and staff will showcase what they do, how they do it and where. You will also have the chance to try the prototype of the ORION funded Genigma game app.
Genome editing has the potential to revolutionise the treatment and prevention of diseases. But, this technology also raises a range of ethical, scientific and social issues. What responsibilities do scientific stakeholders have in consulting the public, and how can public opinion influence the future of genome editing research? Join the discussions at ESOF 2018 in Toulouse.
Researchers want to enhance their career prospects by publishing in well-regarded journals, building collaborative partnerships, acquiring funding, and creating innovative projects. It is still anongoing debate, whether aspects of Open Science such as Open Access, Open Data, and Public Engagement can provide this enhancement. Join the workshop at ESOF 2018.
Which characteristics of the Open Science movement can be improved or expanded on in order to make it the perfect partner for the Citizen Science movement and an ally for common cause? Welcome to find out in our interactive workshop at the ECSA conference in Geneva.
