Science 2.0 Course

The idea behind this page is to build a comprehensive course material for people talking about or even teaching how to do science in connected world (so-called Science 2.0).


  1. Communication, collaboration, visibility
    • New communications channels (blogs, microblogs, aggregators, virtual conferences ans poster sessions) and examples of successful applying in science.
    • New roles of blogs, Research Blogging initiative.
    • Wikis, Etherpad and Google Documents/Wave - platforms for document co-writing.
    • Collaboration for programmers, Git.
    • Visibility and recognition in the internets: StackOverflow and ResearcherID.
    • Metrics (large list of relevant articles is on this FriendFeed thread)
  2. Practical open science
    • Spectrum of openness in science.
    • Community annotation of genes/proteins/structures and why these aren’t so successful.
    • Crowdsourcing and citizen-science.
    • Overview of open data repositories, focusing on open data coming from pharma industry.
    • Current discussions on intellectual property - what’s not protected and what’s not licensable?
    • Data attribution.
  3. Searching for information and literature management
    • Information overflow - myth or fact?
    • Searching for information - differences between PubMed and Google Scholar.
    • Semantic analysis of abstracts based on GoPubMed and NovoSeek.
    • Targeted text-mining tools.
    • Literature management: online (Connotea, CiteULike) and desktop (Zotero, Mendeley) approaches. Alternatives for EndNote. Automated or not – literature recommendations.
