SUMMARY:Improving Science with Science: Open Research\, Equity\, and Contributor Recognition
DESCRIPTION:SciLifeLab CoARA working group invites you to the first in a series of webinars during the autumn 2026. We welcome  Dr Malgorzata Lagisz\, School of Biological SciencesUniversity of Alberta\, Canada  presenting “Improving Science with Science: Open Research\, Equity\, and Contributor Recognition” on Sept 9th. \n\n\n\nWhen: Sept 9\, at 15-16 CEST on Zoom \n\n\n\nRegistration will open in July. \n\n\n\nAbstract \n\n\n\nScience faces growing challenges related to reproducibility\, transparency\, equity\, and trust. In this seminar\, I will discuss how Open Science practices and meta-research can work together to improve the reliability and inclusivity of scientific research.  Dr Lagisz will introduce key ideas behind the Open Science movement and present examples of meta-research projects from the group and global collaborations investigating research culture\, contributor recognition\, and equity in science. These include large-scale analyses of authorship and acknowledgment practices\, revealing that many important scientific contributions remain poorly recognised and invisible in scholarly databases. Together\, these projects demonstrate how empirical research on science itself can help identify structural barriers and inform practical reforms to improve transparency\, collaboration\, and fairness in research systems. Dr Lagisz will conclude by sharing resources and tools for contributing to a more open\, trustworthy\, and collaborative scientific enterprise. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nShort bio: Dr Malgorzata (“Losia”) Lagisz is an Associate Professor at the University of Alberta. With prior appointments in UK\, New Zealand\, and Australia\, her interdisciplinary research spans ecology\, evolutionary biology\, biomedical science\, environmental studies\, and social science. She uses evidence synthesis (systematic reviews\, meta‑analyses\, systematic maps\, and meta‑epidemiology) to tackle critical questions across disciplines. Dr Lagisz co‑leads a team dedicated to advancing evidence synthesis\, Open Science and equity in research.

The SciLifeLab CoARA Working Group formed in the Spring of 2024 and consist of both SciLifeLab representatives and representatives from the host universitites. Additionally\, SciLifeLab is part of the Swedish National Chapter of CoARA\, strengthening the commitment to improving research assessment in Sweden.

SUMMARY:AI Frontiers in Life Sciences: From Models to Meaning
DESCRIPTION:Registration will open soon \n\n\n\nTitle: AI Frontiers in Life Sciences: From Models to Meaning \n\n\n\nDate and time: October 2\, 2026 at 8.00-17.00 CET \n\n\n\nLocation: Humanistiska teatern\, Uppsala\,onsite and livestream via Zoom \n\n\n\nDescription: Please save the date for the upcoming SciLifeLab symposium AI Frontiers in Life Sciences: From Models to Meaning\, taking place October 2\, 2026 in Uppsala. This event will bring together experts in artificial intelligence (AI) and life sciences to discuss emerging directions\, challenges\, and opportunities for AI in life science research. The symposium will include presentations\, demonstrations\, and panel discussions\, with approximately 120 participants onsite and livestream via Zoom. This event is intended for researchers\, infrastructure experts\, and professionals interested in AI-driven life science research. The symposium will serve as an opportunity to gather input to help refine the SciLifeLab AI Strategy and support ongoing and planned work across SciLifeLab. \n\n\n\nFurther details\, including the program and registration\, will be announced soon. \n\n\n\nSpeakers:  \n\n\n\nSebastian Lobentanzer\, Helmholtz Center Munich \nPI Computational Health Center \n\n\n\nSebastian Lobentanzer is a PI at the Computational Health Center at Helmholtz Center Munich since 2025\, and in affiliation with the Open Targets group at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) since 2024. Sebastian serves as the head of computational biology at the German Center for Diabetes Research. He is the author of BioCypher – https://biocypher.org/ \, BioChatter – https://biochatter.org/ projects. \n\n\n\nLab Web: https://www.helmholtz-munich.de/en/research-group-lab-9 \n\n\n\n\nAnna Kreshuk\, EMBL\nInterim Head of Unit for CBB \n\n\n\nAnna Kreshuk is a group leader and a Senior Scientist in the Cell Biology and Biophysics Unit at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) in Heidelberg\, Germany. She received a PhD in Computer Science from Heidelberg University in 2012. Following this\, she worked as a PostDoc in the Heidelberg Collaboratory for Image Processing (HCI). She joined EMBL in July 2018\, where her research group develops novel computer vision methods for the analysis of microscopy images. Beyond method development\, she is also committed to the democratisation of machine learning for the life science community\, contributing open source tools such as ilastik and PlantSeg. She is an ELLIS scholar and a scientific co-coordinator of the Horizon Europe project AI4Life.
