​​​​​​As early career researcher (PhD or postdoctoral researcher), the topic of Open Science can seem complicated and overwhelming. In this talk, I aim to show that starting with Open Science is doable and worthwhile. At the core of Open Science lies transparency, and implementing Open Science practices will improve the verifiability, reproducibility, and credibility of your research. First, I will briefly discuss problems in current scientific practice and how Open Science can help. Second, I will outline several practices, including preregistration, reproducible workflow, sharing of data, code, and materials, and preprints. For each practice, I will discuss benefits as well as potential challenges and how to overcome them. In addition, I will explain the value of ReproducibiliTea journal clubs for education, community-building, and promotion of Open Science practices in a department. Lastly, I will provide useful resources and suggestions for further reading so you are ready to take your first steps into Open Science.
