Traveling from Munich to Warsaw today for useR! 2026
Train connection via Berlin. Got good snacks packed for a long day of train travel and ready for all the podcasts (recommendations always welcome) 🎧🚄🇵🇱
Left home this morning at 7 but really this journey started last year. Since then we've been prepping this fantastic conference and I am so ready for it to finally start.
Excited for next week!
Excited for #deRSE26 this week. You can find me at our booth - proudly transported here by bike ;)
I can't believe it's almost been a year since the Open Science Retreat in Switzerland #OSR25CH! Now I am already getting ready to go to the next two.
Two?! Yes.
I will head off to the Netherlands for a Dutch-centered retreat in the dunes and right after I'll continue on to Wales for the Open Science Retreat Global in the wonderful green nature of Wales #OSR26UK.
Looking forward to moving #OpenScience forward!
(and enjoying nature, of course)
First impressions of Wales are fantastic. Had a great lunch and found our way to the Center of Alternative Technology (thanks to the kind and funny bus driver 😁).
Ready for the Open Science Retreat #OSR26UK
The most meaningful thing I've probably ever worked on is the Open Science Retreat.
The retreats since 2023 have connected #OpenScience enthusiasts from all over the world in a way that is beyond what I could have ever imagined.
Here is the new Wiki:
https://wiki.digital-research.academy/en/OSRetreat
Take the ideas you find in the new Open Science Retreat wiki and build other events that feel like a safe space, a new way to collaborate, to deeply connect and make new friends.
With #LoveReplicationsWeek just around the corner, let's talk about the new journal in the field: Replication Research (R2)
Repeating important research is an important building block of improving the reliability of research. R2 is turning this into a rewarding task by creating a venue to get these important studies published.
It's a journal aligned with the values of #OpenScience, it's multidisciplinary and it's ready for your submissions!

The Open Science Retreat 2026 in Wales is coming to an end and with that our beautiful little week of utopia-ing at the Center for Alternative Technology.
Jules is guiding us through the final presentations of the collaborative work that happened this week.
And a lot happened! The topics and activities were defined by everyone in a collaborative effort (#Unconference).
For the first time we did not only have an Unconference for the adult participants but also one for the kids 🤩
Almost there! Open Science Retreat Global in Wales is about to start 🤩
The Dutch Open Science Retreat is already in full swing. The morning started with a beautiful sunrise, and now the groups are in full work mode. Walks and shorter sessions to come in the afternoon and some fun evening activities (will there be singing again?)
Munich Research Software Engineering Meetup today, 18:00 – 19:30, at Max Planck Information and Technology (MaxIT) in Laim
Afterwards: Joint dinner
Last day of the Open Science Retreat is starting with a special surprise: it's snowing! 🌨
Thanks Switzerland for showing us all the seasons in one week 💜
First full day of the Open Science Retreat #OSR25CH is in full swing. Had some wonderful conversations about Open Science, science outreach and marketing, and unconventional careers all in a single day.
And enjoying walks and views of course.
The Open Science Retreat is my favorite event of the year and next year I get to go to not only one but two?! 2026 will be the best year ever.
