3.1: Open Science Framework (OSF)

Support open science objectives across disciplines.

Other Information:

OSF is the central infrastructure for the COS to support open science objectives across disciplines. Researchers use OSF to collaborate, document, archive, share, and register research projects, materials, and data. OSF respects and supports the scientist's workflow. OSF will connect solutions for improving scientific practices and provide incentives for researchers to use the system and practice openly. Funders, journals, and IRBs will encourage or require researchers to use OSF to meet open science or reproducibility objectives.
