Nana Bit-Avragim

Editor/Open Access Outreach, OpenScience GmbH

I am a translational scientist (focus on molecular cardiology) and Editor at ScienceOpen. ScienceOpen is a new community-based Open Access publisher and research network from Berlin, Germany and Boston, USA. With the initiative ScienceOpen, we would like to change the current scientific publishing culture and, therefore have created a concept of immediate publication followed by transparent evaluation.

Stefan Busch

Head of Business and Process Development, BioMed Central

I left academia in 2003 and have worked for BioMed Central ever since, first in London, now in Heidelberg. These days I head up a team that looks after a range of tasks that do not sit within specific publishing groups, including contracts, journal reporting, and indexing (working with services such as Thomson Reuters’ Web of Science).

In the workshop we will look at various aspects of open access that are relevant for researchers, such as: how do OA journals (not) differ from subscription journals; copyright and licensing; business models, including “hybrid open access”; quality criteria (the good, the bad, …).

Thomas Lemberger

Deputy Head of Scientific Publications, EMBO

The peer reviewed research paper remains the predominant mode of sharing research findings. Journals play important roles in research assessment. As research output continues to grow massively, scaleable and reliable mechanisms are required to select, validate, archive, share and find research. The EMBO press journals have taken several initiatives to ensure that peer-reviewed publication aids research progress and remains a hallmark of a reliable scientific process. It’s transparent editorial process and pre-decision referee discussion ensures the fairness and accountability of the decision process. EMBO's SourceData project is recasting the paper as a rich online resource that allows researchers to discover, reproduce and share research data more effectively.

Barbara Marte

Senior Editor, Nature Publishing Group

In addition to describing my own career path from active research in the laboratory to becoming an editor at Nature (and Nature Cell Biology), I will discuss the part of the job on which most of our time is spent: how the editors at Nature select the primary research papers published: how we make decisions, how we manage the review process and consider appeals, and how we generally interact with authors and reviewers throughout the process.
The presentation will include a discussion of the skills required for these tasks as well as the career opportunities for scientists within scientific publishing.

David Peralta

Assistant Editor, Wiley-VCH

I currently work as an Assistant Editor at Wiley-VCH. I did my PhD at DKFZ and have been a Heidelberger for six years now. Before this, I finished my degrees in Chemistry and German Studies in the Philippines. I have a passion for both science and the arts—being both a biochemist and a performer. This creative and outgoing side got me interested in science communication, and eventually, science publishing. Thanks to workshops like these and the help of the DKFZ Career Office and the BIOCONTACT team, I was able to move into scientific publishing.

Editor, Spektrum der Wissenschaft

Currently I am working as an editor for the German-language science magazine “Spektrum der Wissenschaft”. I studied Biophysics at the Humboldt University in Berlin and was actively involved in research for several years. Then I changed my career towards journalism. During my time at DKFZ I was a senior editor for the magazine "einblick". Although I sometimes have the impression that my job is an uncertain job with rather low merits it was the right decision for me.

Paul Schultze-Motel

Scientific Relations Officer, Helmholtz Association

Open science, the unrestricted access to scientific publications and cultural heritage, is an ongoing and future trend in the scientific landscape worldwide. Research publications and other digital objects such as research data and scientific software will thus be publicly available on the internet.
The Helmholtz Association was one of the initial signatories of the „Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities“ in 2003. Since 2005, the Helmholtz Open Science Coordination Office is supporting scientists and their Helmholtz Centres in the implementation of open science.
