<p><b>Open Science Doubleheader on Wednesday, October 24</b></p>

<p><b>10am, Village Campus, Redfield Auditorium: "The power of
open science: experience from the Ocean Health Index"</b> by
Dr. Julia Stewart Lowndes, Mozilla Fellow and marine data
scientist at the National Center for Ecological Analysis and
Synthesis (NCEAS)</p>
<p>Abstract: Our Ocean Health Index team has dramatically improved
our science and its impact by embracing open/data science. We
now borrow practices from software developers, coding
collaboratively in a way that is more reproducible, transparent,
collaborative, and open, with more emphasis on communication.
Because of this, more than 20 international groups are building
off our science and our code for data-driven ocean management
around the world. We’ve shared our story in a recent publication
in Nature Ecology & Evolution (Lowndes et al. 2017) because
at the time we were intimidated to change our practices, but we
are living proof that it’s possible and beneficial. By
describing specific tools and how we incrementally began using
them for the Ocean Health Index project, we hope to encourage
others in the scientific community to do the same — so we can
all produce better science in less time.<br>
<br>
Bio: As Science Program Lead for the Ocean Health Index (OHI),
Dr. Julia Stewart Lowndes works to bridge marine science, data
science, and management, and leads trainings through OHI, NCEAS,
Software Carpentry, RLadies, and Eco-Data-Science.<br>

<p><b>Noon, Quissett Campus, Clark 507: Lunch and Learn on Jupyter
Notebooks</b> by Joe Futrelle (WHOI IS)</p>
<p>The Jupyter Notebook is an open-source browser-based
environment for developing and documenting code, exploring data,
and sharing your work in the form of executable "notebooks". It
provides several novel features compared to most development
environments, including mixing executable code and
documentation, embedding interactive visualizations, and support
for rich text with equation rendering.</p>
<p>Although Jupyter is Python-based, it supports dozens of other
programming languages, and enables the use of multiple languages
within a single notebook. Popular websites such as GitHub
provide ways of sharing and viewing Jupyter notebooks, and tools
such as JupyterHub enable hosting Jupyter notebooks. This
presentation will give an overview of Jupyter, demonstrate some
examples, and discuss pros and cons of the notebook approach.</p>
<p> Limited Pizza will be available. Sponsored by WHOI IS.</p>
