Franck MICHEL - Seminar on Open Science and reproducible science, Apr. 14th 2026

Franck Michel, will give a seminar on April 14th 2026, at 2:00 p.m., at the Inria center of Université Côte d'Azur in the Kahn building, room K1.

The presentation will be made in either English or French depending on the audience.
 

Title

[article+code+data] : a virtuous tryptic towards reproducibility

Abstract

Too often, the methods described in research papers are not reproducible because the code and/or data are simply not provided. As a result, it is hardly possible to verify the results and build upon these works. The Open Science movement is meant to fix this by fostering the unhindered spreading of the results, methods and products of scientific research. It is based on the open access to publications, data and source codes.
In the seminar, I will first touch upon the principles of Open Science and the goals of reproducibility of experiments. Then, I'll focus on practical approaches that can allow us to make our codes and data findable (using metadata), accessible (public repositories and long-time preservation with HAL, SoftwareHeritage, recherche.data.gouv.fr etc.), referenceable (point to a specific version) and citable (give credit, attribution), as well as good practices to cite others' codes and data.
 

The targetted audience is primarily PhD students, postdocs, engineers, interns, but everyone is welcome to join in. For PhD students of the STIC doctoral school, this will count as a training on Adum.
