📘 New Publication: Promising stories from the GraspOS Pilot studies

In this booklet, we present the implementation pathways and outcomes of the nine GraspOS Pilot studies, aimed at advancing Responsible Research Assessment (RRA) and strengthening Open Science practices across the European Research Area.

In the past three years, the GraspOS Pilots co-designed, validated, and evaluated Open Science-aware indicators, tools, and services for RRA across three assessment contexts:
* Funding agencies and national stakeholders using infrastructure to support funding evaluation processes.
* Universities, including departments and research groups, interested in recruitment and assessment.
* Thematic disciplines that establish domain-specific assessment criteria aligned with disciplinary needs.
The booklet offers concise narratives highlighting the activities, results, and insights from each Pilot.

⏰ Starting today at 11.00 CET: don't miss our last GraspOS webinar on GoTriple's developments: Knowledge graphs and responsible metrics for SSH assessment

The GoTriple platform is adding new discovery and enrichment features under European projects LUMEN and GRAPHIA. This webinar will show how these technical developments support the responsible use of quantitative metrics in research assessment, and how knowledge graphs can offer significant insights in the SSH domain.

💫#OpeningRA Day -2!

📌Session C: Recognition of Contributions to #OpenScience

This session will highlight innovative approaches to make researchers’ Open Science practices and diverse contributions more visible and valued.

Through practical examples such as enhanced researcher profiles, interoperable assessment tools, and hybrid indicators, speakers will explore how openness, collaboration, and societal impact can be better integrated into research evaluation frameworks.

🎤 with Laura Himanen, Ioana Spanache, Zenia Xenou & Giulia Malaguarnera, Katri Rintamäki, & Heikki Laitinen

📌Session B: Transparency & Inclusivity of Assessment Processes

This session will delve into ways to make research assessment more transparent, inclusive, and aligned with the principles of responsible research evaluation. Speakers will present practical frameworks, institutional case studies, and community-driven pilots, demonstrating how infrastructures like the SCOPE+i Framework, together with co-creation processes, and policy reforms can open up assessment practices to better recognise diverse research contributions and value different contexts.

🎤 with @tatumcc, @andremanno, and Carol Delmazo

💫 Opening Research Assessment is taking place next week!

📌 Session A: Open Infrastructures for Responsible Research Assessment

This session will explore how open infrastructures can transform the way research is assessed, aligning evaluation practices with Open Science principles. Through insights from the #GraspOS project and its pilot implementations, speakers will showcase how open, interoperable tools and data can support more transparent, inclusive, and context-sensitive approaches to research assessment.

🎤 with @vergoulis, @LudoWaltman, Laurent Romary, and Vladimir Otasevic

Welcome! You are invited to join a meeting: 6th GraspOS Webinar: Reforming Researcher Assessment with OPUS. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the meeting.

Research assessment is traditionally focused on publications in high-impact factor journals and bibliometrics despite the fact that researchers conduct a wide variety of activities in their daily lives. The recent shift towards Open Science is also typically ignored in assessment. The OPUS project is developing a Researcher Assessment Framework (RAF) which offers a comprehensive suite of indicators for universities and research funders to reform how they assess their researchers and incentivise and reward Open Science. Speaker: Gareth O’Neill (Technopolis Group and OPUS Project) Moderator: Zenia Xenou (OpenAIRE) * This webinar will be recorded and the recording will be shared via the organiser's channels. By registering you accept the terms on which it will take place.
