Open Science & Research Integrity

Publishing

We publish our papers as Open Access and curate online resources. Since 2018, we also use pre-print servers to share our work as soon as possible. You can browse our publications and bioRxiv record. Of course, we like also to share our work with the general public with outreach initiatives.

Check if the journal complies with Plan S.

Software

All our recent code, analytical tools, simulations and mathematics are in the public domain. The relevant GitHub repositories are the following:

Alessandro Esposito

Kalina Haas

Hardware

Our hardware is well described in our publications and since 2018, we invested more resources to share even more open architectures and control software. We share 3D printing designs in Thingiverse. Would you need to see our developments or get help to establish similar systems, do contact us.
