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 first touch upon the principles of Open Science and the queston of reproducibile research. Then, I focus on practical approaches to make research software and data FARC, that is Findable (using metadata), Accessible (long-time preservation), Referenceable (point to a specific version) and Citable (give credit, attribution), as well as good practices to cite others' code and data.I finally make the point that to go further, editors must now actively support code and data ciation, evaluation metrics must change to give credit for and reward impactful code and data, and all of that shall require a true cultural shift of researchers' mindset.

| selected citations These citations are derived from selected sources. This is an alternative to the "Influence" indicator, which also reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | 0 | |
| popularity This indicator reflects the "current" impact/attention (the "hype") of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network. | Average | |
| influence This indicator reflects the overall/total impact of an article in the research community at large, based on the underlying citation network (diachronically). | Average | |
| impulse This indicator reflects the initial momentum of an article directly after its publication, based on the underlying citation network. | Average |
