About the GW4 Open Research Prize 2023
“The winners of the inaugural GW4 Open Research Prize, celebrating best practice in open research, have been recognised in an online prize awards event, organised by Library Services Teams from across the GW4 Alliance universities and led, for this year, by the University of Bristol.
Open research is a broad range of practices which, when combined, make research more accessible, transparent, reproducible and visible.
Professor Marcus Munafò, Associate Pro Vice-Chancellor for Research Culture at the University of Bristol, explains: “Open Research is important from a number of perspectives, encouraging best practice, allowing data to be shared and re-used by others, and fostering good levels of quality control – greater transparency of work allows for scrutiny and error detection, improving our outputs. Significantly, academic work is often funded through public money and charitable donations. Making our work as open as possible allows those who have ultimately funded it to access the findings of our research – increasing its impact.”
The Prize, which was delivered as part of GW4’s Open Research Week – an initiative by the universities of Bath, Bristol, Cardiff and Exeter – was first introduced by the University of Bristol in 2021 to celebrate and recognise the excellent work of researchers in making their research more accessible to all, thereby increasing its potential impact. For 2023, the Prize was extended to researchers from across all four Alliance universities.” (Source GW4 Open Research Prize 2023 – Winners Announced! – GW4)
