Hi Wikimedia Community

We (Chelle Gentemann, Brian Nosek, Rebecca Morss, and myself) are excited to announce an uncommon session at the upcoming AGU 2023 Fall Meeting (largest annual gathering of Earth, Space, and Data Scientists in the world) that will be an exceptional forum for our community!

"Flourishing Science Commons: Data Science, Open Science, and Knowledge Communities" (https://tinyurl.com/ScienceFlourishing)

We would love for you to share your work there and to join us in any capacity. Abstract submissions are open now (due August 2) and we are always interested in non-traditional ideas about how to make this a meaningful conversation and event.

See below for more information.

Thank you for your consideration and enthusiasm, Ryan McGranaghan (NASA JPL; http://www.ryanmcgranaghan.com/) on behalf of Chelle Gentemann (NASA TOPS; https://cgentemann.github.io/) Brian Nosek (Center for Open Science; https://www.projectimplicit.net/nosek/interests.htm) Rebecca Morss (UCAR; https://staff.ucar.edu/users/morss)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good day

The American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting has historically been a forum for latest results in some particular domain and you are undoubtedly receiving email after email about those sessions.

This one is different. "The most fruitful areas for the growth of the sciences were those which had been neglected as a no-man's land between the various established fields.” - Norbert Weiner (1961)

Join us for “Flourishing Science Commons: Data Science, Open Science, and Knowledge Communities,” a radically interdisciplinary session that will be a frontier forum for the discussion, action, and cutting-edge research into the new approaches to science and collaboration that are required to respond to our grandest questions.

Just a few of the areas of contribution that are invited: knowledge representation (semantic technologies and knowledge graphs), convergence research, network analyses, the role of machine learning and artificial intelligence for scientific problems, culture and philosophy of science. Additionally, we invite domain-specific talks that employ these ideas, tools, and methods.

Not sure if your research fits - reach out to ryan.m.mcgranaghan@jpl.nasa.gov to ask!

Ultimately, our focus will be driven toward how we create more flourishing scientists, science communities, and scientific discovery.

It might be a different kind of conversation than you usually attend at AGU, but we suggest that it will resonate with and reach back to your research in manifold ways.

Join us to be part of the critical yeast (https://onbeing.org/programs/taking-a-long-view-of-time-and-becoming-critica...) for this vital conversation for all scientific communities, thinking about what flourishing looks like for scientists, science communities, and society.

Warm regards, Ryan McGranaghan (NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) on behalf of Chelle Gentemann (NASA Transformation to Open Science (TOPS)) Brian Nosek (University of Virginia; Center for Open Science) Rebecca Morse (University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR)
