The Nelson Memo, issued by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, marks a significant step towards enhancing public access to federally funded research. This workshop is designed to help researchers understand the implications of the memo and how it affects their work, publications, and collaboration with the broader community. Participants will explore the principles and policies outlined in the Nelson Memo, discuss best practices for complying with public access and data sharing requirements, and learn how to leverage public access to increase the impact and visibility of their research.
