My master thesis was recently awarded the Brain Structure and Function Best Paper Award and here is a blogpost about it! The OHBM team also wrote this SciComm piece about it!

Passing the baton to Carmen and Jakob: the new BordeauxTea hosts!
I’m very happy to know that my baby project will be taken care of by two good friends and colleagues! Read more about our journey in the link below!
The Neuro – Irv and Helga Cooper Foundation Open Science Prize!
Last night, I received one of the runner-up Trainee prizes from The Neuro – Irv and Helga Cooper Foundation! My application highlighted my Open Science work in France and the Netherlands. I’m super happy to have my efforts recognized internationally, and truly thankful to everyone who has supported me in this journey. A special shout to Fernando Santos, Linda Douw, and Cristina Lemos!🎉
The ANW OSWG snagged a spot at OLS cohort 8 & pocketed the VU challenge award!
The Open Science Working Group from the Anatomy and Neurosciences department hit the jackpot! We applied and were selected for the 8th cohort of the OLS training program. Drum roll, please! And what’s more exciting? We won a whopping 3K from the VU Challenge Award to work on our super-duper project: Crafting a Handbook for Open Science in Neuroscience 🎉🎉🎉
The 1st Open Science Workshop @ Bordeaux Neurocampus was a big success!!!
After months of preparation, the 1st Bordeaux Neurocampus Open Science Workshop is now over and leaves behind a great success and an eager-to-continue community of Open Science enthusiasts!
Highlights can be seen here.
Clean & Readable Code @ EPFL
Last week, I had the great opportunity to give a workshop on how to write clean and readable code at the ORPER summer school at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL). Furthermore, I participated in a panel discussion with Russ Poldrack, Zoltan Dienes, and Juliette Boscheron (event organizer & a good friend) about changing the research incentives toward Open Science values.
Open Science talk @ ULaval
Last month, I had a great time at the Institut Intelligence et données (Université Laval) in Canada, where I gave a talk entitled “The ‘why, what, and how’ of Open Science and its impact on my professional (and personal) journey.” The audience was super responsive and asked several great questions – what a pleasure it was to be there!
BordeauxTea @ Institut Pasteur!
Earlier this year, Fjola Hyseni and I were at Institut Pasteur for the Recherche Reproductible days to present our BordeauxTea (ReproducibiliTea journal club from the Bordeaux Neurocampus) and share our experience so far with Open Science in our Ph.D. The event focused on reproducibility in science and started assembling a French network for reproducible research. It was a great learning experience – thanks to the organizers for inviting us to participate and contribute to this discussion!
