Open research data from diverse scientific domains will be at the centre of this 2-day creative event, as well as the one big question: how can we get the most out of the huge potential of Open Data in scientific research?
  
-At the hackdays, the institutions supporting the [[http://openresearchdata.ch|OpenResearchData.ch]] project ([[http://forscenter.ch|FORS]], [[http://www.dhlab.unibas.ch|Digital Humanities Lab, University of Basel]], [[https://www1.ethz.ch/id/services/list/sis/index_EN|ETH SIS]] / [[http://www.isb-sib.ch|Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics]]) together with other producers of research data, their aggregators and publishers, will make particularly interesting data from their respective scientific domains available for further playful, creative or scientific use.+With amazing speakers and team leaders, from Bastian Greshake and his open-source genetics network [[https://opensnp.org|openSNP]] to [[http://plazi.org/|biodiversity data]] with Donat Agosti or black holes and [[http://www.galaxyzoo.org|galaxies]] with Kevin Schawinski, to an engaging panel on [[http://make.opendata.ch/forum/discussion/comment/285#Comment_285|Data Ethics]], the event's [[https://docs.google.com/a/opendata.ch/document/d/1hrTpaqAcAdylkWr-y_e5o04tEBHzlXZjo7Vn9noQcDg/edit?usp=sharing|schedule]] is pointing towards the great potential of open research data. We'll listen, but first and foremost we'll make things happen, putting in two days of intensive work to make data used and useful — all while having a great time together.
  
-The hackdays are not only about data, but also the barriers for effectively reuse of research data: co/ownership, licenses, citation… and many more. Participants will form teams around a topic/challenge, which they would like to discuss/solve – whether making an application re-using data, or drafting a concept about an innovative approach to current conditions.+====== Projects ======
