Pen-Yuan Hsing

Interdisciplinary researcher studying open research and metascience, with a goal of improving how research is done in any discipline.

I act in an advisory capacity to UNESCO and NASA on developing policies to encourage open research. Currently, I am a postdoctoral researcher evaluating the potential of a new open publishing platform called Octopus, during which I employed qualitative research methods.

In addition, I am a co-founder of the MammalWeb project for citizen science wildlife monitoring with camera traps. I am also a board member of the Open Science Hardware Foundation, and in the elected leadership of the Gathering for Open Science Hardware. Both advocate for the role of open source hardware in open science.
