Open Science and Open Source

The Carpentries is a non-profit organization dedicated to improve computational literacy among scientists of all disciplines and teach foundational skills for reproducible research.
Members of our working group are certified Carpentries Instructors and participate in giving workshops. Contact us if you are interested in hosting a Carpentries workshop or are interested in becoming an instructor yourself. Furthermore, we develop and maintain the Carpentries Incubator lesson for the Julia programming language.

We see the German association for research software (de-RSE) as an important pillar in the future of computationally aided research. Improving quality and reuse of scientific software as well as acknowledgment of software as a research outcome is its mission.
We actively participate in this movement and co-founded the regional chapter for Lower Saxony and Hannover (HaRSE).

The JuliaPlots organization provides libraries and tools for visualizations in the Julia programming language. A central role plays the package Plots.jl by providing a unified interface for many different plotting backends.
We help maintaining and developing this open source project.

The SciML ecosystem is a major driver of innovation and high quality software in the Julia programming language. It contains state of the art solvers for differential equations, root finding and optimization algorithms as well as interfaces to modern machine learning techniques.
We are using this software in many of our research projects and are constantly looking for new applications.

The Turing Way is an open source handbook on reproducible, ethical and collaborative data science. We identify with the values shared in this guide and help sustaining this valuable resource where possible.
