Description
Let's face it: the overwhelming majority of current scientific code is siloed away into one-off scripts and notebooks, where the only real mechanism for re-using and building upon it is good old copy and paste. In order to keep "building upon the shoulders of giants", we need to achieve not only reproducibility of individual results, but also true reusuability of research methods, that can be shared, built upon, and deployed by users across the world.
At this BoF, we invite the community to share their tools and workflows for reusable science, and hope to explore how we can encourage users to expand beyond the current notebook-centric monoculture and toward holistic, open, modular and interoperable approaches to conducting research and developing scientific code.
The ideas and discussion at the BoF and in this document will inform future guides and resources on this topic, to be hosted on central community platforms like the Scientific Python organization
Schedule
5:45 - What is reusable research and why it is important, and what are the goals & outcomes of the BoF?
