Open science can save lives, says Heidi Laine, PhD candidate and research administration specialist at the University of Helsinki.

Research can provide us with tools for overcoming diseases, environmental problems and other major challenges. That is why policy-makers, journalists and citizens should have an open access to information.

Laine calls for a radical openness of science. That means the whole research process – data, methods, and results – should be openly available for use.

Imagine if science was done according to similar principles as Wikipedia: everyone would see how research is done and what kinds of data and tools are used. Participating in research and creation of new knowledge would be possible for anyone.

When research and its findings are openly available, we are more likely to see significant breakthroughs. These breakthroughs can help us save lives, and save the environment.
