What is the Deakin Open Research Network?

The Deakin Open Research Network is a collection of researchers and research-associated workers at Deakin University. It aims to facilitate the growth of Open practices by bringing together independently motivated and like-minded people, and providing a platform for the sharing of resources.

Not sure if you're an open researcher? Come along to some of our events, or fill in the survey so we can link you up with some local friends.

DORN is inspired by the Open Science Community Utrecht and is a member of the Melbourne Open Research Network
