Introduction

How can we address the complexity and cost of applying science to societal challenges?

Open science and collaborative R&D may help.[1][2][3] Open science has been described as "a research accelerator."[4] Open science implies open access[5] but goes beyond it: "Imagine a connected online web of scientific knowledge that integrates and connects data, computer code, chains of scientific reasoning, descriptions of open problems, and beyond ... tightly integrated with a scientific social web that directs scientists' attention where it is most valuable, releasing enormous collaborative potential."[1]

Open science and collaborative approaches are often described as open-source, by analogy with open-source software such as the operating system Linux which powers Google and Amazon — collaboratively created software which is free to use and adapt, and popular for internet infrastructure and scientific research.[6][7] However, this use of "open-source" is unclear. Some people use "open-source" when a project's results are free to use, others when a project's process is highly collaborative.[4]
