Winner of OxCIN Open Science Ambassadors Award
We are excited to announce the winners of the Open Science Ambassadors Awards!
The Early Career Researcher Category Award goes to Gaurav Bhalerao for enhancing the impact of brain imaging data through open research practices, while also advancing a culture of open research within their department and across the wider University. The Student Category Award is presented to Levi Kumle for consistently demonstrating an outstanding commitment to open research practices through tool development, empirical research, training, advocacy, and citizenship. We would also like to recognise the recipients of commendations, whose contributions reflect an exceptional commitment to openness, collaboration, and research integrity across our community. Visit our webpage to learn more about the awards and the awardees’ incredible work. Please join us on 25 March 2026 at the OxCIN United Open Science session, where we will hear from both award winners. We look forward to celebrating with you then!
