National Open Science Week: Coding Café and Community Café at Radboud

During the National Open Science Week, the Open Science Community Nijmegen (OSCN) is organising two events for anyone who'd like to learn more about Open Science: a Coding Café and a Community Café. Both take place on 17 September 2026.

Coding Café + lunch (11:30–12:30, EOS N 00.330)

Ever wondered what metadata actually is, why it matters, and how you can automate its creation? At the Coding Café, you'll get hands-on experience with exactly that. Bring your own laptop to code along with others. Everyone is welcome, regardless of experience level, and there's a free pizza lunch. The Coding Café is being organized in collaboration with eScience Center. 

You can sign up for the Coding Café via the QR codes on the poster below or through this registration link.

Community Café (16:00–18:30, EOS 01.220 & The Yard)

Curious about what your colleagues at Radboud University are doing in the areas of open education, citizen science, open software, and more? The Community Café kicks off at 16:00 with inspiring presentations showcasing the diversity of open science and the community behind it. From 16:45, there's a drinks reception in The Yard with free drinks and snacks to keep the conversation going.

You can sign up for the Community Café through this registration link.
