The practice and principles of Open Science have been promoting the openness, sharing, and reuse of research data, particularly those resulting from publicly funded research, contributing to greater trust in science and greater capacity to address global challenges.

The advantages of making publications openly accessible are widely recognized. Its benefits directly impact research by facilitating interdisciplinarity and increasing the visibility of produced knowledge, but they also have social and economic implications, extending research to professionals from other fields, businesses, and interested audiences.

As a Laboratory Associated within its activities, CESAM seeks to ensure a sustainable practice of Open Science by providing public access to databases and scientific publications.
