--- title: Opening Influenza Research | Communities of Practice description: Preliminary research demonstrates that the influenza community sees value in preregistration and data sharing, the publication of null results, and replication studies. However, there is a mismatch in support for open science and using open science practices in research (Open Scholarship Survey, 2022). COS believes that the gap between support and practice can be narrowed through learning opportunities. image: https://www.cos.io/hubfs/flu%20lab%20thumb.png --- - Our sites: - [OSF](https://osf.io) - [TOP Guidelines](https://www.cos.io/initiatives/top-guidelines?hsLang=en) - [* *Bluesky](https://bsky.app/profile/cos.io)[* *Mastodon](https://fosstodon.org/@CenterforOpenScience)[* *Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/company/center-for-open-science/)[* *YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/@CenterforOpenScience) - [**  Shop](https://www.redbubble.com/people/OpenScience/shop) - [**  Donate](https://www.cos.io/support-cos?hsLang=en) [![Center for Open Science](https://www.cos.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Logos/COS%202024/cos-full-tag-h.png?width=2000&height=293&name=cos-full-tag-h.png "Center for Open Science")](https://www.cos.io?hsLang=en) ** ** ![Flu Lab Logo with Text](https://www.cos.io/hubfs/Logos/RPCB/flu%20lab%20small.png) ![Flu Lab Logo with Text](https://www.cos.io/hubfs/flu%20lab%20web%20final.png) - [Overview](https://www.cos.io/flu-lab?hsLang=en) - [Introduction to Open Science](https://www.cos.io/flu-lab-intro-to-open-science?hsLang=en) - [Open Science Practices](https://www.cos.io/flu-lab-open-science-practices?hsLang=en) - [Resources for Teaching](https://www.cos.io/flu-lab-resources-for-teaching?hsLang=en) - [Communities of Practice](https://www.cos.io/flu-lab-communitites-of-practice?hsLang=en) - [**Resources on OSF](https://osf.io/vw8ek/) ## Communities of Practice ### Learn more about communities of practice and join a community below.   ### FORRT The Framework for Open and Reproducible Research Training (FORRT) works to advance research transparency, reproducibility, rigor, and ethics through pedagogical reform and meta-scientific research.
