Why open science is essential for our future
Science shapes every part of our lives, from the medicines we rely on to the food we eat and the health of our planet. But for too long, much of that knowledge has been locked behind barriers.
Hosted on CNBC, Science Unlocked tells the story of why open science matters, how it accelerated life-saving breakthroughs during COVID-19, and why making research openly accessible is essential to solve today’s biggest global challenges, from climate change to human health.
It also shows how open science accelerates innovation, shapes new industries, and helps turn research into economic and societal progress at scale.
