US funders meet to discuss cultural change in open science

In January, Frontiers hosted a discussion forum for United States-based
research funders to explore the challenges and opportunities funders face
in supporting and incentivizing open science. Representatives from the Gordon
and Betty Moore Foundation <https://www.moore.org/>, the Bill and Melinda
Gates Foundation <https://www.gatesfoundation.org/>, the National
Institutes of Health <https://www.nih.gov/>, the Howard Hughes Medical
Institute <https://www.hhmi.org/>, and the Alzheimer’s Association
<https://www.alz.org/> came together to address three major topics:

   -

   The role of funders in leading open access
   -

   Prominent, practical, and promising examples of open access
   -

   New initiatives to define and shape open access
