Update. This article in Nature makes the case that reusing #OpenData for new purposes is a good solution for "cash-strapped and early-career researchers" who don't have the means to generate their own. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-00434-x True enough. But it undervalues the utility of past data for all relevant new projects, even well-funded new projects. The present thread gives some examples. Open data are not only, and not even primarily, for the indigent. They're for the savvy, those who notice their relevance, regardless of means. #Data #ECR #Funding #OpenScience #Reuse #ScholComm
