DESCRIPTION:Computational narratives like Jupyter\, MyST Markdown\, R-Markd
 own\, and Quarto are amazing for doing science. You can combine narrative\
 , code\, data and images\, conducting your analysis while also creating in
 formation to share. However\, the workflow has been that notebooks are whe
 re you do the work\, but you need to publish a pdf article to advertise th
 e work\, and this is the research output that most people see. That proces
 s not only creates extra work\, but we're losing key information\, amazing
  graphics\, interactive visualizations\, and a connection to the code and 
 data.\n\nFlattening science into a published pdf sacrifices reproducibilit
 y and valuable context for others to build on the research. We’re contin
 uing to share our science in 19th century ways\, as if we need to send pri
 nted\, physical copies of our work to people in the mail. This is both a b
 oring and ineffective way to communicate science and also reduces the visi
 bility and value to the modular components of research. The data\, images\
 , and code all have individual value\, especially as we think about new wa
 ys for humans and machines to build on existing science for new impact. \n
 \nThe Open Exchange Infrastructure (OXA\, https://oxa.dev) is a community 
 standard for scientific publishing built for modular and computational sci
 ence. Initial contributors include Stencila\, eLife\, Posit\, PLOS\, openR
 xiv\, Curvenote\, NeuroLibre\, and Creative Commons — representing a new
  document format that brings together the best of Jupyter Notebooks\, Quar
 to\, MyST Markdown\, and publishing/archiving standards to enable new scie
 ntific publishing experiences and workflows. OXA additionally allows many 
 tools and existing formats to connect with each other and into traditional
  publishing workflows\, like Journal Article Tag Suite (JATS XML) and Manu
 script Exchange Common Approach (MECA). This means that what you share is 
 interactive and engaging and your research products\, like large scale mic
 roscopy images (e.g. OME-Zarr)\, are first-class citizens where image data
 sets\, notebooks\, and other research products are highlighted not hidden.
 \n\nIn this talk we’re sharing more on the technical architecture of the
  format and a pilot between openRxiv (the non-profit organization behind t
 he largest biomedical preprint servers: bioRxiv and medRxiv) and Curvenote
  (a scientific content management system that also hosts the SciPy Proceed
 ings) to migrate 500k preprints (8.1TB) to OXA and show real-world example
 s of interactive scientific content\, modular attribution\, and what’s p
 ossible when the pieces are connected and scientific research can be open\
 , engaging and match what’s possible with our current technology - to ch
 ange the way we share and do science. This isn’t a future vision\, this 
 is what is already happening today.
