Dr Brian Nosek is co-founder and executive director of the Center for Open Science (COS) that operates the Open Science Framework (OSF), acollaborative management service for registering studies and archiving and sharing research materials and data. The COS is enabling open and reproducible research practices worldwide. Brian is also a professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Virginia. He received his PhD from Yale University in 2002. He co-founded Project Implicit, a multi-university collaboration for research and education investigating implicit cognition—thoughts and feelings that occur outside of awareness or control.
