Beth Bayley is the Open Science Manager at Karger Publishers, a health sciences publisher based in Switzerland. She co-leads Karger’s Open Science Task Force as well as the Karger Ambassadors Program. Specializing in Open Access since 2010, Beth is engaged with strategy, policy, and communications to support Karger's “open for Open“ drive toward a sustainable transition to Open Access that will serve all stakeholders, from libraries to authors to research funders and the broader public.
In this episode, Beth shares her journey into scholarly publishing and her role in promoting Open Science. She started with a background in journalism before joining Karger.
Beth discusses how Karger embraced Open Access publishing early, launching its first Open Access journal in 2017. Over time, her role expanded to Open Science, which includes supporting researchers with best practices beyond Open Access, such as open data, FAIR data principles, and open peer review.
Jo and Beth further highlight the importance of making research data more accessible while considering ethical concerns, especially in medical and clinical research. The conversation also touches on open methodology—ensuring that research methods, tools, and software are transparently shared to enhance reproducibility.
