Science - CC Wiki

http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Science

Formerly Science Commons. Key projects [from the wiki]:
  • Making scientific research “re-useful” — Via the Scholar's Copyright Project, we develop and promote policy and tools to help people and organizations open and mark their published research as Open Access or Open Data.
  • Enabling “one-click” access to research tools — Via the Materials Transfer Project, we offer a suite of standardized contracts to bring the efficiencies and economies of scale from e-commerce to the world of scientific tools, so researchers can easily replicate, verify, and extend research.
  • Integrating fragmented information sources — Via the Neurocommons project, we help researchers find, analyze, and use data from disparate sources through our R&D around marking and integrating the information with a common, computer-readable language.
