Abstract:
Narrative of open science is becoming popular as the idea of openness relates to the availability, accessibility, transparency and replicability of the scientific data and processes. At the downside, open science, raises several ethical questions. Openness in sensitive data can lead to its misuse by compromising anonymity and confidentiality, or may be used for other nefarious purposes, besides being the costly nature of the open models. Extensive debates and dialogues among the policy experts, scientists and bioethicists in the context of weighing risks vs benefits may help in devising balanced strategies.
