Dear readers,
The holidays are over, and we are gradually entering the new academic year. In the September issue of the EOSC CZ newsletter, we provide information about the new Task Forces of the EOSC Association, where Czech experts have once again taken leadership positions. Learn more about the National EOSC CZ Conference and the call for candidates for four directors of the EOSC Association. This issue also brings training sessions, other open science events, and an interview with Marek Cebecauer, a biochemist and a pioneer in imaging techniques, who is involved in immunological research and scientific data management.
Enjoy your reading!

The EOSC Association Task Forces are key in developing the European Open Science Cloud. These teams, composed of experts and volunteers from all over Europe, are crucial for developing key areas in the implementation of EOSC. The new reorganisation for the 2024–2025 period has brought significant changes, including the involvement of fourteen Czech representatives, two of whom have joined the task force's leadership.

On 26 November, the National EOSC CZ Conference, titled "From Storage to Repositories", will take place at the Occidental Hotel in Prague. This conference offers a unique opportunity to learn more about the implementation of EOSC in the Czech Republic and the benefits and practical solutions the initiative brings to the scientific community. The enormous interest of the conference participants has filled its capacity, but we will soon offer additional attendees the option to join online.

The call for candidates for four EOSC Association Board of Director positions has been launched for the 2024 elections, which will take place during the 9th General Assembly. Members interested in potentially serving on the Board for either one or three years are encouraged to apply. Currently, there is a need for candidates with specific skills, including political insight, policy expertise, and relevant technological know-how.

Marek Cebecauer is a biochemist and a pioneer in imaging techniques who is involved in immunology research and also in scientific data management. In this interview, he explains how chance encounters with leading experts led him to microscopy and the challenges of working with complex data. He shares how open science and automation can make data management more accessible and transparent and why open science is crucial for the future of scientific research.
