The basic ingredients to Open Science: Scientific research shared across disciplines using Science 2.0 tools and open licenses.

Open Science is a movement aimed at an increased transparency of scientific research and a wider sharing of its results, both within and beyond the scientific community.

As such, it is concerned with the handling of data and the publication, in academic journals or on Web 2.0 platforms, of research results derived from those data, along with the protocols and code used to generate them. As such, Open Science can be considered an umbrella term for a number of rather independent movements with similar goals, like Open Data and Open Access — both inspired by the Open Source movement.
