                      2022, https://www.open-science-conference.eu/ Abstract: This
                      talk will summarise work done within the EC Horizon2020
                      project ON-MERRIT (2019-2022,  https://on-merrit.eu/ ) to
                      investigate risks of cumulative advantage in the transition
                      to Open Science. Open Science holds the promise to make
                      scientific endeavours more inclusive, participatory,
                      understandable, accessible, and re-usable for large
                      audiences. However, making processes open will not per se
                      drive wide re-use or participation unless also accompanied
                      by the capacity (in terms of knowledge, skills, financial
                      resources, technological readiness and motivation) to do so.
                      These capacities vary considerably across regions,
                      institutions and demographics. Those advantaged by such
                      factors will remain potentially privileged, putting Open
                      Science’s agenda of inclusivity at risk of propagating
                      conditions of “cumulative advantage”. Since 2019, the EC
                      Horizon2020 project ON-MERRIT has been investigating these
                      issues using scientometric, sociological and other
                      approaches to examine how these factor influence the ways in
                      which Open Science is taken up (and by whom). As ON-MERRIT
                      concludes, this talk will showcase diverse findings across
                      areas including OA publishing, rewards and incentives and
                      participatory methods. I then concludes by presenting
                      recommendations to mitigate threats co-created with the Open
                      Science community.},
