Abstract

Introduction: Scientific communication requires new standards that allows a quick diffusion of scientific results, acquiring an eminent important in the Health Sciences. Objective: Describe the basis for the implementation of open Science. Method: A bibliographic review was developed in Scopus, SciELO, Pubmed and RedALyC databases, citing 27 articles. Search formulas obtained by the combination of descriptors and the OR and AND operators were used. Results: Open science allows a quick diffusion and good positioning of scientific production, evaluation of the reliability of studies and to detect conflicts of interest. A good infrastructure is needed for the scientific publications and to manipulate all research data, as well as policies to limit their use. Open science does not change the motivation and objectives of research, but rather how science is done and how disseminated. Conclusions: Open science is based on free and unrestricted access to information, allowing open access to codes, data, publications, as well as open evaluation processes
