Welcome to the special issue of EuroScientist focusing on uberisation of science.
Much has been debated about the impact of technologies on the research and innovation process. The truth is that these changes signify the beginning of a new era. With an increased reliance on geographically-distributed teams, tomorrow’s researchers are going to be able to reach unprecedented scales of collaborations, not just limited to cooperation between well-funded labs. Researchers from wider afield, including from territories with lower level of research funding, will finally be able to more systematically contribute to the great scientific endeavour of the future.
