Description
Summary:The dissemination of scientific information has become faster and more efficient, above all, through the development of modern information and communication technologies. The widespread use of these technologies for data collection, processing and analysis has created what authors like Tim Gray call the fourth paradigm of science, or eScience. Today, practices related to Open Science have had a powerful impact on how researchers communicate their findings. On this basis, this paper proposes a conceptual model of scientific communication inspired by the concepts of Open Science. It shows that the practices of scientific communication described by conventional models, such as those of Garvey and Griffith and idealized by Hurd, can serve as a basis for analyzing contemporary scientific communication, but they must be adapted to the current reality.
