Research and/or work interests: Entomology; ecology; conservation; insect-plant interactions. How did you become interested in open research?

What is an open / reliable / transparent science practice that you admire but have not yet adopted in your own work? Publishing my code (at all) and my data (in a way that is easy to understand and use). This is so much work, and that work has to be done after you have finished the project.
