The Douglas Research Centre has committed to open science at the institutional level. The Douglas Open Science Program aims to create a framework that supports transparent, collaborative, and responsible research that will achieve cultural change. Building on this foundation, the Open Science Team and D3SM community are taking a leading role in putting these principles into practice within the digital mental health space.

​

D3SM members and project teams act as open science champions, testing new approaches, sharing tools, documenting processes, and developing reproducible, privacy-conscious research workflows. Across every stage of project development, our teams develop practical ways to make digital mental health innovation more open, ethical, and accessible.
