The Twelve Days of (OSP) Christmas
Lyrics by: An old friend of OSP
On the first day of Christmas in science policy,
We started our engagement strategy!
On the second day of Christmas in science policy,
Terminology in clinical research,
And we started our engagement strategy.
On the third day of Christmas in science policy,
An AI policy resource, terminology in clinical research,
And we started our engagement strategy.
On the fourth day of Christmas in science policy,
Scientific integrity, an AI policy resource, terminology in clinical research,
And we started our engagement strategy.
On the fifth day of Christmas in science policy,
ENGAGE is the best acronym!!
Scientific integrity, an AI policy resource, terminology in clinical research,
Now we’ve named our engagement strategy.
On the sixth day of Christmas in science policy,
We honored Tuskeegee survivors,
ENGAGE is the best acronym!!
Scientific integrity, an AI policy resource, terminology in clinical research,
On the road with our engagement strategy!
On the seventh day of Christmas in science policy,
Rolled out the new DURC policy,
Honored Tuskeegee survivors,
ENGAGE is the best acronym!!
Scientific integrity, an AI policy resource, terminology in clinical research,
And implementing the engagement strategy.
On the eighth day of Christmas in science policy,
New language in informed consent.
Rolled out new DURC policy, honored Tuskeegee survivors,
ENGAGE is the best acronym!!
Scientific integrity, an AI policy resource, terminology in clinical research,
And even more engagement strategy!
On the ninth day of Christmas in science policy,
Hired awesome summer interns, informed consent language,
Rolled out new DURC policy, honored Tuskeegee survivors,
ENGAGE is the best acronym!!
Scientific integrity, an AI policy resource, terminology in clinical research,
Talked to more folks about engagement strategy!
On the tenth day of Christmas in science policy,
Went to Geneva for the BWTC,
Awesome summer interns, informed consent language,
Rolled out new DURC policy, honored Tuskeegee survivors,
ENGAGE is the best acronym!!
Scientific integrity, an AI policy resource, terminology in clinical research,
Still excited about engagement strategy!
On the eleventh day of Christmas in science policy,
Public access policy!
Geneva is expensive, awesome summer interns, informed consent language,
Rolled out new DURC policy, honored Tuskeegee survivors,
ENGAGE is the best acronym!!
Scientific integrity, an AI policy resource, terminology in clinical research,
Have I mentioned our engagement strategy?
On the twelfth day of Christmas in science policy,
Jessica Tucker is named Deputy!
Public access policy, diplomacy in Geneva, awesome summer interns, informed consent language,
Rolled out new DURC policy, honored Tuskeegee survivors,
ENGAGE is the best acronym!!
Scientific integrity, an AI policy resource, terminology in clinical research,
And continued our engagement strategy!
