After three invitations 32 responded to the survey, the purpose was to obtain data that can demonstrate the researchers' perception of open access and open data in scientific publication and elements associated with visibility, recognition, achievement of prestige, among others related to open access.The survey showed that a large majority of respondents recognize the benefits of sharing unpublished research data, justifying their optimistic positions, however, these positions should be seen as extraordinary opportunities for dialogue with other actions to expand the knowledge and involvement of researchers with the theme, as well as pointed out that most do not yet practice data sharing.The research result points to the need to build an internal training policy for the adoption of new scientific communication practices.
