🚀 Operando4NeXus Kick-off in Berlin!

The #HMCproject #Operando4NeXus has started. Partners met in #Berlin to align on goals and kick off collaboration.

The project advances #interoperability and #metadata integration in the #NeXus standard, supporting #FAIRdata in photon & neutron science.

Great exchange with @fairmat_nfdi @DAPHNE4NFDI & #SECoP@HMC — metadata is teamwork!

FAIR Principles - GO FAIR

In 2016, the ‘FAIR Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship’ were published in Scientific Data. The authors intended to provide guidelines to improve the Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reuse of digital assets. The principles emphasise machine-actionability (i.e., the capacity of… Continue reading →

What can we actually measure, reliably, when it comes to research data sharing?

OpenAIRE is contributing to the UKRN–MRC pilot on responsible monitoring of research data sharing, using the OpenAIRE Graph and text-mining workflows to analyse Data Availability Statements and support evidence-based approaches to #OpenScience.
