Title: "Organizing scholarly knowledge and research data with the Open Research Knowledge Graph"
Abstract: The communication of scholarly knowledge has hardly changed for centuries: It's document-based - once as a classic paper essay, now as a PDF. With around 2.5 million new research articles published every year, researchers are drowning in a flood of PDFs, many of which are not machine-readable. We are rethinking knowledge communication: Instead of static PDFs, we are relying on knowledge graphs. TIB is working with partners to link knowledge in a wide variety of forms - texts, images, videos, 3D models and much more - using knowledge graphs. These are intended to represent different research ideas, methods and results in a machine-readable way, so that completely new connections of knowledge come to light. The major global challenges require interdisciplinarity and the merging of knowledge. The Open Research Knowledge Graph developed by TIB can make this possible and revolutionize the sharing of knowledge.
Um den interdisziplinären Austausch anzuregen und zu unterstützen, organisiert die Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration HMC in Kooperation mit der HIDA die Vortragsreihe HMC FAIR Friday. Sie richtet sich an erfahrene Akteure im Forschungsdatenmanagement sowie Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler aller Forschungsbereiche der Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft und darüber hinaus.
HMC FAIR Friday bietet Vorträge von hochrangigen nationalen und internationalen Referentinnen und Referenten, die einem die Welt von FAIRen Daten (noch) näher bringen, einzelne Aspekte vertiefen und zu Diskussionen anregen.
