Persistent identifiers - a fundamental infrastructure of today's research
Referentin: Britta Dreyer
Persistent identifiers (PIDs) are indispensable to modern research because they ensure the discoverability, identifiability, and traceability of scientific results. If fully adopted, PIDs describe every object, entity and activity throughout the research lifecycle. PIDs contribute to the integrity of scientific communication and also to its reproducibility. The application of the FAIR principles as guidelines for the implementation of open science relies on PIDs and their standardized metadata.
While the persistent identification of entities e.g., researchers, organizations, research funders is important for the discoverability, verifiability, and quality control of research outputs and their attribution, the associated metadata, describing the entities offers numerous additional values: the integration and linking of research objects via their metadata are making the PID graph a reality, showing at a glance all individuals and organizations involved in the research process, research outputs as data, software, samples and processes e.g. funding, project events – presenting a 360° view of linked open science.
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.
