Open Access deposit of funded research, the need for tracking and measuring the impact of these policies becomes more pressing. This international workshop brought together more than 50 experts from research organisations, universities, nonprofits and national agencies to discuss how open technologies can best help in this effort and work towards monitoring the progress of open science itself. <span class="ecae-button ecae-buttonskin-none" style="text-align:left" > <a class="ecae-link" href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/2024/04/24/core-participating-in-the-unesco-open-science-monitoring-framework-launch/"><span>read more...</span></a></span></p></div> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <span class="posted-on"><span class="screen-reader-text">Posted on </span><a href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/2024/04/24/core-participating-in-the-unesco-open-science-monitoring-framework-launch/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published" datetime="2024-04-24T15:57:51+01:00">24th April 2024</time><time class="updated" datetime="2024-04-24T15:57:53+01:00">24th April 2024</time></a></span><span class="byline"><span class="author vcard"><span class="screen-reader-text">Author </span><a class="url fn n" href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/author/davidpride/">David Pride</a></span></span><span class="cat-links"><span class="screen-reader-text">Categories </span><a href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/category/news/" rel="category tag">News</a>, <a href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/category/projects/" rel="category tag">Projects</a></span> </footer> </article> <article id="post-1721" class="post-1721 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-news category-projects"> <header class="entry-header"> <h2 class="entry-title"><a href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/2024/04/02/sofair-is-live-kickoff-progress-and-website-launch/" rel="bookmark">SoFAIR is live!

Much of these software mentions therefore remain concealed within the text of research papers, hampering their discoverability, attribution, and reuse. This, in turn, makes it harder to reproduce research studies. The SoFAIR project (from Making <strong>So</strong>ftware <strong>FAIR</strong>) aims to address this critical issue by enhancing the management of the research software lifecycle and ensuring research software and data adheres to the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) principles. The project will build on the existing capabilities of the open scholarly infrastructures operated by the project partners. SoFAIR is a €499k international project coordinated by (1) The Open University in partnership with (2) INRIA, France; (3) Brno University of Technology, Czech Republic; (4) the Polish Academy of Sciences (PAN), Poland; and (5) The European Molecular Biology Laboratory’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), United Kingdom. SoFAIR is funded under the 2022 CHIST-ERA Open and Reusable Research Data and Software (ORD) call.<span class="ecae-button ecae-buttonskin-none" style="text-align:left" > <a class="ecae-link" href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/2023/11/07/sofair-the-open-university-to-coordinate-new-international-project-to-facilitate-the-reproducibility-of-research-studies/"><span>read more...</span></a></span></p></div> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <span class="posted-on"><span class="screen-reader-text">Posted on </span><a href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/2023/11/07/sofair-the-open-university-to-coordinate-new-international-project-to-facilitate-the-reproducibility-of-research-studies/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published" datetime="2023-11-07T12:07:03+00:00">7th November 2023</time><time class="updated" datetime="2023-11-07T12:07:05+00:00">7th November 2023</time></a></span><span class="byline"><span class="author vcard"><span class="screen-reader-text">Author </span><a class="url fn n" href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/author/davidpride/">David Pride</a></span></span><span class="cat-links"><span class="screen-reader-text">Categories </span><a href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/category/projects/" rel="category tag">Projects</a></span><span class="tags-links"><span class="screen-reader-text">Tags </span><a href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/tag/funding/" rel="tag">funding</a>, <a href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/tag/projects/" rel="tag">projects</a>, <a href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/tag/research/" rel="tag">research</a></span><span class="comments-link"><a href="https://blog.core.ac.uk/2023/11/07/sofair-the-open-university-to-coordinate-new-international-project-to-facilitate-the-reproducibility-of-research-studies/#comments">1 Comment<span class="screen-reader-text"> on SoFAIR: The Open University to coordinate new international project to facilitate the reproducibility of research studies</span></a></span> </footer> </article> </main> </section> </div> <footer id="colophon" class="site-footer" role="contentinfo"> <div class="site-info"> <div class="license"> <p> <a rel="license" href="//creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" title="Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license"><img class="lazy" style="float:right;" src="data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'%20viewBox='0%200%201%201'%3E%3C/svg%3E" data-src="//i.creativecommons.org/l/by/4.0/88x31.png" alt="License"></a> </p> <div style="display: inline;" xmlns:cc="http://creativecommons.org/ns#" about="http://creativecommons.org"> <p> <small> Except where otherwise noted, content on <span href="http://blog.core.ac.uk" property="cc:attributionName" rel="cc:attributionURL">this site</span> is licensed under a <a rel="license" href="//creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" class="subfoot"> Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license </a>. </small> </p> </div> </div> <a href="https://wordpress.org/">Proudly powered by WordPress</a> </div> </footer> </div> <script type='text/javascript'> /* <![CDATA[ */ r3f5x9JS=escape(document['referrer']); hf4N='b4ef26e8e995023596143e5b0f9e7a52'; hf4V='04dd9b696411828059b3f665e7ea6206'; jQuery(document).ready(function($){var e="#commentform, .comment-respond form, .comment-form, #lostpasswordform, #registerform, #loginform, #login_form, #wpss_contact_form";$(e).submit(function(){$("<input>").attr("type","hidden").attr("name","r3f5x9JS").attr("value",r3f5x9JS).appendTo(e);return true;});var h="form[method='post']";$(h).submit(function(){$("<input>").attr("type","hidden").attr("name",hf4N).attr("value",hf4V).appendTo(h);return true;});}); /* ]]> */ </script> <script async src="https://blog.core.ac.uk/wp-content/cache/minify/95d78.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" id="twentyfifteen-script-js-extra"> /* <![CDATA[ */ var screenReaderText = {"expand":"<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">expand child menu<\/span>","collapse":"<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">collapse child menu<\/span>"}; /* ]]> */ </script> <script async src="https://blog.core.ac.uk/wp-content/cache/minify/41ea3.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://c0.wp.com/c/6.7.1/wp-includes/js/wp-embed.min.js" id="wp-embed-js" defer="defer" data-wp-strategy="defer"></script> <script src='https://stats.wp.com/e-202447.js' defer></script> <script> _stq = window._stq || []; _stq.push([ 'view', {v:'ext',blog:'160721468',post:'0',tz:'0',srv:'blog.core.ac.uk',j:'1:11.9.3'} ]); _stq.push([ 'clickTrackerInit', '160721468', '0' ]); </script> <script>window.w3tc_lazyload=1,window.lazyLoadOptions={elements_selector:".lazy",callback_loaded:function(t){var e;try{e=new CustomEvent("w3tc_lazyload_loaded",{detail:{e:t}})}catch(a){(e=document.createEvent("CustomEvent")).initCustomEvent("w3tc_lazyload_loaded",!1,!1,{e:t})}window.dispatchEvent(e)}}</script><script async src="https://blog.core.ac.uk/wp-content/cache/minify/1615d.js"></script> </body> </html>
