SUMMARY:OPERAS 2026 & SCIROS Conference
DESCRIPTION:Research infrastructures (RIs) are often visualised as a collection of servers\, cables\, and code. However\, at its core\, a research infrastructure is a boundary object: a multifaceted entity that sits at the intersection of different social worlds. It is the common ground where researchers\, librarians\, publishers\, policymakers\, and engineers meet to cooperate despite their varying perspectives and needs. \nIn the OPERAS community\, we understand that an infrastructure for Open Science is not merely a technical utility but a living network and hub of technology\, people\, and know-how. These infrastructures function by linking action across multiple scales – from the specific needs of a local research lab to national strategies\, European frameworks (like EOSC)\, and global scholarly networks. Furthermore\, they integrate the interests of the entire scholarly ecosystem – including researchers\, publishers\, libraries\, media\, and non-profit organisations – to form a scholarly-driven\, inclusive\, and dedicated infrastructure. This conference explores the “connective tissue” of our work. Building on the values of inclusion\, scholarly-driven governance\, and community interaction\, we will discuss how RIs can address the structural and systemic challenges of the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH). \nAs Research Infrastructures grow and mature into formal organisational entities – such as the European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) or other sustainable legal frameworks – they increasingly serve as critical conduits between the diverse communities they unite and the audiences they serve. The specific organisational form an RI adopts creates unique opportunities to facilitate “knowledge travel” across various epistemic cultures. It is through these varied organisational models – linking the grassroots innovation of localised initiatives with the institutional power of international entities – that Research Infrastructures act as essential enablers of science for the benefit of both scholars and society at large. \nThis conference is jointly organised by the OPERAS Research Infrastructure and the SCIROS project\, both of which have been actively exploring the above issues within the Open Science landscape. OPERAS\, an infrastructure for scholarly communication in SSH\, has been growing for almost a decade and is planning to become a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) in the upcoming years. SCIROS\, launched in 2024\, brings a fresh and ambitious perspective\, building a vibrant and diverse network of researchers and research-performing organisations devoted to deepening the understanding of Open Science\, fostering new approaches to its theory\, and strengthening the OS practices and infrastructure ecosystem through collaboration. \nBy bringing together the OPERAS ecosystem and the SCIROS research network\, the conference creates a unique platform for the entire Open Science community to engage in reflection\, dialogue\, and knowledge exchange across theory\, empirical study\, and infrastructure development. In this way\, the conference theme\, “One network\, many possibilities. Strengthening the OPERAS community\,” comes to life\, showing how a connected yet diverse network can expand opportunities for collaboration\, innovation\, and sustainable growth in Open Science.

SUMMARY:SURF Research Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:SURF Research Day brings together research\, IT and innovation in one national conference. Through inspiring talks\, interactive sessions and practical workshops\, you gain new insights and connect with researchers and research supporters. \nThis year’s main theme is ‘Connecting Minds’. Behind the scenes\, we are currently working hard on creating a varied programme with engaging keynotes. As soon as the programme is finalised\, it will be announced

SUMMARY:Global Biodiversity Information Facility Training Course: GBIF Data in Scientific Research and Education.
DESCRIPTION:As part of the ongoing project of the Polish GBIF Node (Global Biodiversity Information Facility)\, under the patronage of the Polish Biodiversity Information Network (KSIB)\, a series of training courses will be organized on the mobilization and use of biodiversity data\, as well as GBIF support for molecular data. The University of Silesia in Katowice invites you to a two-day training on using data from the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) in scientific research and academic teaching. GBIF is an international research infrastructure that provides open access to global biodiversity data. During the training\, participants will learn to search for\, download\, and analyze GBIF data\, and to apply it to research projects and educational activities. The training will cover: \n\nintroduction to the GBIF infrastructure and open biodiversity data\nsearching and filtering data in the GBIF portal\ndownloading and managing data\nbasics of data analysis\nexamples of applications in scientific research (e.g.\, species distribution\nmodelling\, R environment\, metabarcoding analyses)\nuse of GBIF data in education\n\nThe training is intended for scientists\, PhD students\, undergraduate students\, and\nacademic teachers interested in using biodiversity data.
