SUMMARY:Skills4EOSC Minimum Viable Skills Profiles: Implementation using FAIR Signposting
DESCRIPTION:The “Minimum Viable Skills Profiles: Implementation using FAIR Signposting”  will take place on 2nd July 2024 from 15:00-16:00 CEST. Registration for the workshop is free but mandatory. \nThe Catalogue of Minimum Viable Skillset (MVS) Profiles describes key skills and competences for roles that enable researchers\, professionals\, and stakeholders to practice Open Science (OS) with the support of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC). Each MVS Profile relates the essential skills to the Open Science (OS) practices\, activities\, and outcomes that may typically be expected of the role concerned. \nOne of the ways to ensure increased FAIRness of the MVS Catalogue has been to follow the recommendations on implementing FAIR Signposting\, a lightweight yet powerful approach to increase the FAIRness of scholarly objects. The main idea of the approach is to optimise the MVS Catalogue landing page for use by machine agents that navigate the scholarly web and describe the metadata related to the profiles in a standards-based way. In this way machines learn about the persistent identifier of the MVS Catalogue\, where and what its content is\, where metadata that describes it is\, etc. \nThis webinar aims to provide an overview of the Catalogue of MVS profiles developed within Skills4EOSC\, and how the project implemented the FAIR Signposting approach developed by FAIR IMPACT so that they can be more easily read and understood by automated agents. The workshop is a great venue to discuss and think about how one can take a similar approach to take advantage of the MVS profiles and/or describe and make available other types of work and materials. This event is organised in conjunction with the Skills4EOSC project \nDraft agenda: \n\n15:00 – 15:05 Welcome\n15:05 – 15:15 Introduction to the MVS profiles\n15:15 – 15:30 FAIR Signposting\n15:30 – 15:45 Implementation of a FAIR MVS Catalogue\n15:45 – 16:00 Q&A and wrap up

SUMMARY:OECD Global Science Forum - ESFRI  Workshop on assessing public expenditures committed to RIs
DESCRIPTION:Research infrastructures (RIs) play a critical role in the scientific enterprise. They are now an essential component for all scientific domains and not only allow to push the boundaries of existing knowledge and the production of breakthrough research but they also play a major role in structuring the research system through the development of networks\, of user communities and of rich ecosystems that bring together many research and innovation stakeholders. \nThis increasing role of RIs in the science system\, and the increasing complexity of RIs\, has led to a steady increase in their funding requirement: not only have RIs become a necessity in all scientific disciplines\, but the cost of individual RIs can reach billions or even tens of billion euros. While data is readily available on total research funding in each country\, the same cannot be said for the share of funding specific to RIs. \nThis Workshop\, which is co-organised by the OECD (Global Science Forum) and the European Strategy Forum for Research Infrastructures (ESFRI)\, would be investigating what are the demands from relevant stakeholders regarding RI funding data\, existing data-gathering mechanisms for RI funding and their limits\, what funding could reasonably be assessed and how better standardised RI funding information might be generated. \nYou may read more about the issues to be discussed in this Workshop and the provisional agenda on the dedicated Workshop webpage. \nThis workshop will be virtual only (Zoom). Participants need to register using this link. \n\nYou may contact info@str-esfri.eu for any questions.

SUMMARY:Q&A and matchmaking for call for proposals 'Open Science Infrastructure'
DESCRIPTION:About the event \nThis event will offer participants an opportunity to get information about the call for proposals ‘Open Science Infrastructure’ and to find potential collaborators. \nDuring the first part of the event\, information will be provided about the Open Science NL Open Science Infrastructure call\, and participants will have an opportunity to ask clarifying questions. \nIn the interactive second (optional) part of the event\, participants interested in applying for funding in this call and seeking collaborations will have an opportunity to join a matchmaking session. \nAbout the call \nThe aim of this call for proposals is to fund (digital) infrastructures across the whole spectrum of open science. Proposals can be tailored to specific types of infrastructures (e.g. community-led open access scholarly publishing platforms)\, specific types of research outputs (e.g. research software\, publications\, creative content\, replication studies etc.)\, or specific types of open science practices (e.g. citizen science\, preregistration\, open peer review etc.).  \nAdditionally\, applications can be generic or tailored to the needs of a specific discipline of research. Particularly encouraged are proposals which help to reduce the fragmentation of the existing ecosystem of open science infrastructures\, i.e. promoting integration between existing tools and services. \nCall for proposals: Open Science Infrastructure \nWho should attend? \nAnyone interested in the call for proposals.

SUMMARY:FOAM 2024: FAIR principles for Ontologies and Metadata in Knowledge Management
DESCRIPTION:FOAM is a new workshop merging the Workshop on Ontologies for FAIR and FAIR Ontologies (Onto4FAIR)\, the Conceptual Modeling\, Ontologies and Metadata Management for Findable\, Accessible\, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) Data (CMOMM4FAIR) and the FAIR Ontology Harmonization and TRUST Data Interoperability Workshop (FOHTI). \nThe main objectives of this workshop are: \n\nto bring together new methods for enabling FAIR research outputs (data\, software\, workflows\, ontologies\, mappings\, etc.) through ontologies and vocabularies\ndiscuss techniques\, metrics and guidelines to improve the FAIRness of ontologies and vocabularies\nto share experiences\, identify new challenges and opportunities applying FAIR for different communities\n\nFOAM will be an in-person event. \n\n\nTopics of interest\nMaking the resources produced by researchers fully reusable and understandable requires complex efforts. To address these issues\, the Findable\, Accessible\, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) principles have been developed to provide guidance on making resources more reusable and interoperable. These principles have gained increasing attention in a number of different domains and applications. On the one hand\, a key aspect is the ability to describe resources correctly and semantically\, in particular using ontologies. On the other hand\, ontologies themselves have to comply with the FAIR principles. \nThe workshop aims to bring together leaders from academia\, industry and user institutions to discuss the adoption of the FAIR principles and share real-world requirements\, challenges and experiences in their respective domains. In addition\, we aim to explore how the FAIR principles are supported by the use of ontologies that are ideally FAIR themselves\, and to discuss the challenges and perspectives in adopting the FAIR principles. \nThe topics of interest include\, but are not limited to\, the following: \n\nontologies\, schemas and vocabularies for FAIR data and metadata;\ndomain and cross-domain ontologies for FAIR research outputs (data\, software\, mappings\, workflows\, ontologies\, ML models\, etc.);\ntechniques\, methods and tools to increase the FAIRness of vocabularies and ontologies;\nFAIR ontology harmonisation\, mapping\, alignment\, merging and modularisation;\nbest practices on modeling FAIR research outputs;\nsemantic descriptions of FAIR digital objects;\nchallenges in FAIR research output management and modeling;\nnovel applications of the FAIR principles\, FAIRification process and use cases;\nmetrics for FAIRness assessment;\nprovenance in FAIR environments;\nFAIR principles and open science;\nFAIR principles and linked open data;\nApplication of the FAIR principles in scientific communities (life science\, digital humanities\, health\, smart cities\, etc.)\n\n\n\nSubmissions\nSubmissions can be made in the following categories: \n\nFull papers (10 – 12 pages\, including references)\nShort papers (6 – 9 pages\, including references)\nPosters (up to 5 pages\, including references)\n\n  \nSubmissions should be original work and follow the CEUR one-column template (Overleaf template\, CEUR author kit). However\, FOAM 2024 explicitly welcomes alternative and enhanced submission formats\, such as HTML submissions. Authors who are preparing such a submission should contact the workshop organizers in advance to make sure we can accommodate for them in the submission and review process. \nSubmissions should be managed through Easychair. At least one author of each accepted paper is expected to attend the workshop (in person). \nFOAM embraces the adoption of FAIR best practices. If your paper proposes a dataset\, has associated source code or proposes a new ontology or demo\, please make sure these resources conform with the FAIR Best practices from FOIS.
