STM Innovations Seminar
Driven by data – moving open science forward
Sharing research data is an important enabler for Open Science. Widely endorsed--and even mandated-- by funding bodies and other policy-makers, many disciplines are establishing common conventions on how to make this vision a reality. Through necessity and to aid in reproducibility, publishers are also supporting these endeavours and helping authors make their research data available alongside and linked to their publications. Research Data are thus considered the new gold, for science, research, and society. Today’s Innovation Seminar will offer an exciting tour through and beyond the world of Research Data and the Reproducibility of Research.

The Secret Life of Data: Responsible Research and Reproducibility, Transparency and Trust Moderated by:Heather Ruland Staines, KnowledgeFutures.org Opening keynote: Dr. Leslie McIntosh Founder & CEO, Ripeta, RDA-US Responsible research means sharing data and allowing reproducibility checks. The keynote of today will highlight these principles for Trust and Integrity of Research with ample everyday cases and examples, to make the case for more and better sharing of Research Data. Also, perhaps even foremost, in biomedical research. Based on thousands of observations across research publications, Leslie will showcase the current trends in making scientific publishing more transparent from policy to practice. This will lead into thoughts on better understanding the signals of trust in science. Dr. McIntosh is the inaugural founder and CEO of Ripeta, LLC, a company formed to improve scientific research reproducibility. She also wears the hat of Executive Director for the Research Data Alliance – US (RDA-US), a global organization developing recommendations for data sharing and interoperability. |

Round table discussion, moderated by Eefke Smit, Director of Standards and Technology, STM Association STM 2020 Research Data Year: Share – Link - Cite Publishers can play a pivotal role in enabling research data to be made available, linked to publications, and cited - to give researchers recognition for sharing their data. A round table of experienced publishers in this area will discuss effective ways to do this, and some of the lessons learned, to share good practice with other publishers. Grace Baynes, VP, Research Data and New Product Development, Springer Nature |

Morning Plenary and Discussion Panel Achieving Reproducibility: Introducing Quality Badges Moderated by Gerry Grenier, Senior Director of Content Management, IEEE As publishers and researchers are placing greater emphasis on the practice of reproducibility as an essential ingredient of the scientific research process, it is critical to make compatible the taxonomies used to define the various levels of reproducibility and to agree on a standardized badging scheme that can be applied in the publishing process. This panel builds on a NISO project that aims to forge agreement and move toward a common vocabulary for quality badging and will address the practical issues that researchers and publishers will face as they implement reproducibility. Neil Chue Hong, Software Sustainability Institute, University of Edinburgh |

Turning data into revenue – monetizing data assets Afternoon keynote, Bettina Goerner, Managing Director Data Products, Springer Nature In a world where data and analytics are exploding, the thirst for data and for the competitive edge it brings, is exploding too. STM publishers own data which is useful to current customers but may be even more useful to different customers for entirely new applications. This session will bring you fascinating examples from other industries about alternative use cases of data and new revenue streams. This talk will support your organization in exploring new data products. It looks - very practically - at what data assets are there and of possible value, which user pain points and customers may they serve, and how to get there, to turn data into revenue in an exploding market. It covers all aspects of product strategy, sales process, pricing, business models and IP management, so you can walk away and apply these insights. |

SeamlessAccess.org: single sign-on is here – to stay Update on the launch of this new service to streamline digital authentication via an industry-wide single sign on, by the leadership of SeamlessAccess.org: Heather Flanagan (Project Director), Chris Shillum (Elsevier), Ralph Youngen (ACS), Now operational in Beta, the SeamlessAccess.org initiative is excited to share how this new infrastructure for secure and privacy protected access to academic resources works. This is a collaboration between STM, NISO, Geant, Internet2 and ORCID who are building a new infrastructure for Federated Identity Management (FIM), based on the RA21 best practice recommendations as published during 2019. This global FIM infrastructure, open for all organisations to implement, will facilitate a massive change in the current access and entitlement management practice of STM publishers, academic and corporate research libraries, and academic resources such as the lab, the cloud and whatever researchers wish to access. |
