In their latest Research Policy article, Know Center researchers Thomas Klebel and Tony Ross-Hellauer, together with Federico Bianchi and Flaminio Squazzoni (University of Milan), use 𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 to simulate how different research-funding schemes influence long-term data-sharing behaviour. 💡 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁: While competitive, large-grant schemes can trigger faster short-term data sharing, they may 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘂𝗽𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 in the long run, as uncertainty and resource inequality discourage continuous open-data practices. More distributive funding, by contrast, may foster 𝘀𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 of data sharing over time. The findings highlight a delicate balance: reforming research incentives toward 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 requires not only mandates but also 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗰 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁, 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝗳𝗿𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 to make openness sustainable. 📖 Read the full open-access article in Research Policy (Elsevier): https://lnkd.in/dAU6GsaR #OpenScience #DataSharing #ResearchPolicy #KnowCenter #TrustworthyAI #SciencePolicy #AgentBasedModeling #HorizonEurope #TIER2 #AIDrivesUs

A while ago, our Penguin Research Group faced a familiar struggle. Our data were everywhere. Different formats, different repositories, different penguins “systems”. What should have been a simple question, “What patterns are we seeing in penguin populations?” turned into hours of digging, cleaning, and reformatting. The science slowed down. The insights came later. The frustration was real. And the truth is, this isn’t just a penguin problem. It’s what thousands of researchers deal with every day. Valuable data gets stuck in silos, and FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) remain more of an aspiration than a reality. That’s why at the EOSC Association Symposium 2025, during the Lightning Talks & Demos on 4 November, I’ll be presenting: 💡 FAIR Wizard: Lowering Barriers to FAIR Adoption through EOSC-Connected Integrations We’ll show how FAIR Wizard turns FAIR from a checklist into a living, practical part of everyday research. It gives real-time feedback as researchers complete DMPs, SMPs, or ethical reviews, helping them see instantly how FAIR their data are and what to improve. Because when data becomes FAIR by design, something powerful happens: 🔹 Collaboration becomes easier. 🔹 Research becomes faster. 🔹 Science becomes more open, connected, and impactful. If you’ll be at the Symposium, come find me after the session or during coffee breaks. Let’s talk about your data challenges and explore how we can make FAIR work for you, not just around you. I’d love to hear your story and maybe even help make your next data project a little less fragmented. #EOSC #FAIRData #OpenScience #ResearchDataManagement #FAIRWizard

We’re excited to share that our new FAIR data infrastructure and Matryoshka file format for integral chemical reaction and analysis capture has just been published in Digital Discovery #RSCDigital#RSCDigital This work represents a major step toward how data are now generated and managed at the Swiss Cat+ West Hub at EPFL Chemistry, and how they’re made openly available to the scientific community. A huge thank you to Alice Gauthier, Jean-Charles COUSTY, the Swiss Data Science Center, Oksana Riba Grognuz, Laure Vancauwenberghe, and all our collaborators for their incredible teamwork and commitment to advancing Open Research Data (ORD). 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eac7uWUD #RSCDigital #OpenScience #FAIRdata #digitalchemistry #labautomation #selfdrivinglab #SDL

As we continue celebrating Open Access Week 2025 (Oct. 20–26), we’re shining a light on how the Library helps make research data open, citable and accessible to all. Through our Research Data Digital Collections, UC San Diego researchers can deposit, preserve and share their datasets. This ensures their work remains transparent, reproducible and globally impactful. Many of these datasets are linked directly to peer-reviewed publications, expanding access to the data behind the discoveries. The Library’s Research Data Curation services provides tools to help you: - Create Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) for your research outputs - Develop compliant Data Management Plans (DMPs) - Share and preserve data and code - Build open and reproducible research skills 📖 Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/e7F5rgSm #OAweek

'Data alone doesn’t build collaboration; context and connection bring it to life.' We are excited to introduce our new insight series, 'Thriving in Today’s Complex Research Grantmaking Landscape', highlighting how the dynamic relationship between technology, data, and people builds a stronger, more connected research ecosystem. In the first article of the series, reSolved's Amie Vuong dives into one of the most important challenges facing research funders and administrators today - moving beyond siloed data to build meaningful connections that drive collaboration and discovery. By providing the right context and connections, information becomes more than just numbers in a system, it becomes a catalyst for: 🖇️ Linking researchers to the right opportunities ✅ Matching reviewers with precision 💡 Aligning researchers and institutions At reSolved, we know that data can fuel connection and collaboration, serving to accelerate and maximize impact. By using technology to empower research leaders, insight can be transformed into action, enabling research communities to thrive.

🌍 Measuring Innovation Ecosystems Efficient innovation ecosystems are key to addressing structural change through research and technology. 📊 Our new #PolicyPaper introduces a four-quadrant model mapping organizations by Excellence in #Science and Excellence in Tech Transfer. It distinguishes fundamental research, applied research, and industrial testing labs—tested successfully in #Portugal’s R&D system through both quantitative and qualitative data. 💡 A data-driven approach to strengthen research impact and innovation transfer. 📄 Read more in the current Policy Paper! 👉 https://lnkd.in/eShfBgik (Open Access) #Innovation #TechTransfer #ResearchImpact #JustTransition #JTC_Halle Ralf Wehrspohn Isabel Salavisa Bernardete Ribeiro Vito Di Noto EHRENFRIED ZSCHECH

At the second #CoRDI Conference, held in August this year at RWTH Aachen University, the Base4NFDI - Basic Services for the NFDI international panel brought inspiring voices from ELIXIR-UK, RDA, Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC), and GÉANT to share how we can make research infrastructures strong, sustainable, and people-driven. Here’s what stood out: Nurture your community – Sustainability starts with trust, collaboration, and shared purpose. Invest in people – Skilled, motivated teams are the real engines of lasting change. Focus on impact – Build services that truly make a difference and meet real needs. Keep your ideals—and your business sense – Combine open science values with clear, measurable impact. As Base4NFDI grows, so does our collective opportunity: to shape infrastructures that not only serve today’s researchers but empower tomorrow’s discoveries.

How do we connect the dots between grants and the research they support? The data tells us who's leading the way—and why open funding metadata matters for transparency in science. https://lnkd.in/eaZ3Q9kh
