The Persistent Identifiers (PIDs) for Instruments Community Dialogue, hosted by DataCite and Metadata Game Changers, brought together a diverse group of experts to explore how PIDs can transform the identification of scientific instruments and the data they collect.
DataCite welcomed over 370 participants from almost 300 institutions across 59 countries to our Annual Community Meeting on 25 September 2024. The DataCite Community Meeting was held across 10 sessions in three blocks and spanning all time zones, with some sessions repeated to give a regional focus.
Collaborative research projects often involve teams of researchers from different institutes, and each research stage—from the planning, the piloting, the data collection, analysis, writing, and revision—produces outputs that embody rich details of the research work that are essential for reproducibility and reuse.
As we approach the 2025 election, an exciting chapter for our community, the Election Committee is steering a process that will shape the future of DataCite’s leadership.
As a global community, DataCite encourages involvement from people that share our vision: to ensure that research outputs and resources are openly available and connected so that their reuse can advance knowledge across and between disciplines, now and in the future.
Through the 2021 partnership between DataCite and IGSN e.V. , DataCite services can be used to register International Generic Sample Numbers (IGSN IDs) for material samples. Over the coming months, the blog series ‘IGSN ID Implementation Exemplars’ will showcase sample management workflows developed by the community that incorporate IGSN ID registration.
The DataCite Metadata Working Group has a new Request for Comments (RFC) with several proposed changes to the DataCite Metadata Schema, and we want to hear your feedback.
The DataCite Global Access Fund (GAF) is a strategic initiative designed to enhance equitable access to research infrastructure by supporting organizations in regions and communities currently underrepresented in the global open science infrastructure landscape. In this blog post series, we will explore the projects of the GAF awardees , sharing insights into the outcomes and future aspirations.
A key challenge for researchers is keeping track of project activities across the research lifecycle. Unlike a grant, which a researcher receives, a project is something that a researcher does. Project information is dynamic; what is planned is not necessarily what is delivered, while project contributors and organizations may change over time.
DataCite use cases around the world: Welcome to our blog series shining a spotlight on how research institutions integrate DataCite infrastructure into their systems and workflows. Join us as we explore real-world examples, best practices, and the impact of the DataCite community.
