Public health research is a multidisciplinary and multifaceted approach toward improving the health of the population. In recent years, there has been a significant investment in studying and collecting public health data; however, given the complexity of public health, it is not a trivial task to find related datasets to a given public health research…

The proposed setting–Development Science Framework (DSF), views each SDG as a source of highly correlated Big Data attributes and seeks to explore their interactions in a predictive, spatio-temporal context. For example, the relationships among SDGs 13, 14 & 15 on human livelihood, reflected by SDGs 1 through 7, are particularly intriguing and modelling their dynamics can provide answers to…

IG not taken forward

N.B. As of 17 May 2022 this WG will not be moving forward with endorsement of the Case Statement and has withdrawn.

Building on the work of the Data Rescue IG, the Data Conservation IG will both expand scope to all types of data (both digital and analog), and focus on decision-making topics including: How are data sets prioritized for rescue or conservation? How are risk factors defined, assessed, and/or categorized? How is funding prioritized and/or secured?…

It is the objective of this group to i) discuss the nature of information ii) characterize the variant concepts in different fields and iii) evaluate to conequences for research data management. In his classical paper More is different, P.W. Anderson (1972) discusses the hierarchical levels of nature. Each level is made of and obeys the…

FAIR research software skills and training curriculums need to be identified and incorporated into broader efforts to facilitate increased support and recognition for the qualified personnel needed to achieve open science. International efforts such as Horizon Europe’s Supporting an EOSC-ready digitally skilled workforce aim to develop new support material, curricula and learning pathways for researchers,…

The RDA Scholarly Publishing community is interested in developing guidelines for Availability Statements for digital objects, specifically data. In short, Availability Statements in scholarly publications could be more structured and FAIR. Through this work we will review the status of current guidance, what authors are providing, and the gap with desired outcomes. The desired outcome…

Digital twins, customized simulation models pioneered in industry, are beginning to gain ground in medicine and healthcare, with some major successes in cardiovascular diagnostics and insulin pump control. Personalized computational models are also assisting in applications ranging from drug development to patient-tailored treatment optimization. Advanced medical digital twins will be essential to making personalized medicine…
