A free webinar on the development of a Research Data Framework by Dr. Robert J. Hanisch (NIST)

This webinar, co-organised by STM, CHORUS and the Center for Open Science, is part of a series organized in the context of <a href="https://stm-researchdata.org" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">STM’s Research Data Year </a>presenting speakers from a variety of stakeholder groups sharing the same goal: making research data more Open and FAIR.

Hanisch will present NIST&#x27;s initiative to create a Research Data Framework in the US with the aim of improving research integrity, cost and efficiency, risk management, and amplifying scientific discovery and innovation. The initiative is based on the demonstrated success of the “Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity” which NIST initially issued in February 2014.Dr. Hanisch’s presentation will be followed by a panel discussion on the merits of this effort in the context of making research data more Open and FAIR, consisting of:Shelley Stall, Senior Director, Data Leadership, AGUTerry Law, Deputy of User Services, Environmental Molecular Sciences LaboratoryJonathan Petters, Data Management Consultant and Curation Services Coordinator, Virginia TechAudience: Universities, libraries, policy makers, funders, researchers and publishers that are working on or are interested in promoting Open and FAIR data.https://zoom.us/j/92938172359?pwd=Ym00UVM4V1J3L1lOeWZrODVZejIzQT09 Time: September 17th, 202011am - 12pm ESTA link to the event will be provided one hour before the webinar.Audience: Universities, libraries, policy makers, funders, researchers and publishers that are working on or are interested in promoting Open and FAIR data.	 	 	 										About the speakerDr. Robert J. Hanisch is the Director of the Office of Data and Informatics, Material Measurement Laboratory, at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Gaithersburg, Maryland. In this role he is responsible for improving data management and analysis practices and helping to assure compliance with national directives on open data access. Prior to coming to NIST in 2014, Dr. Hanisch was a Senior Scientist at the Space Telescope Science Institute, Baltimore, Maryland, and was the Director of the US Virtual Astronomical Observatory, a program funded by NSF and NASA. In the past twenty years Dr. Hanisch has led many efforts in the astronomy community in the area of information systems and services, focusing particularly on efforts to improve the accessibility and interoperability of data archives and catalogs. He was the first chair of the International Virtual Observatory Alliance Executive Committee (2002-2003). From 2000 to 2002 he served as Chief Information Officer at STScI, overseeing all computing, networking, and information services for the Institute. Prior to that he had oversight responsibility for the Hubble Space Telescope Data Archive and led the effort to establish the Multimission Archive at Space Telescope—MAST—as the optical/UV archive center for NASA astrophysics missions. He has served as chair of the Program Organizing Committee for the Astronomical Data Analysis Software and Systems con- ferences, chair of the Space Science Data Systems Technical Working Group, chair of the Astrophysics Data Centers Coordinating Committee, chair of the Publications Board of the American Astronomical Society, chair of the AAS Working Group on Astronomical Software, and co-chair of the US Decadal Survey Study Group on Computation, Simulation, and Data Handling. He completed his Ph.D. in Astronomy in 1981 at the University of Maryland, College Park. 				About STMAt <a href="https://www.stm-assoc.org" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">STM</a> we support our members in their mission to advance research worldwide. Our over 140 members based in over 20 countries around the world collectively publish 66% of all journal articles and tens of thousands of monographs and reference works. As academic and professional publishers, learned societies, university presses, start-ups and established players we work together to serve society by developing standards and technology to ensure research is of high quality, trustworthy and easy to access. We promote the contribution that publishers make to innovation, openness and the sharing of knowledge and embrace change to support the growth and sustainability of the research ecosystem. As a common good, we provide data and analysis for all involved in the global activity of research.			About CHORUS CHORUS (<a href="https://www.chorusaccess.org" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">www.chorusaccess.org</a>) advances sustainable, cost-effective open access to articles and datasets reporting on funded research in ways that benefit all in the scholarly communications community. A not-for-profit membership organization, CHORUS leverages existing infrastructure, promotes collaboration, sparks innovation, and broadens the dialogue among publishers, funders, service providers, researchers, and other stakeholders. About the Center for Open Science The mission of the Center for Open Science (<a href="https://cos.io" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">COS</a>) is to increase openness, integrity, and reproducibility of research. We envision a future scholarly community in which the process, content, and outcomes of research are openly accessible by default. All scholarly content is preserved and connected and transparency is an aspirational good for scholarly services. All stakeholders are included and respected in the research lifecycle and share pursuit of truth as the primary incentive and motivation for scholarship. Achieving the mission requires culture change in the incentives that drive researchers’ behavior, the infrastructure that supports research, and the business models that dominate scholarly communication. This Strategic Plan is the result of collective effort by the COS team, board, and community stakeholders.
