SUMMARY:Edinburgh Open Research Conference 2026
DESCRIPTION:Good Research is Open Research – so what’s stopping us from making research more open? Join the conversation at Edinburgh Open Research Conference 2026 \nFull Programme – https://library.ed.ac.uk/research-support/eorc2026/programme \nThis one day conference provides an opportunity for all individuals interested in making research more open and accessible to come together to discuss their challenges\, success stories\, and next steps. \nThe ambitious “Recommendation on Open Science” produced by UNESCO recognises the broad scope and impact of Open Research – not just on knowledge production\, but also on the world at large. Built around the values of Quality and Integrity\, Collective Benefit\, Equity and Fairness\, and Diversity and Inclusion\, the model provides a foundation for a strategic and principled path forward. Over the past year we have begun revamping our action plan and internal model at the University of Edinburgh to reflect this ambitious and expansive scope. \nOur new action plan is more diverse and expansive than ever before\, and our strategies will build upon this new perspective\, taking into account our local context. To celebrate this positive step forward\, this year’s conference will therefore delve into the various values\, principles\, and actions highlighted by UNESCO’s model. \nJoin the conversation in person in 50 George Square\, University of Edinburgh or Online. Our sessions will explore the general principles of Open Research as described in our new action plan\, but also zoom in on specific areas\, as identified within UNESCO’s model. \nTickets can be booked on the Eventbrite pages: \nFor IN-PERSON attendance: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/edinburgh-open-research-conference-2026-in-person-tickets-1985574269089 \nTo join ONLINE: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/edinburgh-open-research-conference-2026-online-tickets-1986986380753

SUMMARY:Tools for Data FAIRification - overcoming barriers in data discoverability and reuse
DESCRIPTION:It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by barriers to making data FAIR\, but when you realise that others have had the same problems AND have solutions\, life feels much better! \nHolly Ranger and the N8 CIR group have organised an online seminar titled “Tools for Data FAIRification – overcoming barriers in data discoverability and reuse” will take place on Tuesday\, 23 June from 13:00–15:00 (BST) with a focus on practical tools and approaches to improve how research data is managed\, shared\, and reused in line with FAIR principles (Findable\, Accessible\, Interoperable\, Reusable). Four separate speakers will share their stories and present the solutions they have found to improve their practices. \nThe programme includes four talks: \n\nStreamlining Data Management Planning – Kryštof Komanec discusses tools like the Data Stewardship Wizard to improve research data management practices.\nMaximising Data Reusability – Matthew Nichols explores methods and tools that enhance the discoverability and usability of environmental datasets.\nAutomated ReadMe Generation – Ali Abdurhman Kelil and Dag-Even Martinsen Torsøe present URGE\, a tool to help efficiently generate dataset documentation.\nElectronic Notebooks – Zuzanna Zagrodzka highlights how digital notebooks support transparency\, reproducibility\, and FAIR research practices.\n\nOverall\, the seminar showcases practical solutions and expert insights aimed at improving data management workflows and enabling better data sharing and reuse.
