Webinars
Blueprint Series: Identifiers (Webinar)
Have you wished for an easier way to showcase your repository’s capabilities? Wondered how repositories can better leverage submitted data, cross-reference datasets and metadata terms or more precisely cite organizations, grants, and contributors? This session addresses these challenges by exploring the role of persistent identifiers (PIDs).
Blueprint Series: Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) (Webinar)
How do we connect biomedical data systems to increase usage while providing adequate context? How is the emergent AI landscape placing new emphasis and demands on data services? How can API governance approaches reduce the burden on system administrators and developers? Explore how the NIAID Blueprint’s Application Programming Interface (API) recommendations address these questions.
The webinar provides a high-level introduction to web API architecture focusing on guidance from the NIAID Blueprint. The presentation introduces the role of URL patterns, versioning approaches, and more to support the development of long-term access to research metadata and data. API management and technical specifications are presented, enabling you to create discoverable, self-documenting machine interfaces. Finally, the webinar explores the integration of APIs within the AI landscape.
Impact - Assessing how much and how your data is used (Webinar)
How do identifiers improve the findability of research assets? What role do citations play in measuring the impact of research outputs? How do we implement good citation recommendations that are consistent with domain-specific practices? Explore how the NIAID Blueprint recommendations address these questions.
The webinar will introduce the crucial role that identifiers play in measuring the impact of all sorts of research assets. We will also explore strategies for creating citation recommendations that are easy for data users to find and follow. Participants will gain exposure to the various ways identifiers are indexed, and to metrics, tools and techniques for finding papers that reference relevant datasets and data repositories.
Blueprint Core Metadata Schema (Webinar)
An introduction to the Blueprint Minimal Metadata Schema will explore how its core descriptive attributes can facilitate data findability, reuse and interoperability. By the end of each webinar, attendees will be able to draw on specific examples to demonstrate how interoperability within repository systems can be improved.
Improving Impact through FAIR Implementation Profiles (Webinar)
Designed as a standalone session as well as part one of three in a hands-on workshop series (further details on parts 2 & 3 are forthcoming). As a result of this webinar, attendees will learn how to use FAIR Implementation Profiles (FIPs) to describe, track, and align their repositories with other community resources for increased interoperability of data.
