  1. BioSharing – connecting data policies, standards & databases in the life sciencesBioSharing WG Peter McQuilton, PhD Susanna-Assunta Sansone, Rebecca Lawrence and Simon Hodson rd-alliance.org

  2. What challenges did the WG face? What were the aims? • To develop guidelines for linking information on databases, content standardsand journal and funder data policiesin the life sciences Data policies by funders, journals and other organizations (100s) Database, tools and services (>1000) Formats Terminologies Guidelines Data/metadata standards (650+) rd-alliance.org

  3. What challenges did the WG face? What were the aims? • To develop a curated registry (running since 2011), to access and cross-search this information, such that a variety of stakeholders can make decisions on which standards and databases to use or endorse https://www.biosharing.org rd-alliance.org

  4. What is BioSharing? A web-based, curated and searchable portal thatmonitors the development and evolutionof standards, their usein databases and the adoption of both in datapolicies, to inform and educate the user community. rd-alliance.org

  5. Describe the output – biosharing.org rd-alliance.org

  6. What are the ramifications of not having the problem resolved? • Standards are reinvented • Databases use the wrong standards • Data policies fail to endorse appropriate resources • Increasingly, data is lost as it is not • Findable • Accessible • Interoperable • Reusable (The FAIR principles) rd-alliance.org

  7. Who is affected by this WG? • Data creators and (re)users in the life, biomedical and environmental sciences • People who recommend or endorse the use of data standards and databases in the life, biomedical and environmental sciences rd-alliance.org

  8. Describe the Working Group structure (how many members, diversity of experience, geographies, etc.) • >50 members from around the world • Standard/database developers • Funders • Journal data editors • Researchers • Data managers/librarians rd-alliance.org

  9. RDA/Force11 BioSharing WG

  10. Adoption & Implementation Institutional RDM services, incl.: Societies and organisations, incl.: Cross-links and data exchange, incl.: Projects/programmes, incl.: BioTools Standard developing groups, incl.: Journals/publishers/Funders, incl.: rd-alliance.org

  11. Feedback and comments • Output report available now • Help us define and refine our guidelines for linking data policies, databases and data standards in the life, biomedical and environmental sciences • Contacts: rda-biosharing-wg@rda-groups.org biosharingwg@force11.org rd-alliance.org
