@skanman Thanks !!

Surprise !!! 🤪 https://www.timeshighereducation.com/news/elsevier-and-springer-nature-sit-out-plan-s-cost-comparison-tool

@skanman This is a different matter, but it would obviously be very interesting. There is currently a search engine that does a bit of that, called Scholar Google, but it's not as sharp as what you propose.

@skanman Apart from that, to answer your question, what the research community needs is simply that the data supporting the research results published in open access are appended the publications online. They must be universally understandable and reusable and they should be ideally on the same open platform. This is technically simple and it has been well developed for a long time, but is not practiced enough at all by researchers. What is missing is a will, not so much a technique.

@skanman Thanks for your response ! A technical question first : how do you manage to post long messages >500 signs ?

@skanman Great ! I agree of course.
However I was not talking about data in general, but about publicly funded research data, which should be commons.

Le partage des données, un défi culturellement contre-intuitif.

Scientific journals may counter the misuse, misreporting, and misinterpretation of statistics by providing guidance to authors.

@rickypo
Of course. No surprise…

DORA, the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment, is announcing its new policy on engagement and outreach for organizational signatories, aiming to give a more specific answer to the question ‘How should DORA be enforced?’ 👍🏻 https://sfdora.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Engagement-and-outreach-policy-for-DORA-organizational-signers_Approved-2022.pdf | #OpenScience #ResearchAssessment @StephenCurry

@skanman During the 80 previous rears, data has been the hidden gold.

@skanman 🤣 I wish it were true!
But unfortunately, it is not. Publishing one’’s raw data has only exceptionally been a reality so far…

Data is the new gold. Les données permettent de valider les résultats de la recherche et d’objectiver la prise de décision stratégique en entreprise. La gestion des données est ainsi devenue un enjeu majeur.
Comment appliquer les principes FAIR à l’université, en entreprise, dans un institut de recherche ?
