Scientific findings in a digital world: What is the genuine article?
Online forum to discuss the evolving methods of publication and review of scientific findings
The Nature Network is hosting an online forum to discuss Scientific Findings in a Digital World. Led by John Milbank, this forum will cover a variety of issues, including:
- Looking Good on Paper
- Video Killed the Methods Section
- Share and Share Alike
- On Common Ground
By necessity, these discussions of data publishing issues will also address marine metadata issues; British attempts to generate unique identifiers for data sets are also likely to be addressed.
In the first post, the issue of data publication/sharing is raised, and further discussed in subsequent posts.
"So I’d like to kick this off by going straight to what I at least perceive to be the root: Why should a data producer want to (a) make the effort to share and (b) do more than the bare minimum."
