Would you like to find out more about PIDs for different types of resources?
🥘 Our regularly updated PID4NFDI Cookbook can help you to navigate the PID landscape. The latest entry provides practical insights into services for registering and searching for PIDs for instruments.

Initiatives like @SafeguardingResearch work hard to rescue #researchData that are (about to be) deleted by the Trump administration, by using a Bittorrent network where many small nodes contribute.

This is a very #solarpunk way of doing science: community-driven, decentralized & resilient #SolarpunkScience.
Some tinker projects:

🎯1. Develop the most low-cost (in €, material resources, and CO2) p2p solution for data rescueing.

Maybe a #RaspberryPi + existing HDD? Reuse existing hardware. Compute costs in absolute and relative way (€ and CO2 per terabyte of data stored & shared). Is a bigger server plugged to a uni network more efficient in relative costs?

🎯2. Run a hackathon, help others to install the bittorrent clients on whatever machine they have.

🎯3 (Bonus): Build a purely solar powered, autonomous seeding node. E.g. the #LowTechMagazine went a long way in optimizing a web server that runs on solar + battery (achieving >95% uptime on a 50W solar setup)
solar.lowtechmagazine.com/2020

Imagine little autonomous, solar powered seeding nodes standing in gardens, tirelessly sharing research data whenever the sun is shining. A project that regenerates our digital commons in a sustainable, community-led way 🌱.

Please share your thoughts - is this a feasible and worthwhile project?

📊 New CNI Spring Meeting Video
University of Texas at Austin is advancing how institutions can surface, assess, and support research outputs beyond traditional publications—like datasets and software.

The presentation highlights an automated, scalable process for identifying and analyzing these outputs across platforms and APIs, providing a fuller picture of research activity at UT.

A look back at the HMC Conference 2025 #HMC_CON2025 in Cologne - More than just a meeting about the metadata world!

The @helmholtz_hmc Conference took place in Cologne from 12 to 14 May. It featured an interesting programme covering all aspects of metadata, interoperability and FAIRness in research. In addition, the conference offered one thing above all: space for dialogue, networking and inspiration.

In the research life cycle, data stewards are the unsung heroes who ensure datasets are organized, documented, and reusable. Without them, context is lost, metadata vanishes, and continuity breaks down, turning valuable research into an unsolvable puzzle.

Stewardship isn’t just good practice but, is essential for reproducibility, collaboration, and long-term impact.

My new presentation 🎙️ – “Data that does no harm: how to manage research data in wartime”.

👉 dx.doi.org/10.13140/RG.2.2.158

How can we ensure that research data doesn't put people at risk during war? This talk explores the CARE Principles as an ethical framework for protecting vulnerable communities – especially in Ukraine.

How do scientists make sense of complex #ResearchData? 🔬

Scientists in low-temperature #PlasmaPhysics, supported by @nfdi4bioimage are developing a domain-specific #ontology and #terminology service to standardize their (meta)data and establish a common technical language. This not only improves data discoverability but also enables the integration and analysis of heterogeneous datasets.
