🎙️ New Inside EOSC episode with Fotis Psomopoulos (EVERSE, CERTH).
Exploring research software, FAIR practices, AI in coding, and why infrastructure is about people and collaboration. EVERSE🎧 https://shows.acast.com/inside-eosc/episodes/fotis-psomopoulos
#ResearchSoftware #OpenScience #EOSC #LUMEN
How can Europe's research institutions collaborate to deal with global issues such as food safety, water scarcity, and biodiversity loss?
Coordinated by @lifewatcheric.bsky.social, European RIs state their commitment to transform scientific cooperation into actionable policy and robust innovation.

I just ran into a COI: not a digital object identifier (DOI), but a content object identifier, specifically: coilink.org/20.500.12592...
It would be nice if coilink.org explained a bit more about COIs, such as how they are different than / related to DOIs, ARKs, etc.
As the latest step in my non-traditional career, I'm very happy to have been promoted to Research Professor in the Siebel School of Computing and Data Science and the School of Information Sciences at @uofilsystem.bsky.social Urbana-Champaign.
Save the date! Our first #EVERSE webinar is coming up on 15th April at 10 AM CEST. We’ll present results from a recent landscaping survey in research software quality and talk about the roles of indicators and dimensions in #RSQ. See here for more details: indico.cern.ch/event/1531998/
Publishers encouraged to adopt DOME machine learning recommendations
💡 The DOME (data, optimisation, model and evaluation) recommendations were developed by the 👨💻 #ELIXIR_MachineLearning Focus Group.
🙌 Publishers of #MachineLearning #LifeScience research are encouraged to adopt the DOME machine learning recommendations!

Amazing to see how our #EVERSE project grew, on the inside and also outside. We had a great time at the general assembly and we’re looking forward to a phase of implementation of our outputs, connecting to communities and strengthen #researchsoftwarequality in Europe and beyond!
Day 1 at the #EVERSE general assembly was dedicated to parallel sessions on indicators, training, tech watch, coffee and more💻
Day 2 at our #EVERSE general assembly wrapped up our parallel sessions and workshops on our #EVERSENetwork, the #RSQKit and other outputs.
We definitely deserve our dinner now with some Spanish tapas and wine🍷¡Chinchin!

Absolutely and fully agree! Regardless on the mechanism that blocked this resource now (I've checked and with a VPN through another country, PubMed is indeed accessible), it merely highlights further that there is a single point of failure on literature that is simply not acceptable any more.
PUBMED is down. This is disaster !!
We do not have the system and organization to replace it. (EuroPMC is great but not a replacement)
It is crystal clear that we cannot depend on critical systems provided by a single provider.
European reaction has to include science and science infrastructures.
If you’re at #deRSE25 at the @kit.edu don’t miss out on our #EVERSE workshop there: a dedicated contentathon on develeoping and integrating research software quality resources! Don’t miss out: events.hifis.net/event/1741/c...
Less than a week to go until our #EVERSE Network launch event on 18th February, 2025, 10.00 CET. Join us for a lively exchange on the future of #researchsoftwarequality: see what we can offer and let us know what you would wish for RSQ. Make sure to register: indico.cern.ch/event/1501988/
Very interesting presentation of the @scienceeurope.org survey on Open Science policies by @bsaenen.bsky.social. Really happy that research software was identified as a key element to be addressed, with clear recommendations - and very well aligned to @eosc-everse.bsky.social goals and objectives.
Today we had the session on the EOSC Opportunity Area Expert Group 7 on Research Software in the context of the EOSC Winter School. A small, but very dedicated group of people, which led to some concrete actions moving forward! @eosc-everse.bsky.social #researchsoftware #SoftwareHeritage
Karel presenting the goals of EOSC Strategic Pillar #1, including the expectation of quality software (a clear connection to EVERSE)
Happy to be a participant in the EOSC Association Winter School (eosc.eu/eosc-focus-p...) in Seville, representing both @eosc-everse.bsky.social as well as the newly established Opportunity Area Expert Group 7 on Research Software.
Looking forward to all the discussions over the next two days!
