It’s been awhile since I’ve posted anything, but not for lack of activity in the world of sciencey-informatics. Next week I’ll be at the BioIT World FAIR Data Hackathon in Boston, along with several other members of the Research Informatics team of Collaborative Drug Discovery. Right now we’re tooling up a customised instance of the BioAssay Express (for which the most uptodate standard version can be found here) so that we can deploy several different proposed templates for evaluating whether a published article abides by FAIR principles. The plan is to evaluate as many articles as we can, and produce a scoresheet at the end of the day. I don’t know what the answer will be, and it will be interesting to find out!
