Funders invest $1.9 trillion a year in research. Improved tools for assessing outputs are needed to help evaluate outcomes and to better target future funding decisions.
The emergence of PIDs in the research workflow make it possible to view granular, transparent, open, verifiable attribution - all consolidated into a convenient “Open Ledger”. A recognition counter (“COG”) is combined with recognition taxonomies (such as CRediT) to signal contribution. Visualization tools and heuristics help interpret the Open Ledger data in the context of specific use-cases, and to filter-out gaming behaviors.
The presentation will discuss the operational and technical challenges of integrating PIDs and show how they are leveraged to create new value on a live platform. The role of individual recognition will be discussed and contrasted with institutional (“curated”) recognition, including the potential to encourage Open Research behaviors and outputs.
How would you run the session to support the spirit of PIDapalooza as a laid-back, welcoming, energetic and exciting meeting, and ensure at least 10 minutes of your session are used to interact with the audience?
The presentation will start with a hands-on audience participation where attendees will be invited to undertake a live recognition of their colleagues related to PIDapalooza 2020.
