Strategy & Policy-Facing Track, Sep 2023

First Wednesday of every month
12pm ET/ 11am CT/ 10am MT/ 9am PT/ 7am HT

Topic Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs)

Dr. Anita Bandrowski will lead a discussion of RRIDs: Persistent Unique identifiers mark the things that are used in studies, key biological resources, and other important tools such as software tools, databases, core facilities, and now also instruments. These are used by various journals (primarily in biomedicine) to make searching for these things easier. The listing and use of the RRIDs has also allowed us to create AI tools that find papers where authors do not necessarily refer to the tool using the RRID, making it easier overall to find key resources.
