‘Credit where (data) credit’s due’ - data publishing at STFC’s CEDA Archive service
STFC’s Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) has a record of curating and aiding use of environmental data stretching back to before 1995. Over that time there has been a continued evolution of how data are handled with respect to publications. Ensuring that researchers can gain due credit for their efforts and data output is an important aspect of services such as CEDA’s, working with publishers to ensure the evidence base remains intact and traceable. At the end of the day, it’s only FAIR* to ensure credit is given where (data) credit is due! (*FAIR: Finable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable).

Cataloguing and Connecting Software, Projects, Test Cases and More
The CCP-WSI catalogue demonstrates how cataloguing and connecting research outputs in a specific field can provide a rich resource for its community. This talk presents a protype of the CCP-WSI Catalogue and explores what we hope to achieve with it as well as how it can be applicable to other domains.

Cooperation and Collaboration for Preservation in Open Science
Making (and keeping) research data accessible is essential for Open Science, but ensuring the FAIR-ness and preservation of data over time requires an ongoing collaborative effort by researchers, repositories, funders and other stakeholders in the Open Science community. In this talk, we’ll highlight a few key findings from the Digital Preservation Coalition’s ‘FAIR Forever?’ study on long term data preservation, to share some of the resources and practical ways researchers and staff can make their data more preservation-ready. *Disclaimer* The information contained in the Open Science Café webinar posted here represents the personal views and opinions of any speakers and presenters, and not necessarily those of STFC/UKRI.

Data availability statements: the good, the bad and the ugly
Journals are increasingly asking authors to include a “data availability” or “data access” statement as a section of their article. But what are these statements used for, and by whom? Is the statement “Data is available on reasonable request” sufficient? This talk will explore the good, the bad and the downright terrible of data statements, and how authors and publishers can improve their approach.

Diamond Light Source: A move towards FAIR data
Steve will discusses how Diamond is in the process of reviewing and updating its relationship with the research data that it produces. Data will soon be made open by default, following an embargo period. However, this poses a selection of challenges; including how to make Diamond's output more useful for human and machine agents. Steve outline Diamond's aspirations for achieving this, guided by FAIR data principles.

Evolving the research system: Improving the visibility & value of all research contributions
We are at a pivotal point in how research is shaped and delivered. The demand for more open and collaborative ways of working encourages moves towards a more holistic research evaluation system and initiatives to create a more inclusive research culture. But how can we ensure that the aspirations of open science and more balanced research assessment are realised in practice? These are system wide issues that require a system wide approach, something which poses a number of challenges. But there are practical steps that can help, in its evolving shapes and sizes, to be more discoverable, useable and allow the contributions of all types of researchers to be recognised. This webinar will explain how the Contributor Role Taxonomy (CRediT) can play a part in shining a light on non-traditional research roles and help expand our horizons in how we understand and conceive of research of now and the future.

ExPaNDS: Bringing FAIR photon and neutron data to the European Open Science Cloud
ExPaNDS is the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) Photon and Neutron Data Service. This talk looks at how the ExPaNDS project is enabling the production of FAIR and open data at national photon and neutron facilities across Europe, including here in the UK at ISIS and Diamond. We explore some of the ongoing work of the project, consider how all of this relates to the EOSC, and reflect on what this means for users and facilities as we move increasingly into a world where data resulting from publicly-funded research is seen as a valuable resource to be shared and reused. *Disclaimer* The information contained in the Open Science Café webinar posted here represents the personal views and opinions of any speakers and presenters, and not necessarily those of STFC/UKRI.

Free and Open Source Software in a Research Context
There are strong arguments for the use and reuse of free and open source software (FOSS) in a research context. It underpins reproducibility and helps demonstrate public benefit from public investment. However there are complexities: there are many FOSS licences out there, and there is a perceived tension between FOSS and commercialisation. How can we navigate these deep waters? This talk will provide some answers.

Will AI win the next Chemistry Nobel Prize?
Expert systems, knowledge bases, statistical analysis have long contributed to the advances in Chemistry. The application of Artificial Intelligence(AI) in the form of machine learning (ML) has seen a huge expansion of late. These data driven approaches potentially change the way we will approach research and teaching in Chemistry. However, this also imposes significant demands on the generation of data and infrastructure needed to respond in order to ensure that the quantities of quality information can be generated in a more automated manner and recorded in ways that enable curation, dissemination and sharing in machine readable ways. But will these AI systems lead to an increase in the type of scientific discovery resulting in AI winning a Nobel Prize?
