Builds stable linkages at the global level … Builds stable linkages at the global level, in particular between journals, funders, implementing data sharing policies, and well-constituted standardization efforts in the biosciences domain, to expedite the communication and the production of an integrated standards-based framework for the capture and sharing of high-throughput genomics and functional genomic bioscience data, in particular. This objective is achieved via the creation of web-based catalogues and a communication forum.
Its offers a focal point for the various stakeholders in data policy by fulfilling two main roles: (i) Providing a one-stop-shop for those seeking data policy documents and related information (including information about the standards and technologies that support them) and (ii) Encouraging the exchange of ideas and policy components amongst funders, and between funders and potential fundees, ultimately to harmonize policy components where feasible.
The Biosharing.org site is designed to provide general information about data sharing in the biological sciences and specifically in the domain of 'omics. It welcomes contributions from all. Through this website, BioSharing aims to centralize and promote information on data policies, data standards and the general process by which they are developed.
Biosharing is a multi-author blog. If you would like to become a contributor, or would like to submit an 'alert' to a workshop or other activity please email "dfield -at- ceh.ac.uk".<br />
CATALOGUES: The web-based BioSharing catalogues aim to centralize bioscience data policies, reporting standards and links to other related portals.
# Providing a “one-stop shop” for those seeking data sharing policy documents and information about the standards and technologies that support them.
# Exposing core information on well-constituted, community-driven standardization efforts and link to their standards, documentation, training material, news and contact point.
# Linking to exiting portals, such as MIBBI, but also open access resources, such as BMC Research Notes and Nature Precedings, with documents or publications on standards.
COMMUNICATION FORUM: The BioSharing communication forum aims to maintain linkages between stakeholders, in particular funders and leaders of the standardization efforts, to enable flow of information and mutual support.
# Lobbying for intra-harmonization within the two stakeholders groups to promote
## exchange of ideas and policy components among public and private funders, and between funders and potential fundees, to ensure the difference among the policies (such as the reporting standards supported) ultimately do not impede seamless interoperability of the data;
## cross-project activities among the standardization efforts to create interoperable reporting standards and to avoid unnecessary overlap, duplication of effort and incompatible tools.
# Identifying a mutual support system between the two stakeholders groups to ensure
## funding agencies are abreast with challenges the standardization efforts face and can provide targeted funds to sustain their development and maintenance;
## ensure that when community-developed standards are mature and appropriate standards-compliant systems become available these are channeled to the appropriate funding agencies, who in turn endorse them in their data sharing policies, thus achieving wider harmonization of the data.
OUTREACH AND COLLABORATIVE ACTIVITIES: BioSharing will have a combination or targeted and open-attendance meetings, normally as part of larger meetings so as to reach as broad an audience as possible especially potential fundees and therefore future users of standards. BioSharing is open to collaborations with interested parties working on related initiatives, also to establish (bi-directional) links with other relevant resource to enrich and enhance the catalogues. urce to enrich and enhance the catalogues.
