The paperwork took a while but it's finally formal - I am now a tenured senior researcher @INAB_Institute! This wouldn't have been possible without the amazing people that I'm working with, or the support of my family. So, my heartfelt thanks go to them first and foremost.🙏✨🤓

PUBMED is down. disaster !! We don’t have the organization to replace it. (EuroPMC is great but not a replacement) It is crystal clear that we cannot depend on critical systems from a single provider. European reaction has to include science and science infrastructures.

@fopsom @CERTHellas, @ELIXIREurope, @eosc_everse Cooperation between academia & RIs needed to upscale rsearchers. Quick solution is the "train the trainers" approach for RI users to make the most out of the RI facilties. #ICRI2024 Role of RIs in training the digital workforce

We just got the 1st @eosc_everse #newsletter. Have you read it yet? Learn all about this fascinating European project that is dedicated to establishing a common understanding of #openscience services, with a distinct focus on research software, with Project leader @fopsom who talks about the background and the goals of #EVERSE. -Check the link below: linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

@fairimpact_eu continues on their #NationalRoadshow towards Greece. @fopsom will represent #EVERSE at the online event on Monday, 18th November (10.30 CET). Register here to join: fair-impact.eu/events/fair-im…

📣 Join ELIXIR for a side event at #ICRI2024. Collaborating with @AusBiocommons 🙌, we will give insight into the partnership between Australian BioCommons and ELIXIR. 📆 6 December 2024 | 🕘 9:00 - 13:00 | 🇦🇺 Brisbane, Australia More information 👉 loom.ly/TRWs1HA

@AMathelier @katancmm @NCMMnews #shameless_plug The @eosc_everse project aims to really capture this aspect and it would be really great to have your perspective as part of the EVERSE network everse.software/network/. 🤓

@AMathelier @katancmm @NCMMnews Many thanks to you and your time for your work and for sharing this - really interesting read, and I particularly like the statement that "teamwork directly impacts code quality through knowledge sharing, collective software development, and established coding standards"!

🧵 Bioinformatics faces a critical challenge: despite its importance, software quality often falls short due to the lack of proper development practices. In our latest paper, we advocate for improving software quality in bioinformatics through teamwork. doi.org/10.1093/bioinf…

Following the launch of the #EOSCEUNode, today’s session “Deep dive into the EOSC EU Node” featured insights from experts like Spyros Athanasiou @athenaRICinfo , Dr. Sandra Diaz Pier, Angeliki Adamaki, and Ivan Janmaat. They shared real-world use cases, from enhancing #neuroscience with HPC to optimizing #research in multi-hazard environments, and discussed the Node's potential for boosting scientific #collaboration. The session wrapped up with a lively Q&A. Enjoy some highlights! #EOSC #EOSCSymposium24 #ResearchCollaboration #Innovation

Worth noting though that trustworthy AI requires equal care on all involved components of the process, and not only on the data and compute aspects. High quality software has a clear impact towards building a ML model - and I am happy that @eosc_everse specifically targets this.

Last day of the @eoscassociation #eoscsymposium2024, with a focus on FAIR data and #AI. A gap was identified: ensuring clear provenance between models and the underlying data. A solution could be community-led standards for ML reporting, eg the @ELIXIREurope DOME recommendations.

Here goes the panel discussion on #competencecentres with our project leader @fopsom

@fopsom Our sister projects and we are looking forwards to your input! What needs should be addressed in your #sciencecluster and community? As EVERSE we aim to collect existing models and adopt & adapt them accordingly to #researchsoftware in each field.

Really happy to see the aspects of quality, community driven vision, and need for reward and recognition for research #software to be raised by @moraneottilia at @eoscassociation #eoscsymposium2024! And thrilled that @eosc_everse is attempting to directly tackle those. 🤓
