COAR - Confederation of Open Access Repositories: Reaching out to global interoperability through aligning repository networks Kathleen Shearer, COAR Executive Director, kathleen.shearer@coar-repositories.org Maxie Putlitz, COAR Office, office@coar-repositories.org Katharina Müller, COAR Office, office@coar-repositories.org COAR, the Confederation of Open Access Repositories, is a dynamic association of repository initiatives launched in October 2009, uniting roughly 100 members and partners from 35 countries from throughout Australia, Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and North America. The association aims to enhance greater visibility and application of research outputs through global networks of Open Access digital repositories. Activities of COAR members and partners are undertaken in working and interest groups as well as task forces. Work areas range from repository content, global interoperability, over education and training to monitoring new trends and developments in the open access repository community. This poster will outline COAR’s latest activities in order to inform the broader repository community and promote greater collaboration with others. COAR is an international organization based in Goettingen, Germany. The association acts as forum to learn about new trends; engage with international colleagues in the repository community; and ensure repositories adhere to global best practices and interoperability standards. COAR also actively promotes the role of repositories within the broader scholarly ecosystem and works with other actors to ensure alignment of services and infrastructure globally. Members and partners come together once a year in a general annual meeting to discuss important developments of the association and in the repository community. COAR has undertaken several activities over the last year to foster global repository interoperability through the initiative “Aligning Repository Networks”. In this initiative several major international organizations joined together to underscore their support for immediate open access to research articles and aim for harmonized standards and common vocabularies. A petition has been set up which is still open for endorsements. Moreover in early February 2015 the Interoperability Working Group published the COAR Roadmap: Future Directions for Repository Interoperability. The roadmap identifies important trends and their associated action points for the repository community and will assist COAR in identifying priority areas for our interoperability

CMBI Introduction The FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) principles [1] were proposed to guide researchers to describe and share their data to increase data reuse and research reproducibility. Creating FAIR data can be challenging for multi-omics researchers due to a lack of tooling and a diverse landscape of (meta)data standards differing across -omics types. In X-omics [2], we develop a FAIR Data Cube [3] – a set of tools and services that help researchers in different stages of the Research Data Life Cycle including Creation and publish of multi-omics and metadata, Querying multi-omics studies, Analyzing access-protected data. The Implementation and Demonstration of the X-omics FAIR Data Cube XiaoFeng Liao1, Anna Niehues1,2, Martin Brandt3, Tom Ederveen1, Junda Huang1, Purva Kulkarni1,2, Casper de Visser1, Cenna Doornbos1, Joeri van der Velde4, Michael van Vliet5 and Peter-Bram ’t Hoen1 ¹Center for Molecular and Biomolecular Informatics, Radboud UMC, Nijmegen, The Netherlands, ²Translational Metabolic Laboratory, Radboud UMC, Nijmegen, The Netherlands, ³SURF, Amsterdam, The Netherlands, ⁴Genomics Coordination Center and Department of Genetics, University of Groningen and UMCG, The Netherlands, ⁵Division of Analytical Biosciences, Leiden Academic Centre for Drug Research, Leiden University, The Netherlands.

Team design for team science Emerging Methods and Tools for Sparking New Global Creative Networks COINs15 Tokyo – Jeff Horon, Consultant, Elsevier Research Intelligence – http://jeffhoron.com Emerging methods and tools are changing the ways participants in global creative networks become aware of each other and proceed to interact. Some web-based resources intended to spark new collaborations in creative networks have been plagued by dependence on fragmented or out-of-date information, having shallow recall (e.g. limited to a list of manually curated keywords), offering poor interconnectivity with other systems, and/or obtaining low end-user adoption. Increased availability of information about creative network participants' activities and outputs (e.g. completed sponsored research projects and published results, aggregated into global databases), coupled with advancement in information processing techniques like Natural Language Processing, enables new web-based technologies for discovering subject matter experts, facilities, and networks of current and potential collaborators. Large-scale data resources and NLP allow modern versions of these tools to avoid the problems of having sparse data and also provide for deep recall across many disciplinary vocabularies. These are "passive" technologies, from the perspective of the network participant, because the agent must undertake an action to use the information resources. Emerging "active" methods and tools utilize the same types of information and technologies, but actively intervene in the formation of the creative network by suggesting connections and arranging virtual or physical interactions. Active approaches can achieve very high end-user adoption rates. Both active and passive methods strive to use data-driven approaches to form better-than-chance awareness among networks of potential collaborators. Recent case studies suggest the existence of repeatable strategies for facilitating data-driven matching and better-than-chance interactions designed to spark new global creative networks. Abstract Active / Interventional Networking Methods Passive Networking Suggested casual interactions at physical events and These emerging methods and tools suggest the existence of repeatable strategies for facilitating data-driven matching and better- than-chance interactions designed to spark new global creative networks. As these methods become further systematized and see wider adoption, they are poised to influence larger numbers of creative networks and their participants. Conclusions scheduled interactions at physical events Identification via mining network structures Outcomes Identification via survey / self-identification Arrange researchers and concepts into a self-organizing bipartite network Eliminate matches that already collaborate The remainder are suggested matches… …. with suggested conceptual connections Participants specify interests, expertise, and needs (often discipline-specific) Score potential matches Issue recommendations

They’re widely used as drug carriers mainly because of their ability to efficiently carry and release drug molecules, thereby improving drug bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy. The design of such drug carriers also helps to overcome some of the limitations of conventional drugs such as biostability, water solubility and drug distribution in the body. The Polyolefin family is a class of polymers derived from simple hydrocarbons with a wide range of promising drug delivery applications. These materials, which include polyethylene and polypropylene, have a number of unique properties suitable for various pharmaceutical applications. For example, Polyolefins' inertness, biocompatibility, and ability to be tailored to specific drug release profiles make them particularly attractive for the design of drug delivery systems. In addition, Polyolefin-based drug delivery systems offer excellent stability, ensuring that drug formulations remain intact over time. The biodegradability and minimal toxicity of Polyolefins also make them attractive for the development of sustained-release formulations. Moreover, the tunable properties of Polyolefins allow modulation of drug release kinetics, resulting in precise control of the therapeutic dose. This family of polymers has proven advantageous in improving the efficacy and safety of drug release and overcoming the challenges associated with conventional formulations. As research continues, the Polyolefin family will continue to attract the attention of scientists and pharmaceutical experts, demonstrating its potential to revolutionize drug delivery strategies and improve patient outcomes. CD Bioparticles recognizes the potential of the Polyolefin family for pharmaceutical applications and has developed innovative drug delivery systems using Polyolefins based on their inherent properties. The company is committed to working with partners on a number of research and development projects aimed at delivering a variety of drugs using Polyolefins and bringing these novel drug delivery systems to market. Furthermore, CD Bioparticles strives to make further groundbreaking contributions to the field of drug delivery and will continue to honor its commitment to innovation.
