Fantastic #BOSC2025 panel on data sustainability to cap off the conference. #ISMBECCB2025

Make Data Count - Finding Data References Identify scientific data use in papers and classify how they are mentioned.

Quick shout out for the Make Data Count challenge to improve data citation from @gigascience.bsky.social's Scott Edmunds. Looks cool and 💲prizes! #BOSC2025 #ISMBECCB2025 www.kaggle.com/competitions...

The O3 guidelines: open data, open code, and open infrastructure for sustainable curated scientific resources - Scientific Data Curated resources that support scientific research often go out of date or become inaccessible. This can happen for several reasons including lack of continuing funding, the departure of key personnel...

Keeping a data resource alive is a huge challenge. Lots of different guidelines being discussed in the #BOSC2025 panel for data resources including the O3 guidelines #ISMBECCB2025 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Guy ending his talk telling the #BOSC2025 audience if they value global data infrastructure sign their open letter globalbiodata.org/open-letter-... #ISMBECCB2025

Thinking globally, Guy telling us the Global Biodata coalition, with 11 funders in the coalition and many more observing organisations #BOSC2025 #ISMBECCB2025

Closing session at #BOSC2025, Guy Cochrane talking about the Global Biodata Infrastructure, hopefully framing things for the sustainability panel (which our EiC @scedmunds.bsky.social is participating in #ISMB2025 #ISMBECCB2025
