PHAIDRAcon'22: Roundtable 1 | What do we need from research data standards?

There is a growing consensus that sharing data is the key to opening up siloed research projects towards a more productive, interconnected ecosystem. While some valid concerns, conditions and exceptions remain, the widespread adoption of FAIR Data Principles and the increasing use of Linked Open Data illustrates the real appetite for greater sharing.
With growing agreement in principle, this roundtable explores the practicalities of storing data in a way that makes it more valuable, accessible and promotes sharing. Our expert panel explores the vital role of standards for data and metadata, as well as new technologies and methodologies emerging which could help with the challenges.
