Forwarded on behalf of the DataCite team. Dear Colleagues, Join us for an exciting panel discussion on October 12 at 16:00, on the central role of funders in promoting FAIR research practices and advancing Open Science. In this panel, we will hear perspectives from funding organizations and open scholarly infrastructures on how the adoption of PIDs and the creation of rich connection metadata can serve as a concrete step towards Open and FAIR grant management, output tracking, and impact measurement. We look forward to hearing from the following panelists: • Maria Cruz (Dutch Research Council) • Kristin Eldon Whylly (Templeton World Charity Foundation) • Erin McKiernan (Open Research Funders Group) • Xiaoli Chen (DataCite) • Amanda French (ROR) • Ginny Hendricks (Crossref) • Shawna Sadler (ORCID) Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions to our panelists during the discussion session.
