Which are the dimensions of quality data, how it leads to replicable science and why the research infrastructures need to invest in quality data services – both internal and external? In his speech during the ESFRI Roadmap 2018 Launch Event, Yannis Ioannidis, Director of Athena Research Center and Professor of the University of Athens, highlights the importance of FAIR data -data that is fair, reusable, reproducible, replicable- and the major role that research infrastructures have to play in allowing, delivering and guaranteeing controllable data quality available to scientists.
During the event, which took place in Vienna, in the frame of the Austrian Presidency in the EU, the fifth Strategy Report and Roadmap 2018 of ESFRI (European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures) was launched in the presence of more than 300 participants from the field of research infrastructures, research, policy and industry worldwide.
