FAIR data management: best practices and open issues
2. *researchers ask the wrong
questions
*study designs are
inadequate or
inappropriate
*studies are not reported
appropriately,
or are either not
published
*Publish or perish -
Predatory journals
* Misconduct, metrics
85% OF RESEARCH IS WASTE

How science
goes wrong:
Scientific
research has
changed the
world. Now it
needs to
change itself

3. CoBRA is a Reporting Guideline
for the Standardized
Citation Of BioResources in scientific journal Articles
What is CoBRA
Author guidelines promote open research culture
help transparency, openness, and reproducibility of the results
SCIENTIFIC STANDARDS POLICY (B. A. Nosek et alScience 26 Jun 2015)
The Reporting Guidelines help to improve completeness and
clearness of research articles.
The Reporting Guidelines are essential resources for writing and
publishing health research.

5. The biological material is essential
raw material for research and for
development of biotechnological
applications
It is crucial to share this
patrimony
6. Biological samples
with associated data
Health Databases
organized collection of data and
information by inputting, storing,
retrieving and managing and updating,
registry
Bioresources
Bioresources: It includes biological samples and associated data
(classification / characterization, epidemiological and /or clinical
data as well as omics, imaging etc)..
The “concrete” part of sample decrease in quantity
The “data” associated to sample, that is the "knowledge" of the
sample, increase over the time.
the samples are transformed in data and data…do not move!!
7. Bioresources data are :
static (i.e.: provenance, primary material description)
dynamic (i.e.: sequence of steps is relevant
some steps occur repeatedly (transport – processing – storage)
8. Limitations of existing concepts
● inconsistent data items
● no common vocabulary
● highly application and/or domain specific
● scarce information on handling, processing,
storage
● no indicators for data quality
● data measured, inferred, guessed?
● sequence of actions not documented
● lacking information on time course (only
duration)
● predominantly free text
⇒ not interoperable
⇒ digital processing difficult.
File format needed
● reflecting the whole
sequence of
processing
● including methods (eg.
by stable reference)
● continued collection of
data along the
process path (from
acquisition to analysis)
● full traceability
comparability of samples from different sources
reproducibility of data generated from the samples
Sample data
9. Advantages of data sharing
OA as a moral imperative 2000
OA policies – institutions, funding bodies, governments
Size of OA citation advantage when found
(and where explicitly stated by discipline)
% increase
in citations
with Open
Access
Physics/astronomy 170 to 580
Mathematics 35 to 91
Biology -5 to 36
Electrical engineering 51
Computer science 157
Political science 86
Philosophy 45
Medicine 300 to 450
Communications studies (IT) 200
Agricultural sciences 200 to 600
Citation advantage
Swan, Alma (2010) The Open Access citation advantage
10. BRIF initiative is a an international and multidisciplinary work in
progress initiative that is developing a framework for recognition of
bioresources contribution to Research
Final objective is to create tools that will:
- Facilitate the practice of sharing policies for data and samples
- Promote a philosophy of sharing in the biomedical community
- Facilitate accurate acknowledgement of resource use
in scientific publications and grants via unique resource identifiers
- Develop tools that enable to establish frequency of use of
bioresources and evaluate their impact (develop algorithm metrics)
• Biobank partners
• Computational biologists
• Computer scientists
• Genome/genetics scientists
• Epidemiologists
• Jurists, lawyers
• Ethicists
• Experts in impact factors
• Bibliometricists
• Journal Editors, Publisher
• Researchers/users
The Bioresource Research Impact Factor initiative (BRIF)
11. * Organization : Working subgroups
‘BRIF & Digital Identifiers’
‘BRIF Parameters’
‘BRIF in Access & Sharing Policies’
‘BRIF dissemination’
‘BRIF and Journal Editors’
Sensitize journal editors to BRIF issues
Standardize citations in journal articles
To develop tool for literature tracing of the bioresource use
12. * Current citation of bioresources use in scientific
literature
- multiplicity of sections where
bioresources are acknowledged
(Material & Methods,
Acknowledgements, References…)
- bioresource acknowledgement or
citation placed outside the main paper
(or in online supplementary materials)
- typing errors or approximation of the
bioresource name/identification:
multiplicity of names for a given
bioresource; different languages;
- cascade use of resources (e.g. Family
samples that are themselves part of
several other projects
- absence of citation (negligence)
- acknowledgement of persons
instead of bioresources itself
- absence of acknowledgement for
the bioresource used (negligence)
- suitable to refer to one type of
bioresource but not for any
derived, or secondary
bioresources
- No standardized way to
incentivise researchers to
acknowledge properly the
bioresource used
- Websites that no more exist
With minor changes from.: Mabile et al. GigaScience 2013, 2:7
Most of the citation can be detected via full-text mining (not
indexed in Pubmed or Web of Science)
13. Literature tracking inadequate, difficult to trace
(not indexed in PubMed or Web of Science)
Scarce Visibility of researcher, institution, sponsor
Lack of recognition for work of setting up and
maintaining a valid bioresource
Biobank USE has not measureable value for career
development (bibliometric issues)
Lack of incentives for sharing – Underutilization of
bioresources – Waste of existing patrimony
Lack of simple formats to give information on samples
and data used for research - Reduced reproducibility
* Citation: Lack of standard,
lack of incentives
14. * Citation of BioResources
in journal Articles
The more you give access to the resources
the more you are cited !!!
standardizing citation of bioresources in
scientific trace their use on the web and
promote access
15. * CoBRA checklist
Article text section Guidance
* Abstract Indicate whether the work has used one or more bioresources,
and specify their number if relevant.
* Introduction Indicate that the work used one or more bioresources.
Specify the type.
* Methods Report each individual bioresource used to perform the study:
- by their name and other ID, if existent, and
- by a single bibliographic reference.
*(Bioresource) Reference
Cite each bioresource used as follows:
ID/Bioresource Name (acronym if available)/
Organisation or network partnership/
Number of access(es), Date of last access;
[BIORESOURCE]
16. *Main CoBRA features
The [BIORESOURCE] reference:
ID/ DOI/ Bioresource Name (acronym if available)/
How: specific indications for ID / DOI / Name
Significance: It is immediately implementable
Organisation or network partnership/
How: report membership / partnership in consortia / networks
organizations
Significance: The biobank is individually cited and recognized
Recognize value of partnership /networking
Number of access(es), Date of last access
How: Number of access(es); date of last access
Significance: Recognition of “quantitative work” and appreciation
connected to routinely specialized activities
[BIORESOURCE]
How: Add the tag [BIORESOURCE] ONLY for bioresource USED for
Significance: TRACK the USE of bioresource for research/ application
17. (bioresource) Reference
Example 5: The bioresource has a DOI and has to be cited
Case 1: NO-USE: Citation for any case but “use” of the bioresource.
Consuegra I, Jimenez J L, D. The Spanish HIV HGM BioBank (SHIVBB). Biopreservation
and Biobanking. 2013, 11(4): 253-254. doi:10.1089/bio.2013.1133.
Case 2: USE: Citation for a bioresource that contributed to the article with samples and /
or data.
Consuegra I, Jimenez J L,D. The Spanish HIV HGM BioBank (SHIVBB). Biopreservation
and Biobanking. 2013, 11(4): 253-254. doi:10.1089/bio.2013.1133; No. Access: 2, Last:

[BIORESOURCE]
tag to indicate USE of the bioresource
To differentiate citation of bioresources not used from citation of bioresource
used as a source of material for the study

awarded the Community legal framework and ISS has the mandate
to ensure Italian participation
The ERIC Legal framework
Internationally recognized legal entity
ERIC facilitate the joint establishment and operation of research
infrastructures of European interest (ESFRI roadmap)

25. RDA builds the social and technical bridges
that enable open sharing of data
CoBRA implementation is a tool
to track the use and favor the access to samples
and data
.. complementarity, synergy and collaboration
among the initiatives are necessary to move
forward
* a long list of things to do…
