Marco Brandizi and Keywan Hassani-Pak, Rothamsted Research, Invited Presentation at SWAT4HCLS 2022.
FAIR data principles are being a driving force in life sciences and other scientific domains, helping researchers to share their data and free all of their potential to integrate information and do novel discoveries. Knowledge graphs are an ever more popular paradigm to model data according to such principles, and technologies such as graph databases are emerging as complementary to approaches like linked data. All of this includes the agronomy, farming and food domains. How advanced the adoption of sound data management policies is in these life domains? How does that compare to other life sciences? In this presentation, we will talk about our practical experience, focusing on KnetMiner, a gene and molecular biology discovering platform, which is based on building and publishing knowledge graphs according to the FAIR principles, as well as using a mix of linked data standards for life sciences and recent graph database and API technologies. We will welcome questions and discussions from the audience about similar experience.
Sharing data with lightweight data standards, such as schema.org and bioschemas. The Knetminer case, an application for the agrifood domain and molecular biology.
Presented at Open Data Sicilia (#ODS2021)
How open data contribute to improving the world. The life science use case. The technical, social, ethical issues.
This was a talk given within the iGEM 2020 programme by the London Imperial College students group (https://2020.igem.org/Team:Imperial_College), in a webinar organised by the SOAPLab group on the topic of Ethics of Automation. Excellent Dr Brandon Sepulvado was the other speaker of the day.
This workshop aims at gathering together practioners of all levels and from a variety of research areas (agronomy, plant biology, food, life sciences etc) to compare best practices, points of views and projects about producing and consuming data in the agrifood field.
As it happens in general for digital data, the current trends in this arena include integration of "traditional" semantic-based approaches (eg, ontoloies, RDF-based linked data) with lightweight schemas (eg, Bioschemas/schema.org), use of JSON-based APIs, development of data lakes and knowledge graphs based on NoSQL technologies, graph databases based on property graphs (eg, Neo4j, TinkerPop/Gremlin).
Workshop participants will get an opportunity to discuss how those approaches and technologies are being used in the agrifood field, for the purpose or realising the FAIR data principles and make data sharing a powerful tool for research, industry or socio-economic investigation. In particular, we will propose an interactive session to outline the way participant-proposed datasets can be encoded through bioschemas or similar approaches.

Getting the best of Linked Data and Property Graphs: rdf2neo and the KnetMine...Rothamsted Research, UK
Graph-based modelling is becoming more popular, in the sciences and elsewhere, as a flexible and powerful way to exploit data to power world-changing digital applications. Com- pared to the initial vision of the Semantic Web, knowledge graphs and graph databases are be- coming a practical and computationally less formal way to manage graph data. On the other hand, linked data based on Semantic Web standards are a complementary, rather than alternative, ap- proach to deal with these data, since they still provide a common way to represent and exchange information. In this paper we introduce rdf2neo, a tool to populate Neo4j databases starting from RDF data sets, based on a configurable mapping between the two. By employing agrigenomics- related real use cases, we show how such mapping can allow for a hybrid approach to the man- agement of networked knowledge, based on taking advantage of the best of both RDF and prop- erty graphs.

myequivalents is a system to manage cross-references between entities that can be identified by pairs composed of a service name (e.g., EBI's ArrayExpress, Wikipedia) and an accession (e.g., E-MEXP-2514, Barack_Obama). For those familiar with the Semantic Web, we plan to support identification of entities via URIs and the owl:sameAs property. For those who already know MIRIAM and identifiers.org, myequivalents is more general than them and we plan to support these services in future.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

This session provides a comprehensive overview of the latest updates to the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly known as the Uniform Guidance) outlined in the 2 CFR 200.
With a focus on the 2024 revisions issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), participants will gain insight into the key changes affecting federal grant recipients. The session will delve into critical regulatory updates, providing attendees with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and comply with the evolving landscape of federal grant management.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the rationale behind the 2024 updates to the Uniform Guidance outlined in 2 CFR 200, and their implications for federal grant recipients.
- Identify the key changes and revisions introduced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the 2024 edition of 2 CFR 200.
- Gain proficiency in applying the updated regulations to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements and avoid potential audit findings.
- Develop strategies for effectively implementing the new guidelines within the grant management processes of their respective organizations, fostering efficiency and accountability in federal grant administration.
