CCC Becomes a Founding Member of the Leiden Institute for FAIR and Equitable Science
CCC joined forces with other industry stakeholders to launch the Leiden Institute for FAIR and Equitable Science (LIFES). “In recognition of the challenges that exist with data reuse within the global research community, LIFES is a joint effort by an international public-private partnership of eleven academic and private organizations to build a wide and diverse network of public and private members that want to incorporate FAIR data principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) and equitable data reuse within their organizations,” CCC states. LIFES aims to “facilitate access to FAIR-compliant applications and services that support efficient data sharing, improve research reproducibility, and enhance collaboration across different domains and disciplines.”“Data accessibility is becoming increasingly central to research, and a quantifiable sense of data reproducibility is crucial for research-intensive organizations, especially in this era of generative AI,” says Babis Marmanis, CCC’s EVP and CTO. “The mission of LIFES is to advance scientific research and innovation, which is important to CCC, our partners, and customers. Datasets that follow the FAIR data principles can spur innovation, promote inclusivity, and support sustainability.” For more information and a list of the other founding partners, read the press release.
