M.C., J.H., L.L., G.O., J.R.M. and P.D.K. designed the study, analysed the data, and prepared this manuscript. J.H. and L.L. performed B-cell sorting, antibody cloning, epitope mapping assay, MPER-specific neutralizing sera screening and assessed the impact of sequence variation on 10E8 neutralization. M.K.L. and J.R.M. tested the breadth and potency of 10E8. B.C., S.K.S. and R.W. performed the infected cell surface staining and antibody-virion washout assays. S.M.A. and B.F.H. performed the autoreactivity assays. G.O., Y.Y. and P.D.K. performed 10E8 structural analysis, with T.W. and B.Z. assisting with paratope alanine scanning. R.T.B. screened the B-cell culture supernatants for neutralization activity. H.I. sequenced the patient N152 virus. S.A.M. led the clinical care of the patients. M.C., L.L., N.A.D.-R. and N.S.L. optimized B-cell culture protocol.

CRediT taxonomy


A simple taxonomy of roles intrinsic to research

Important implementation points


Taxonomy of contributions does not define authorship!!

The CRediT taxonomy includes, but is not limited to, traditional authorship roles.

These roles are not intended to define what constitutes authorship.

Other implementation points:

• simple for broad adoption, but may require nuances

• multiple contributions

• who assigns?

• acknowledgements

• more than articles

Experiments and applications for a common vocabulary


To make contributions portable and machine-readable

AGENDA

• Why track peer review service

• The PRS project

• Use cases

• Project outputs

• Call for implementers

• Summary

@rnl_s | @f1000 | @f1000research

WHY TRACK PEER REVIEW SERVICE?

• Peer review takes a significant proportion of researchers’ time

• Peer review as a service is crucial to scientific progress

• Peer review is used in many areas:o Funding – individual and institutional grantso Career progressiono Publishing – books, journals, monographs etco Conferences

• Increasing time pressures on researchers harder to find reviewers:o Reduced funding; increased ‘publish or perish’ cultureo More peer review requests

• Community is asking for better recognition of this key service


http://casrai.org/standards/subject-groups/peer-review-services



USE CASES

• Use Case 1 – Article Peer Review: Open Review

• Use Case 2 – Article Peer Review: Closed Review

• Use Case 3 – Conference Topic/Meeting Abstract Submission Review

• Use Case 4 – General Review Service Recognition

• Use Case 5 – University/Faculty and Department External Review

• Use Case 6 – Annotation

WHAT STAGE IS THE PROJECT NOW?

• Draft profile created and was opened up to large Review Circle

• Profile edited based on that feedback, and first version now published: http://dictionary.casrai.org/Peer_Review_Services

• Encouraging implementation by all stakeholder groups. Early adopters include:o F1000: F1000Research and F1000Primeo American Geophysical Union, working with eJournalPresso The APSA’s Politics and Religion journalo Peerage of Scienceo Europe PubMedCentralo Kudos

• Continued monitoring and updates to data profile as necessary


http://dictionary.casrai.org/Peer_Review_Services

CALL FOR IMPLEMENTATION

• We call on all organisations that use peer review to enable their referees to get proper credit for the work they do.

• If interested, look at the standard, talk to ORCID, and let us know you are implementing so we can help promote that.

We’ll be promoting this over the next few months soplease help us spread the word!

Evaluation of CASRAIConcerns

• Needs for information architecture that covers more aspects. Cf. CERIF. – Compatibility of CASRAI and CERIF not yet verified in relation to

Swedish systems in the Swedish research information ecosystem - needs to be explored further (ongoing)

• Global reach limited.

Evaluation of CASRAIStrengths• CASRAI provides a forum for collaboration.• CASRAI is supported by EuroCRIS, as complementary to

CERIF• Provides a common and agreed upon vocabulary and

definitions for objects on a conceptual and semantic level.

• Co-projects within CASRAI allow us to synchronise our efforts with discussions and developments at other organisations and in other countries.

Advice Research & developme

ntWe provide institutions, their students and researchers secure, cost-effective access to the UK’s richest collection of digital resources.

We provide the HE sector with Janet, the Jisc network, advanced infrastructure services and collaboration platforms.

We listen to our members to ensure we offer them quality support, guidance and tools - estimated to save the sector £122 million in cost efficiencies each year.

Identifying emerging technologies and developing them around our members’ needs. Testing and learning on their behalf to ensure they are ready to take advantage of new technologies as they arrive.

49

The UK research context: General

» Many institutions and research institutes (within and outside universities)

» Many research funders (UK Research Councils represent 30% of total research income *13 other priority funders mentioned)

» Varied infrastructure – Institutional Repositories, CRIS’s, one of these, neither or both

» Changing environment › Mandates effecting research information and

research data› Increasing importance of external (non-

governmental) funding › Interdisciplinary and international focus

› Organisational Identifiers

• Explore possible sources of authoritative lists of organisations involved in UK research, including research performing organisations, charities, industry, etc.

• Develop a sustainable process for maintaining authoritative lists of organisations in the CASRAI dictionary.

OrgId review: Recommendations

9/03/2015

One single candidate would not fulfil all the criteria it would be useful to separate the infrastructure element (the provision and maintenance of the orgID itself) and the service element (the services offered both tor registrants and to end users of the services).

4 candidates:UK PRNDigital ScienceISNIRinggold

Jisc Digital Festival, 9-10 March 2015, ICC Birmingham 65

» A hybrid approach with ISNI as the backbone.

» In considering registration solutions and value-added services, organisations should bear in mind that, in the short term, Ringgold is the most developed agency conforming to the above

» Other service providers should be encouraged to deliver value added services on top of ISNI e.g. Digital Science could be registration agency for ISNIs

» CrossRef should consider creating and maintaining a crosswalk or table of equivalence between FundRef IDs and ISNI

» Jisc should investigate the possibilities and costs of a bulk deal for UK academic institutions for value added services with Ringgold and (in time) with other service providers.

» UK stakeholders (BL, HEFCE and others) to consider the need for a UK-based registration agency and how bulk creation/checking of ISNIs (and bulk registration and/or the creation of a table of equivalence for UKPRNs) might take place for UK academic institutions and other organisations involved in research

OrgId Review – Key recommendations

09/03/2015

66


› OA Reporting Working Group

• Original intention to develop a profile covering all ‘research outcomes’

• Too much! – scope narrowed to cover only publications , and the metadata needed to report on compliance with funders OA mandates

• Still complex! (RCUK, HEFCE, EU (OpenAIRE, Horizon 2020)….) – some elements not specified by Funder turn out to be necessary after all…

• Slow but steady progress – work continues, building on RIOXX and Jisc-funded E2E

• Use-case approach helping to focus• Consultant recruited to provide dedicated resource –

analysis of minimum metadata needed to address all funder requirements.

67

Jisc-CASRAI pilot key learning points

› Choose topics/areas for the process with care – maturity is key

› Bear in mind the level of work required – 3 simultaneous working groups in the UK was a lot to manage

› Engagement with some stakeholders was an issue for some groups – (range of Funders, Vendors and Publishers)

› Probably value in some face to face meetings pre-working groups to get to know you

68

Jisc-CASRAI pilot – next steps

› Have evaluated the pilot via questionnaire and some meetings

› Are working with CASRAI currently to work out how UK best engages going forward

› All those involved saw value in the work the pilot has delivered

› Also ongoing value in a co-ordinated approach to UK engagement with CASRAI

› Acknowledgement of strengths of the process

› Particular/specific value for us in the UK is a sustainable place to lodge standards agreement via the Data Dictionary

69

In Summary

“The time will come when diligent research over long periods will bring to light things which now lie hidden. A single lifetime, even though entirely devoted to the sky, would not be enough for the investigation of so

vast a subject... And so this knowledge will be unfolded only through long successive ages. There will

come a time when our descendants will be amazed that we did not know things that are so plain to

them..”
