Reproducibility, Linked Open Data & Semantic Interoperability

-
Online

FORS and the Swiss National Data and Service Center for the Humanities (DaSCH) offer a series of free online data management webinars. 
This webinar will be hosted by Rita Gautschy (DaSCH) and Emilie Morgan de Paula (FORS). It will explore how reproducibility in the social sciences and semantic interoperability in the humanities can be strengthened through shared data infrastructures and linked open data approaches. The webinar will also introduce the broader context of the replication crisis and present some research practices that aim to improve transparency and verifiability in the research process.

Participants will learn how structured, machine-readable data and persistent identifiers enable transparent research workflows, facilitate data reuse, and support the verification of research results. The session will also discuss practices that support reproducible research in the social sciences, such as sharing analysis code, pre-registration, and the use of preprints to promote transparency in the research and publication process. At the same time, the talk highlights the role of semantic models and linked data in connecting heterogeneous humanities datasets across institutions and disciplines. The webinar is free but registration is needed here.
