1. The Report of the European Commission’s FAIR data expert group, “Turning FAIR into Reality”, was published last week as part of the launch of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) in Vienna. FAIR data principles are a key aspect to open science, and to best practices in data archiving, sharing and reuse going forward. For more information and a link to the report, please see: https://www.dri.ie/eosc-launch-vienna. DOI for distribution is https://doi.org/10.2777/1524
