With over 10000 members from 145 countries, RDA provides a neutral space where its members can come together to develop and adopt infrastructure that promotes data-sharing and data-driven research
This whiteboard is open to all RDA discipline specialists willing to give a personal account of what data-related challenges they are facing and how RDA is helping them
Status: Recognised & Endorsed Working Group on Standardisation of data categories and codes, working specifically with the ISO 639. The outputs of this Working Group will assist with greater data sharing, data discovery, and interoperability of repositories/archives
This working group is involved in creating well-defined terms that describe storage services, especially in the areas of Quality of Service and Data Life-cycle. These terms should describe what the users (the scientists) can expect from the storage service, allowing them to compare different storage options and choose where to store their data with some confidence at how the storage service will behave.
Status: Recognised & Endorsed This Interest Group will focus on Structural Biology which is concerned with the determination of the three-dimensional (3D) structures of individual biomacromolecules (proteins and nucleic acids), and with those of complexes and higher order structures formed by association of these individual components.
Status: Recognised & Endorsed The objective of this interest group is to prepare for a working group on toxicogenomics interoperability. The aim of the working group is to outline a roadmap toward enhancing interoperability of existing toxicogenomics databases.
