    Brief introduction describing the activities and scope of the group
    The group formed at P10 in Montreal in September 2017 and aims to facilitate cross-domain exchange and convergence on key issues related to the digital representation of physical samples and collections, including but not limited to use of globally unique and persistent identifiers for samples to support unambiguous citation and linking of information in distributed data systems and with publications, metadata standards for documenting samples and collections and for landing pages, access policies, and best practices for sample and collection catalogue, including a broad range of issues from interoperability to persistence. As an interest group, we seek to showcase new for community developments that promote the use of the sample and its connections to any derived observations, images and analytical data.  We also seek to help individual communities identify what is truly unique about their samples but still make it easy to interoperate within the global samples ecosystem.

    I Understand a Chair Must be Present at the Event to Hold the Breakout Session
    Yes

    Meeting objectives
    The overall objective is to provide attendees with information on new developments/projects on Physical Samples and their importance in the Research Data Ecosystem.
     
    The first part of this session will provide several short updates from the international sample management community to highlight progress in integrating physical sample information in the research data ecosystem. 
     
    In the second part of the session, we will have a deep dive into applying the CARE Principles (https://www.gida-global.org/care) to physical samples and derived research outputs. Many physical samples start as part of the natural world. When collected, these physical samples create connections across the natural history value chain from field sites to labs to repositories and museums. However, the collection of the samples and the natural history value chain have historically not included consent from the local Indigenous communities that the samples come from or Indigenous metadata included in the sample description. 
     
    This session will discuss the implementation of CARE principles across the sample lifecycle, from planning to collect in the field to depositing samples in a repository. The session will highlight how CARE is operationalised in the planning phases before collection, with an example from the University of California Berkeley Gump South Pacific Research Center, a field station that is incorporating Local Contexts Notices and Labels into the application process for access. We will then move to the data curation end of the sample lifecycle and highlight recent successful implementations of Local Contexts notices and labels by Manaaki Whenua and other work being done by the repository community. We will continue an ongoing conversation about how to ethically engage with local Indigenous communities around sampling and how to describe those samples. We would like to identify additional partners from this session who are willing to be early adopters in implementing CARE Principles at their physical sample repositories and sample catalogues.  
     
    We aim to have the session as interactive as possible with a collaborative google doc prompts followed by guided discussions. The results will be disseminated on a blog post led by the FAIR Island Project and cross-posted by relevant groups.
