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.

Meeting objectives
The focus of the P20 Plenary session of the RDA Physical Samples and Collections in the Research Data Ecosystem Interest Group (PSACIRDE-IG) is to continue raising awareness of new projects on samples and related identifiers and discuss a new proposed initiative in for biospecimens in the Life Sciences.
The objectives of the session include:

Further developing the Catalogue of Groups/Projects working on samples and identifiers;

Provide updates on existing samples projects; and

Promote a new Group on Biospecimens in the Life Sciences with a view of becoming an RDA WG perhaps as part of the Samples IG.
