The award funds the development of Resource Watch, a knowledge base to improve identification and tracking of biomedical research resources using RRIDs, enhancing reproducibility in research.
Description
This project aims to develop and sustain an integrated knowledge base of key research resources, including antibodies, cell lines, organisms, and digital assets, indexed by Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs), to encourage their use and improve reproducibility in biomedical research. The project emphasizes the development of a knowledge base called Resource Watch to enhance information about RRIDs and involves collaboration with journals, registries, and stock centers. It is part of NIH-funded initiatives and aims to unify the current RRID project into a self-supporting entity.
