Are you curious about how France is shaping its national strategy for persistent identifiers (PIDs) to streamline data management and enhance research visibility? Do you want to understand how ORCID, the National Directory of Research Structures (RNeST), and the exploration of PIDs for research instruments work together to address challenges in traceability, interoperability, and administrative burden reduction?
In this presentation, you will explore:
• Why ORCID and RNeST are central to France’s strategy: Learn how these unique identifiers for researchers and institutions improve data reliability, automate system interoperability, and facilitate the implementation of FAIR principles.
• France’s initiative to map RNeST to ROR: Discover how France is enhancing the international visibility of its research structures by aligning RNeST with the Research Organization Registry (ROR), fostering global recognition and collaboration.
• Exploring the need for PIDs for research instruments: France is currently conducting a study to assess the requirements and potential benefits of implementing PIDs for research instruments. Learn about the objectives of this study, the challenges it aims to address, and how it could shape future PID adoption for instruments in France.
• How these initiatives align with international best practices: Gain insights into interoperability with European (EOSC) and global ecosystems, and how France is contributing to harmonizing PID usage while preserving institutional autonomy.
