supporting the agri-food community

agINFRA is aiming towards a community-specific

reference point for research institutions carrying out

work with funding from the H2020 framework

programme:

domain-specific support on implementation of Open

Access requirements, Data Management Plans, etc

helps publishing & linking research outcomes from

H2020 projects (esp. publications, research data sets)

serves as a hub for disseminating research outcomes

to EU and global e-infrastructures (i.e. OpenAIRE, AGRIS)

Possible difficulties for COST Action

Policy

mappings to possible difficulties (1/5)

Difficulty in discovering, tracking and

monitoring the research publications that

Saffron-OMICS partners have published with

project affiliation

Difficulty in discovering early enough the

research publications that Saffron-OMICS

partners are working on (draft versions of the

research publications)15-mai-15

mappings to possible difficulties (2/5)

Difficulty in manually updating the Saffron-

OMICS Cost Action website with the project

research outcomes (e.g. researchers’

publications)

Lack of time to set up and update the Saffron-

OMICS project website, present the project

progress, the partners’ and researchers’

profiles and the research outcomes15-mai-15

mappings to possible difficulties (3/5)

Lack of time to prepare simple, practical and

customized guidelines for the Saffron-OMICS

partners and researchers on how to make the

publications compliant to the Open Access

policy

Lack of expertise in research team to support

the requirement of depositing publications

(& research data sets) in an institutional

repository and/or a thematic aggregator (i.e. 15-mai-15

mappings to possible difficulties (4/5)

Difficulty in connecting the Saffron-OMICS

project website with other repositories and

websites of the institute for the dissemination of

the research activities of the team

Lack of time to discover all appropriate

dissemination channels for Saffron-OMICS

project partners’ publications, data sets,

activities or other outcomes (for your thematic

area)15-mai-15

potential solutions for the

community (1/2)

… to store the data & scientific publications and to share the

Action outcomes with the partners

… to search and to find publications based on the

researchers' names of the Action

… to search and to find all the relevant publications according

to the Action's title

… to have a functionality for Action partners to be updated

when the rest of the partners start working on a publication or an experiment

potential solutions for the

community (2/2)

… to discover if the partners work on a publication or

experiment by looking in social media (blog, Slideshare,

Twitter, Facebook)

… to discover automatically if the rest of the partners have

presented or published something through their Slideshare

profile

… to be automatically connected with the partners' external

institutional or research group repositories

… to have an auto dissemination of the Action outcomes to all

relevant channels

… to include a dynamic updated list of your Action research
