Springer Nature & Figshare: driving open science through data sharing

Researchers are increasingly encouraged to share data supporting their publications. The case for Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) data is reflected in a growing number of policies and initiatives to make this achievable while supporting data integrity and openness. In this panel discussion, members from across Springer Nature’s research data management, editorial, and community teams come together to discuss how Springer Nature is supporting authors in open science practices through data availability as well as reproducibility, quality and integrity.

Tips for sharing NIH-funded research on figshare.com

Figshare.com is Figshare’s free, generalist repository platform available for researchers to use to store, share, and cite their research outputs. In this webinar, Figshare’s Head of Data Review, Ana Van Gulick, will show how researchers can share their NIH-funded research on figshare.com including best practices for data quality and creating links between data and related funding information and papers for better discoverability.

How Figshare integrates with and augments Research Information Management Systems

In this webinar we will demonstrate why a Figshare repository multiplies the effectiveness of a CRIS/RIMS and provide examples of integrations. We will also cover how the openly documented Figshare API enables integration with almost any research information reporting workflow or system.

Effective Research Management

In this webinar, we will cover how using Symplectic Elements as a research information management system, integrated with Figshare for Institutions as a research repository, drives a holistic approach to research management. Together, Elements and Figshare provide a complete solution for collecting, storing, showcasing and reporting on all research outputs and scholarly activities, with a focus on open access compliance and engagement.

The role of funders in publishing and sharing research data, publications, and conference materials

In this webinar, hear from Figshare Founder and CEO Mark Hahnel on what significant role funders play in enabling their researchers — intramural and extramural — to make their research outputs citable, shareable, and discoverable.

Reporting and statistics in Figshare

Reporting on a repository’s contents and reuse is an essential component for assessing impact and value of the repository on the institution as a whole. This webinar will outline multiple ways to gather statistics that can be shared with researchers and administrators.
