⚡Take a 90 second tour through #ORKGreborn, an open-source digital library linking scientific statements with the data, code, & analyses used to produce them. So many potential benefits for science & society—I'll let the video speak for itself. @fair2adapt-eosc-eu.bsky.social @stockerm.bsky.social

Fantastic work led by my colleague @hghi.bsky.social! Hadi's paper introduces an open-source digital library for #machine-readable scientific knowledge. The goal: enhance the reusability & reproducibility of #science. Want to see your work there? Email us at reborn@orkg.org

Dance Your PhD 2025: Rethinking the Production of Research Findings This video is a submission for the special AI/quantum category of the 2025 “Dance your PhD” competition run by AAAS and Science: bit.ly/4c8Ricx Despite significant advances in digital technologies, modern scientific results are still communicated using antiquated methods. Since the first scientific article published in 1665, we have managed the switch from physically printed articles to PDFs, but these electronic documents are still text-based and not machine-readable. This means your computer cannot interpret the information they contain without some level of human assistance (e.g., detailed prompts, large amounts of training data). With millions of scientific articles published annually, researchers and other data users stand to benefit greatly from approaches that enable machine-assisted information organization and reuse. In this video, we explore the limitations of text-based PDF articles from a machine’s perspective and demonstrate how using knowledge bases that structure scientific information in a machine-readable format can address some of these challenges. Using color to represent different kinds of scientific information (think figures, tables, and statistical analyses), we look at a machine’s ability to interpret information in a text-based format compared to a machine-readable format. We use Zumba®, which uses structured dance sequences to create easy-to-learn choreographies, to represent the inherently structured nature of much scientific information, which is easily lost in PDFs. This video is inspired by research conducted at the Lab Knowledge Infrastructures led by Dr. Markus Stocker at the TIB – Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology in Germany. The video was produced by Lauren Snyder, a postdoctoral researcher in the lab and a licensed Zumba® instructor. We would like to extend a very special thank you to Zumba® for their permission to use and perform their original song, Guadalajara (PPL-/PPCA-free music). We are also very grateful to ZJ™ Rony Gratereaut for the Zumba® choreography that we adapted for this video.
