Jun Adachi
(National Institute of Informatics)

A librarian, working at Kagoshima University Library. She is also a member of Planning and Coordinating Working Group of the Digital Repository Federation (DRF).

Ui Ikeuchi is a PhD candidate at University of Tsukuba. Her dissertation research focuses on ‘Research Data Management’. She had worked as a librarian at Ferris University from 1997 to 2005. M.A. in Library and Information Science (1997), Keio University. B.A. in Political Science (1995), Keio University.

Mark Hahnel is the founder of figshare. He is fresh out of academia, having justcompleted his PhD in stem cell biology at Imperial College London, havingpreviously studied genetics in both Newcastle and Leeds. He is passionate about open science and the potential it has to revolutionise the research community.

Jason Priem is a PhD student at UNC-Chapel Hill and co-founder of ImpactStory, an open-source altmetrics webapp supported by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. He coined the term altmetrics to describe the growing suite of research impact indicators based on online usage and discussion. Since then Jason has helped build the research field growing up around altmetrics, organizing the first two altmetrics workshops, as well as publishing and speaking widely on the topic. Jason has worked as a teacher, graphic designer, and programmer, and has contributed to several successful open-source software applications.

After the initiation of FANTOM(Functional Annotation of Mouse) project at RIKEN, I joined the MEXT Integrated Database Project at Database Center for Life Science(DBCLS), which was established in Research Organization of Information and Systems(ROIS). In DBCLS, we launched the project TogoTV(an archive of tutorial videos expounding how to use biological databases and tools), and now I am involved in the technology development of database integration.

Having worked as a library staff since 2002, and engaged in launch of the institutional repository system at Okayama University. Since 2013, joined Digital Repository Federation (DRF) WG of the planning and coordinating working group.

Kazuhiro Hayashi has been involved in scholarly publishing, in a wide variety of roles, for more than 15 years. At the Chemical Society of Japan (CSJ), he worked successively as Editor, Production Manager, E-journal Manager, and Promotions Manager. Throughout his broad range of roles in publishing he has focused on scholarly communication through E-journals, and he has used his IT skills to reconstruct and improve the way publishing is managed. In 2012 he moved from CSJ to the National Institute of Science and Technology Policy (NISTEP), where he is now engaged in a study to provide evidence to develop a Science and Technology policy for administrators and policy makers.

Research data sharing is more prevalent in the Natural and Social Sciences because it can be re-used and maximized transparency of the research. In addition, as many funding institutions and publishers mandate researchers to share their research data, it has necessarily been a part of the research lifecycle. However, as it is difficult for researchers to open their data owing to budget and time constraints, possible lack of skills or other reasons, it has prompted academic libraries to offer support services for Research Data Management. The speaker would like to make a presentation on the examples of the support services at the Digital Curation Center (DCC), University of Edinburgh, and University of Glasgow.

Mark will be talking about moving scholarly publishing beyond the traditional article. Scholars are increasingly sharing their raw data and not traditional research outputs through repositories such as figshare (http://figshare.com), which allows for the citation of datasets, posters, genetic sequences and other such files that traditional publishers struggle to accommodate. We are seeing the birth of an exponentially larger number of citations, crediting a much wider variety of outputs. The end is nigh for the measuring of impact using only citations to published papers: this is the age of the ‘reuse factor'.

In growing numbers, scholars are moving their workflows online. As that happens, important, once-invisible parts of the scientific process--conversations, arguments, recommendations, reads, bookmarks, and more--are leaving online traces. Mining these traces for "altmetrics" can give us better data describing scholarly impact. This impact data can help push scholarly communication forward, beyond open access to a more diverse, responsive publishing ecosystem. We'll discuss what this system may look like, taking a close look at exemplar applications like ImpactStory.

While the data from experiments by DNA microarrays and Next Generation DNA Sequencers(so called NGS) are so huge and it is thus hard for wet biologists to handle them, many biologists now try to make full use of public database. In DBCLS, we are developing the technology for the re-use of big data including DNA sequence from NGS and providing such information for wet biologists. I will show you the current status and the future of our project.

In Okayama University, We implement altmetrics service to our institutional repository system. This presentation will report the case of Okayama University, the problems on implementing it, and the possibility of development plans.
