Organiser: Extreme Light Infrastructure ERIC (ELI ERIC)

The 3rd Photon and Neutron (PaN) EOSC symposium of PaNOSC & ExPaNDS is meant to present the major results achieved in the frame of the two H2020 projects, toward making FAIR data a reality at PaN facilities in Europe. The core achievements towards an increased FAIRification of PaN data will be showcased to all stakeholders, such as scientists, PaN facility users and decision makers.

The two projects’ results include:  

1. The adoption of FAIR data policies to ensure data stewardship is FAIR, from the collection of processed data - together with accurate metadata, to publication and reuse.
2. The set-up of federated (meta)data catalogues and federated search API for data findability as a PaN Data Commons
3. An increased accessibility of datasets – from detector data to final publication – and open- source data analysis software, via a Persistent Identifier (PID) for data and instruments.
4. The adoption of a standard data format for higher interoperability.  
5. The setup, adoption and use of an integrated and interoperable virtual environment for analysing PaN datasets, which enables scientists to run pipelines for data analysis and simulation.
6. The setup of a training catalogue and e- learning platform with resources and courses on PaN science.  

The Extreme Light Infrastructure (ELI) is the world’s largest and most advanced high-power laser research infrastructure and a global technology and innovation leader in high-power, high-intensity, and short-pulsed laser systems. As the first international laser research infrastructure dedicated to science and research applications of ultra-intense and ultra-short laser pulses, ELI will provide high quality access to the international research community for prospective applications in medicine, radiography, fusion energy, environment, materials sciences, nanotechnologies, and biochemistry.  

The 2nd part of the event will include one panel discussion on EOSC Data Federation sustainability, involving all EOSC cluster projects and representatives of the task force on financial sustainability of the EOSC, and a closing panel discussion on the sustainability models which may be implemented for PaN data to be FAIR in the long run, with contributions from the LENS and LEAPS initiatives.
