CODATA, The Committee on Data for Science and Technology US National Committee for CODATA Update for National Committees Forum June 20, 2023 BONNIE C. CARROLL, CHAIR BONNIE C. CARROLL, CHAIR USNC/CODATA USNC/CODATA
CODATA, The Committee on Data for Science and Technology USNC in Context USNC in Context Sponsored by the US National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine Reconstituted June 2020, with a very long historical tradition Part of the Board on International Scientific Organizations With USNCs from Scientific Unions Sister organization to the Board on Research Data and Information (BRDI) Funded by the US National Science Foundation with 5 year grant ending in 2024 Initially meeting quarterly; 3 virtual and first in person held April 2023
CODATA, The Committee on Data for Science and Technology The Mission of the USNC The Mission of the USNC CODATA S MISSION IS TO CONNECT DATA AND PEOPLE TO ADVANCE SCIENCE AND IMPROVE OUR WORLD. CODATA PROMOTES GLOBAL COLLABORATION TO ADVANCE OPEN SCIENCE AND TO IMPROVE THE AVAILABILITY AND USABILITY OF DATA FOR ALL AREAS OF RESEARCH. THE MISSION OF THE USNC IS TO ADVANCE THE PROGRESS OF SCIENCE THROUGH EFFECTIVE DATA MANAGEMENT IN THE US AND IN COORDINATION WITH GLOBAL EFFORTS, CONSISTENT WITH THE CODATA MISSION. THE USNC WILL CONNECT THE DOTS WITHIN THE US AND AMONG THE US AND INTERNATIONAL GOALS AND ACTIVITIES.

CODATA, The Committee on Data for Science and Technology Activities Completed Activities Completed 1. Data Science Training for Underserved Communities in the US Overcoming Barriers to Data Science for Early Career STEM Professionals Rural areas (Appalachia/Rural South) Minority serving institutions Based on RDA/CODATA School of Data Science Funding from Microsoft Objective is to provide a hand up to underserved regions and formation of cohort community The program was modified to included weekly virtual for 4 weeks, in person for a week, and then 5 weeks virtual. Participants included 38 people from 16 institutions. 25 were totally active. 20 attended the in- person event. Completed November 3, 2022 2. Work with BRDI on mobilizing a focus on coordination of US Open Research Commons https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abo5947 Playing catch-up in building an open research commons As efforts a dance around the globe, the US falls behind PHILIPE.

CODATA, The Committee on Data for Science and Technology Ongoing Activities for 2023 Ongoing Activities for 2023 US National Data Summit Convene about 30-40 data organizations based in the US to discuss a Data Together like cooperation 3 Phases 1. 2. Survey of US Organizations to gather input on areas for cooperation completed Hold Focus Groups to further discussion priority topics in process 4 Cross cutting topics: Indigenous, JEDI, AI, Policy) 2 application areas (Data Needs for Decarbonization, Data for Disruption: Responding to Disasters and Shocks in Disadvantaged Communities) Convene US Research Data Summit in October 10-11, 2023 3.
CODATA, The Committee on Data for Science and Technology New Activities for 2023 New Activities for 2023- -24 24 Focus on the Next Generation Data Professional Data Science, Science of Data, Data Management need to develop common understanding Parallel Universes: Challenge for CODATA and the community There are at least two universes associated with data science and they seem to operate in parallel. This makes no sense to me. We are not talking about antimatter and matter, where contact would lead to annihilation. We are talking about two universes with a commonly shared matter (aka data) and energy (aka scientists). Let me explain. Submitted session for SciDataCon 2023 in cooperation with Academic Data Science Alliance Interest in connecting young professional communities
