SoFAIR

The SoFAIR project, derived from Making Software FAIR, is dedicated to addressing a critical issue in research by interconnecting publications with the software they use, develop or share, improving the findability and accessibility of research software, two of the FAIR principles, originally designed for data. Awarded through the CHISTERA Open Research Data & Software Call. This collaborative initiative is geared towards elevating the discoverability and reusability of open research software, aligning with our commitment to advancing the accessibility of software source code artifacts. Leveraging the existing capabilities of open scholarly infrastructures operated by project partners, SoFAIR is a €499k international collaboration coordinated by (1) The Open University, in conjunction with (2) Inria, France; (3) Brno University of Technology, Czech Republic; (4) the Polish Academy of Sciences (PAN), Poland; and (5) The European Molecular Biology Laboratory’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), United Kingdom.
