Ricochet: Developing Standards around Biomedical Reproducibility

<p>Metadata standards for multiple data types and formats have existed for a number of years, yet similar metadata standards for reproducibility are only just developing. Reproducibility metadata standards seek to ensure not only that the data are properly described and linked, but all components of the research, including any code, software, workflows, and more, are richly annotated, and FAIR.</p> <p>This presentation will highlight the development of a reproducibility framework and software automation tool. The framework contains over one hundred metadata, initially selected and validated within the biomedical field. We will also describe and briefly demonstrate the software application that automates the detection of the framework variables, thus programmatically assessing the reproducibility of research within specific biomedical fields. Presenters will highlight future work on the reproducibility framework, new software extensions, and current adoption.
