Knowledge Graphs and Semantic Computing Speaker Series: Anita Bandrowski

Anita Bandrowski

Anita Bandrowski, a researcher in the department of neuroscience at UCSD, a visiting professor at the QUEST center at the Berlin Institute of Health, and the CEO of a technology startup called SciCrunch Inc., will present "Can research resource identifiers (RRIDs) be used to better understand the scientific literature?"

Dr. Bandrowski is a researcher in the department of neuroscience at UCSD, a visiting professor at the QUEST center at the Berlin Institute of Health, and the CEO of a technology startup called SciCrunch Inc. She started and runs the Research Resource Identification Initiative, asking authors to put persistent unique identifiers, RRIDs for tools they used in their paper, into their publications as a way to improve parts of reproducibility in science. She is passionate about fixing bits of the reproducibility crisis in science that can be engineered out of existence!
