Episode description
Alice Meadows has been working in community engagement with research infrastructure for many years now, with leadership roles at both ORCiD and NISO. Most recently, Alice co-founded the MoreBrains Cooperative, a consultancy that helps research stakeholders better understand how to build solutions that centre around the research community and respond to its varied and ever-changing needs.
In this chat, Alice tells Suze about research infrastructure, persistent identifiers (PIDs), why metadata matters, and what she would like to see from the future of information management in the research community, ahead of the first-ever PIDFest, a conference that focuses on persistent identifiers for research information and infrastructure, which took place at the National Library of Technology in Prague, Czechia in June 2024.
