The PID4NFDI team invites you to participate in a collaborative initiative focused on the integration of Persistent Identifiers (PIDs) within DMPs and providing PID-related support.

We are establishing a dedicated focus group on this topic to collectively address important focus areas, including but not limited to: metadata quality and completeness; PID registration and integration into existing platforms; lifecycle integration challenges associated with PIDs; evaluation of existing and development of new training resources and best practice documentation; policy alignment, including meeting funder requirements.

We invite you and everyone interested from NFDI to participate in and contribute to the focus group, especially if you regularly work with DMPs and their integration in technical systems and infrastructure and/or issues of metadata in DMPs. Different backgrounds, perspectives and levels of expertise will be crucial and are very much welcome.

The initial meeting of the focus group will be held on April 1, 2025, 1:00 to 2:30 pm. (No april’s fools.) In the meeting, PID4NFDI will introduce our two-year plan in the Base4NFDI integration phase, and together we will define collaborative tasks and establish a clear action plan.

If you are interested in participating or should you have any questions or require further information, please contact us at pid4nfdi@lists.nfdi.de.
