D9.2.3 Dissemination Report
1 Exploitation and Dissemination
1.1 Exploitation and Dissemination Objectives
The primary goal of the dissemination during the third project year has been the usage of the project's pilots and services via the OpenScienceLink platform (http://opensciencelink.org/), and the promotion of the Biomedical Data Journal (http://www.biomed-data.eu/) in an effort to maximize its impact and make it known to the community.
Towards these two directions, the main activities conducted within the third year of the project are:
1. Implement commercial and non-commercial cases for exploitation of the OpenScienceLink solutions, via meetings with major stakeholders, and,
2. Identify and implement improvements to the OpenScienceLink tools and services to sustain the competitiveness of the offered pilots.
The dissemination activities of the OpenScienceLink project aimed at:
boosting the user pool of the OpenScienceLink platform and maximizing the community size that the Biomedical Data Journal addresses;
attracting interest and raising the awareness of the participating organisations to use, promote and further improve OpenScienceLink project tools and services.
Hence, the dissemination of the OpenScienceLink project was performed at two parallel and complementary levels:
Internally in the consortium organisations, i.e., through ensuring that all consortium participants use the OpenScienceLink services.
Externally through attracting and engaging third parties in the use of the OpenScienceLink services. Such an engagement is also part of the project’s business plans, including plans for the wider implementation and use of the OpenScienceLink platform and services, and have been analytically described in the sustainability plans of the project (Andronikou, et al., 2014).
1.2 Project's Web Site
The official project's Web site (http://opensciencelink.eu/) played an important role to the dissemination of the project’s results. The project’s deliverables, press releases and scientific publications were kept up to date, and news about platform updates and the Biomedical Data Journal have been announced via the website. The Web site is also connected with the respective Twitter account of the project, and allows the visitors to subscribe in order to receive news from the project.
The project’s website integrates a tool that provides analytical statistics regarding the visits it receives. This enables the consortium to monitor the interest shown to the platform itself as a result of the dissemination activities undertaken. According to it, the yearly reports since the beginning of the project in 2013 until January 2016 are the following:
Year Number of visits
2013 991
2014 29,230
2015 (January 2016 inclusive) 48,941
Table 1: Statistics of project’s Web site visits since 2013.

D9.2.3 Dissemination Report
In total, over the third year of the project the Web site had 41,005 unique visitors. Summarising, the number of visits, as well as of unique visitors on the project’s web site since February 2015 is depicted in the following, where it is shown that the OpenScienceLink project has attracted a big interest of the community over time:
Figure 1: Number of visits and unique visitors on opencsiencelink.eu for the third year of the project.
Additionally, integrated to the projects website, is the OpenScienceLink’s Twitter account, through which the news regarding the progress of the platform’s development have been published. As of January 31, 2016, the account has drawn the attention of 135 followers. Interestingly, the platform has managed to gain the attention of twitter users with interests that span across science, technology, biology and bioscience but also business. The following plot, presents the distribution of the interests of the project’s followers on Twitter. The top categories include science news, technology news and technology in general, biology, and business.

1.3 Platform Releases
During the third year of the project, two new major releases of the platform were conducted. The first took place on the 30th of July 2015, and included two new main features: (1) Pilots 1 and 2 were updated, and the authors could, in addition to the previous releases, revise their submissions as many times as needed, upload “camera-ready” versions of articles both as source documents and as pdfs, and the system could retain always the latest official submission, the one before that for purposes of comparison, and the original submission as well. These new features were all part of updated requirements, where the experts asked to be able to have a wider view and control of the submission process and lifetime of an article; (2) Pilot 3 was updated and the platform implemented all of the pending requirements for this pilot, e.g., trends per field, detailed trends analysis, and term extraction for new terms per domain. The second major release took place on the 27th of November, where the major change has been the addition of the feature that allows commentaries on reviewed and published articles by the users of the platform. Besides these two main releases, intermediate releases also took place, correcting existing errors, and improving minor features in the overall platform. These were made at the 24th of August 2015, and on the 7th of October 2015.
1.4 Biomedical Data Journal
The Biomedical Data Journal (BMDJ) is an open access journal that has been launched by the OpenScienceLink consortium (first issue online as of January 2015), aiming to facilitate the presentation, validation, use, and re-use of datasets, with focus on publishing biomedical datasets that can serve as a source for simulation and computational modelling of diseases and biological processes. Computational modelling can bridge the gap between experiments and patients by integrating data obtained from experimental cell and animal based models to patients. Datasets availability is critical for training, optimization and validation of ‘integrative’ mathematical models based on experimental (cell and animal datasets) and clinical observations (human datasets). The editorial board has been finalised into the following body:

In January 2015, the first pilot issue was launched through the journal’s website, available in http://biomed-data.eu . This pilot issue presents the rationale for launching a data journal in the biomedical field and the foundations of our editorial policy, the policy of the European Commission on open-access to scientific publications and research data in Horizon 2020, and the use of datasets as a basis for computational modelling of diseases, with focus on cancer. The second group of papers analyse the need for open access, structured data of assured quality in the fields of clinical brain research, endocrine research, cardiology research, and drug discovery. The final section looks at two specific aspects: the legal challenges of publishing open-access biomedical data and the information infrastructure, supporting the formulation of the journal policy, the publication process, and impact assessment.
During December 2015, the second issue of the first volume of the BMDJ was prepared, which included the following articles:

1.5 Connecting with Libraries and Library Users Across Europe
During the last year of the project, a connection with library users was established to the OpenScienceLink platform. In Dresden, the main library contact has been SLUB (the library of TUD). Via this collaboration, the training of the machine learning model for the evaluation of the OpenScore, which is now an implemented feature of the OpenScienceLink platform, was made feasible. In addition, SLUB has copies of the BMDJ and indexes the BMDJ journal.
Furthermore, PROCON contacted a set of relevant dissemination outlets for the OpenScienceLink project, among which: the Central Medical Library of the Medical University, Sofia; SS. Cyril and Methodious National Library, Sofia; University Library of the Sofia University “St. Kliment Ohridski”; and the National Library Information System.
1.6 Press Releases
The consortium circulated two updated press releases in English for the second issue of the Biomedical Data Journal and the updated features of the OpenScienceLink platform, each of them targeting towards reaching two different audiences: one focusing towards researchers and academics, and one towards journal stakeholders.
Page 16 of 25
D9.2.3 Dissemination Report
1.7 Maximizing Users’ Pool
In addition to the aforementioned, other activities also took place to augment the pool of the pilot users. Meetings with medical faculty postgraduate students and researchers of several universities across Europe were organized, and a number of influential organisations in the biomedical domain, as well as distinguished scientists were individually contacted and informed about the OpenScienceLink platform and the Biomedical Data Journal by consortium members. The details of these meetings and contacts can be found at the Table of Section 2, which summarizes all of the dissemination activities.
With regards to making the platform more attractive for a wider scientific and stakeholder’s audience, the consortium also focused in indexing datasets in the OpenScienceLink platform, with the aim to become one of the biggest hubs globally for searching datasets. During the final year of the project, an additional ~ 10,000 publicly available datasets were indexed via the ArrayExpress microarray repository of gene expression data. By the time of this writing it contains ~65,000 experiments and ~1,700,000 assays, summing to ~18 TB of data. These data are maintained and distributed originally by the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI).

Table 3: Summary of dissemination activities of the OpenScienceLink project for Year 3.
D9.2.3 Dissemination Report
3 Conclusions Overall, the OpenScienceLink dissemination activities during the final project year focused in the dissemination and exploitation in the scientific world, and exploitation targeting major publishing and R&D stakeholders (e.g., Elsevier, IBM Research, SAP) with an eye to the open access industry and market. Several presentations and publications were made to disseminate the project’s results, and many meetings with major stakeholders were conducted, from which the feedback was very positive, and there are several perspectives that have been opened and are examined. Overall, the consortium members in this third year investigated concrete ways of collaborating with these stakeholders actively for the sustainability of the project’s results in the meta-project era and mobilized fully all of the available resources that had been allocated for these activities.
