Open data in life sciences use cases?

Connotea Imports 2012-07-31

Summary:

"I [Iain Hrynaszkiewicz] am interested in further developing some specific use cases where open data (i.e. available under CC0 or equivalent terms) in journal publications would be useful or lack of open data has been problematic – to individual scientists/research groups, and perhaps even the original data publishers. I’m aware of reasonable evidence of societal/economic benefits for open data....E.g. “I am scientist doing X kind of experiment and being able to reuse or harvest all types of Y data from Z journal (or publisher) would be excellent because…” ...I’d like to include some of these use cases as part of a white paper, currently well under way, on implementation of a variable license agreement for open access publications enabling CC0 for data...If anyone has any suggestions they would be much appreciated – and of course acknowledged."
