Hi All -

Please join the Sampling Nature RCN on Friday, July 7 at 1pm ET for our

The abstract and Sara's bio are below.

Please share with your networks and I hope to see you there!
Best,

Abstract: Archives that provide access to high-quality research data offer
an ideal setting to study the community impact of data sharing. In this
talk, I will describe an analysis of the data citation network available
through ICPSR – a social science data archive at the University of Michigan
– which reflects patterns of data reuse in academic literature in research
communities that use the same scientific datasets. These communities are
characterized as disciplinary “subdivisions” or integrative “crossroads”
that connect research areas. I show how data citation allows us to
understand scholarly communication processes, such as the organization of
scientific communities, and will discuss implications for the citation of
samples.

Bio: Sara Lafia is a Research Fellow in the Inter-university Consortium for
Political and Social Research (ICPSR) at the University of Michigan. Her
research is supported by an NSF project, Developing Evidence-based Data
Sharing and Archiving Policies, in which she analyzes curation activities,
trains models to detect informal data citations in academic literature, and
develops metrics to track the impact of data curation. She holds a Ph.D. in
Geography from UC Santa Barbara.
