‍SciLake will be at the Open Science Fair (OS FAIR) 2023. Our members will participate in the workshop "Open Science Knowledge Graphs (SKGs): Transforming the Way we Manage, Explore, and Analyze Scientific Knowledge", presenting the mission of building a comprehensive scholarly communication graph and the proposed technical solutions. It will be an excellent opportunity to explore potential areas of cooperation and common goals with ESFRI's research communities and hear about their ongoing work to create and maintain domain-specific SKGs and their current challenges.
