Over the past decade, before pursuing a particular line of research, scientists (including C.G.B.) in the haematology and oncology department at the biotechnology firm Amgen in Thousand Oaks, California, tried to confirm published findings related to that work. Fifty-three papers were deemed 'landmark' studies. It was acknowledged from the outset that some of the data might not hold up, because papers were deliberately selected that described something completely new, such as fresh approaches to targeting cancers or alternative clinical uses for existing therapeutics. Nevertheless, scientific findings were confirmed in only 6 (11%) cases. Even knowing the limitations of preclinical research, this was a shocking result.

6. (Re-)User applications: distributed applications run (autonomously?) on the set of exposed data objects.

Producing research objects

Concept modified from one developed by Anita de Waard, Ed Hovy, Phil Bourne, Gully Burns and Cartic Ramakrishnan

1. Research: Each object in the system has metadata (including provenance) and relations to other data objects added to it.

5. Publishing and distribution: When a document is published, a collection of validated research objects is exposed to the world. Document remains connected to its related data objects, and their provenance can be traced.

2. Workflow: All data objects used by or created in the lab are captured within a (lab-owned) workflow system.

4. Editing and review: Once the co-authors agree, the paper is ‘exposed’ to editors, who in turn expose it to reviewers. Reports are stored in the authoring/editing system, the paper gets updated, until it is validated.

3. Authoring: A communication is written in an authoring tool which can pull data objects with provenance from the workflow tool in the appropriate representation into the document.
