proposal for a new community group note helping natural product drug interaction researchers

Dear HCLS-CG Community Group Members and Chairs,

While we are wrapping up the PDDI Min Info Model report, I wanted to propose another report project. This one would help a set of recommended  researchers whose work advances knowledge about natural product drug interactions (NPDI) make their data more FAIR. The context for this report would be to make the recommendations and requirements from a variety of sources more accessible to researchers who study natural product chemistry and NPDI pharmacology. It would re-package several recommendations from other sources while contributing some new recommendations that will arise from involvement of leading NPDI researchers.  It would distinguish recommendations that apply generally to all types of NPDI research from those that are specific to natural product chemistry and NPDI pharmacology. I would like to lead development of this note and have started a draft of it here:

https://dbmi-icode-01.dbmi.pitt.edu/dikb-evidence/hclscg-npdi-fair/


The context section clarifies the purpose of the note:

https://dbmi-icode-01.dbmi.pitt.edu/dikb-evidence/hclscg-npdi-fair/#context


I would like to follow the excellent writing example set by the W3C Recommendation "Data on the Web Best Practices" (https://www.w3.org/TR/dwbp/) that has a high level summary of the recommendations and then fills in a template for each recommendation. I have started some draft recommendations:

https://dbmi-icode-01.dbmi.pitt.edu/dikb-evidence/hclscg-npdi-fair/#rec-summary


Does anyone in the Community Group want to join this effort? Any objections to proceeding?

thanks for your time,

-Rich
