Hello, Would anyone interested please take a look at our draft Semantic Web in Health Care and Life Sciences Community Group Report titled "How to Make Natural Product – Drug Interaction Study Data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable And Reusable (FAIR)": https://w3id.org/hclscg/npdi The abstract of this Report is copied below. The report is a the results of a volunteer multidisciplinary task force. We feel that this is very close to being ready to publish. Feel free to email feedback to this list or post issues on the project's github: https://github.com/w3c/hcls-natural-product-drug-interaction-fair/ Abstract: Concomitant use of therapeutic drugs and natural products, including vitamins, minerals, herbal medicinal products, and other botanicals, is a frequent occurrence. Concomitant exposure of natural products with approved pharmaceutical therapies raises concerns of possible natural product-drug interactions (NPDIs) that could lead to patient harm. Research on NPDIs includes studies that characterize natural product chemical constituents, elucidate pharmacologic mechanisms, and identify potential clinical impact of NPDI exposure. The different kinds of datasets that arise from these various kinds of studies range from mass spectrometric to in vitro and in vivo pharmacokinetics. There is a growing recognition by both researchers and agencies that fund research that NPDI study datasets should be more findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR). The purpose of this Community Group Report is to propose a set of recommended approaches to help NPDI researchers make their data more FAIR. This report provides FAIR data recommendations organized into general and research-specific categories. The recommendations are written in manner intended to help researchers quickly identify and adopt those FAIR data practices most relevant to their research.
