EVERSE Webinar: a Credit and Recognition Framework for RSEs and Trainers

Tuesday 28 Apr 2026, 15:00 → 17:00 Europe/Zurich

If you write code as part of your research to build software tools, workflows or training materials, chances are that these contributions might go unrecognised in traditional systems that typically focus on publications. 

This webinar introduces EVERSE’s Credit and Recognition Framework, an initiative aiming to make all types of research contributions visible and valued, taking into account the needs of the research community. 

During this session we’ll explore how we are building an ecosystem to make your impact visible by:

• Showing you how platforms like APICURON and BIP! Scholar can track contributions, such as pull request merges, and training sessions, and link them directly to your ORCID profile.

• Making sure your role in research — whether you’re a research software engineer (RSE) or a trainer — is properly acknowledged.

• Discover how you can contribute to and help shape the EVERSE recognition framework as an early adopter.

 

Join us to hear the latest community feedback, discover opportunities to get involved and take part in a hands-on session where we’ll guide you through creating accounts in BIP! Scholar and APICURON so you can start showcasing your research contributions!

All EVERSE events are governed by our Code of Conduct.
