AI underperforms when data isn’t machine-actionable. This talk shows how FAIR + open standards turn fragmented R&D data into fuel for LLMs and analytics—via a mini-rubric, case studies, and a 90-day roadmap to lift AI-readiness.

Learning Objectives

Apply a mini-FAIR rubric to one dataset/document to diagnose AI-readiness and summarize 2–3 priority gaps; Recognize and select the appropriate standards—such as PIDs, metadata, controlled vocabularies, that best enable a target AI use case (e.g., RAG, model reuse); Recognize the key components of a 90-day plan—including roles, metrics, checkpoints—designed to elevate FAIR maturity and improve AI outcomes.
