Leave a note in the <a href="https://etherpad.mozilla.org/sciencelab-project-call-june25">etherpad</a>! So far, we'll be discussing some recent contributions including testing (supertest, nock, more), ORCID authentication, React and Habitat from <a href="http://twitter.com/heyaudy">Austin Davis-Richardson</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/wjrsimpson">Will Simpson</a>, <a href="http://twitter.com/rcpeters">Robert Peters</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/alicoding">Ali Al Dallal</a>.<br></p><p>This
<span class="">call</span> is for designers, developers, researchers, publishers and anyone
interested in participating or learning more about the <span class="">project</span>.
We could use all sorts of input on this (beyond just code), so if
you’re new to open source, come join us – we’d love to have you
involved.</p><p><br></p><div>Hope to see you there!<br><br></div><div>Abigail Cabunoc Mayes<br></div><div>Lead Developer, Mozilla Science Lab<br></div><div>@abbycabs / @acabunoc<br></div><p><br></p><p><br></p>------------------------------------<br><h2><font size="2">What are <span class="">Contributorship</span> <span class="">Badges for Science</span>?</font></h2>
<p>The <span class="">Contributorship</span> <span class="">Badges</span> <span class="">project</span> was <a href="http://www.mozillascience.org/contributorship-badges-a-new-project/" target="_blank">announced late last year</a>
as a collaboration testing out the use of <span class="">badges</span> as a standardized
digital credential for the work done by each author on an academic
article. Since then, we’ve starting building <a href="http://paperbadger.herokuapp.com/">a prototype</a> (PaperBadger) that uses <a href="http://openbadges.org/" target="_blank">Mozilla’s Open <span class="">Badges</span></a> infrastructure to store and issue <span class="">badges</span> to an author’s <a href="http://orcid.org/" target="_blank">ORCID</a> (a unique researcher identifier) based on their contribution to a paper published by <a href="http://www.biomedcentral.com/" target="_blank">BioMed Central</a> (BMC) or <a href="https://www.plos.org/" target="_blank">Public Library of Science</a> (PLoS). The <span class="">badges</span> awarded are based on the <a href="http://dictionary.casrai.org/Contributor_Roles" target="_blank">14-role author contribution ‘taxonomy’</a> being developed by the <a href="http://www.wellcome.ac.uk/index.htm" target="_blank">Wellcome Trust</a>, <a href="http://www.digital-science.com/" target="_blank">Digital Science</a> and others.</p>
The Mozilla Science Lab is leading development on this
prototype We're encouraging researchers to contribute code, design and
suggestions to experience being part of an open source <span class="">project</span>.</div><div><p></p></div></div></div>
