We are a home for Earth science data and computing professionals. Our sessions bring together the community for hands-on, interdisciplinary deep dives as we explore "Bridging Divides: Data, Technology, Community" this year. Learn more about this theme on the ESIP Meetings page.

Session and plenary recordings will be published on the ESIP YouTube Channel.
Tuesday July 28, 2026 2:00pm - 3:30pm CDT
The ESIP Physical Sample Curation Cluster recently published a guide for scientific authors on 'Publishing Open Research Using Physical Samples.' This interactive session builds on that work to spur new discussion on advanced topics in open research using physical samples, with the goal of identifying places for further best practices development. Three 8-minute presentations will showcase key advanced topics, followed by ~40 minutes in breakout groups using large sticky note posters to document use cases and outline proposed guidance. The session closes with ~20 minutes of report-backs and discussion on next steps. Seeded discussion topics include CRediT taxonomy and samples, and field campaigns.

Audience
Researchers who use physical samples; curators of physical sample collections; infrastructure developers and data stewards who work on systems containing digital sample identifiers; ESIP community members with connections to scholarly journal infrastructure and DOI registries
