    dct:description "<span><p>Making research data genuinely FAIR remains a practical challenge: metadata is often siloed, provenance is implicit, and datasets are rarely citable or machine-actionable in a granular way. Nanopublications offer a structural solution: data published as nanopublications is FAIR by default. This presentation shows how research data professionals can adopt them today.</p><p>A nanopublication is a minimal, self-contained, citable unit of knowledge expressed in RDF. It packages one or more assertions together with provenance and publication metadata, making it FAIR by design: each unit receives a persistent identifier, carries machine-readable provenance, and is built on open web standards (RDF, SPARQL, ontologies). Once published, nanopublications enter a decentralised P2P network of servers that can be queried collectively as a global knowledge graph, with no single point of control or failure, and no central repository to negotiate access with.</p><p>For data stewards and research data support professionals, this presents concrete opportunities: enriching dataset documentation with granular, traceable claims; publishing data quality annotations or controlled vocabulary decisions as citable, interoperable assertions; or contributing institutional data to open scholarly knowledge graphs. Third-party plugins and widgets already allow nanopublications to be explored and displayed within existing platforms, meaning institutions can start without changing their current infrastructure.</p><p>The presentation walks through the core concepts, demonstrates the main tools, and shows how research data, such as metadata records, provenance statements, and data quality annotations, can be published and consumed as nanopublications, with FAIR compliance built in from the ground up.</p></span>";
