The document discusses the Resource Identification Initiative (RII) which aims to improve reproducibility in scientific research by promoting the use of Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs) in published literature. An experiment analyzing over 800 biological resources across multiple journals found that only about 50% were identifiable. The RII is developing standards and tools to integrate RRIDs into the publishing workflow so that resources are consistently and uniquely identified in a machine-readable way. This could help credit data contributions, enable data reanalysis, and improve reproducibility overall. A pilot project is underway to test the inclusion of RRIDs in publications.
