Soiland-Reyes, Stian  PhD

Researcher with 224 publications in the last 18 years
Stian Soiland-Reyes is a Technical Architect and Research Associate at the eScience Lab in the Department of Computer Science. As a joint researcher and software developer he is working on reproducibility, provenance and metadata to improve FAIR sharing of open research data and computational workflows, within ELIXIR Europe, European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) projects including EOSC-Life and the workflow repository WorkflowHub.eu, as well as building FAIR approaches for high-performance compute (HPC) environments within BioExcel. Stian contributed to the W3C PROV standard and its implementation in workflow systems. As one of the early founders to the Research Object approach for sharing research outputs using Linked Data, he is now the co-lead of RO-Crate, a community-based lightweight approach to packaging and publishing research data with structured metadata. Stian is on the leadership team of Common Workflow Language, a standard for interoperable computational workflow, as well as on the technical steering committee for BioCompute Object, an approach for describing workflows for submission to regulatory authorities. He graduated in 2006 with an MSc in Computer Science from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). He has more than two decades of experience as an IT professional, including 15 years as a software developer working across academia and industry. He joined the myGrid team in 2005 (now eScience Lab), where he became the Technical Lead Developer of the successful, open-source scientific workflow management system Taverna, which he helped transition to the Apache Software Foundation incubator. As part of the EU FP7-funded Wf4Ever project, Stian contributed to the W3C PROV specifications for capturing provenance and co-developed the Research Object model and ontologies. Currently Stian is working for Horizon Europe projects BY-COVID, EuroScienceGateway, FAIR-IMPACT, BioDT, Biodiversity Genomics Europe and H2020 projects EOSC-Life and SYNTHESYS+. His focus is on metadata, workflows, scalability, reproducibility, provenance and scholarly communications, in particular related to RO-Crate. show More
