FAIR is…
Where to find them and examples of use The FAIR Data Principles (https://www.force11.org/group/fairgroup/fairprinciples) Seminal paper on them (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4792175) A step by step how-to on using FAIR, in this case how PHI-base used the principles to publish FAIR data: (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4922217/)
