Taxonomic monographs are comprehensive treatments of organismal groups that include descriptions of the appearance of species, estimates of their geographical range, rationale for their delimitation, and details of their genealogical relationships and patterns of diversification. The critical baseline data on biodiversity included in taxonomic monographs can be used by biologists and non-experts alike. While other aspects of systematic biology research have embraced cutting-edge methodologies and analysis pipelines, many monographs are produced and published the same as they have been for decades. This project will support a series of workshops to engage the systematic biology community and identify strategies to reinvigorate and modernize taxonomic monographs. Four workshops will identify and incorporate innovations in computing, data visualization, and workflows to provide solutions to systemic and scientific challenges facing monographic research. The workshops will catalyze conversations and build collaborations that will strengthen and broaden the practice of monography. Invitations to participate in the workshops will be posted on the websites of professional societies with systematic biologist members, and participants will be selected with the goal of achieving breadth in expertise, career stage, gender and ethnic diversity. Products resulting from the workshops will be broadly and freely disseminated via scientific publications and websites.These workshops aim to realize the potential for taxonomic monographs to become central hubs that link and synthesize biodiversity information, with improved access to detailed phenotypic and geographic data, more dynamic, nuanced, and integrated taxonomies, and fully explicit, accessible, and testable hypotheses about organisms, their attributes, and their diversification. In addition to stimulating interactions among systematists who conduct monographic studies in diverse taxonomic groups and among systematists who work on questions that are or could be integrated into monographs, these workshops will engage the community of database scientists, computational biologist, software developers, and others to find novel solutions to the challenges of data access and integration. The workshops will culminate in a synthesis and consolidation of the ideas developed in the preceding workshops, aimed at building prototypes of tools, workflows, and structures that can be tested and improved by the broader community of systematic biologists. The technological and conceptual developments that will be integrated into monography will make the data of monographs more accessible and impactful across fields, and the interdisciplinarity that will be fostered by engaging database scientists, computational scientists, and software developers will support long-term and innovative solutions that capitalize on the integrative and comprehensive perspectives of taxonomic monographs.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

分类学专着是对有机体的全面处理，包括对物种外观的描述，其地理范围的估计，其定界的理由以及其家谱关系和多样化模式的细节。生物学家和非专家都可以使用有关分类专着中包含的生物多样性的关键基线数据。尽管系统生物学研究的其他方面已经采用了尖端的方法和分析管道，但许多专着的生产和发表与数十年相同。 该项目将支持一系列的研讨会，以吸引系统的生物学社区，并确定振兴和现代化分类学专着的策略。 四个研讨会将在计算，数据可视化和工作流程中识别并纳入创新，以提供有关专有研究面临的系统和科学挑战的解决方案。这些研讨会将催化对话并建立合作，以加强和扩大专着实践。参加研讨会的邀请将在与系统的生物学家成员的专业社会网站上发布，并将选出参与者，以实现专业知识，职业阶段，性别和种族多样性的广度。 讲习班产生的产品将通过科学出版物和网站广泛，自由传播。这些研讨会的目的是实现分类学专着成为链接和综合生物多样性信息的中心枢纽的潜力，并改善了对详细的表型和地理数据的访问， ，细微差别，综合分类法，以及关于生物，其属性及其多样化的完全明确，可访问和可检验的假设。除了刺激各种分类群体中进行专有研究的系统主义者之间的互动，以及在研究或可以融入专着的问题的系统主义者中，这些研讨会还将吸引数据库科学家，计算生物学家，软件开发人员和其他人的社区，以便找到有关数据访问和集成挑战的新颖解决方案。 讲习班将最终融合了前面研讨会中开发的思想的综合和巩固，旨在构建工具，工作流程和结构的原型，这些原型可以由更广泛的系统生物学家社区来测试和改进。将整合到专着的技术和概念发展将使专着的数据在整个领域更容易获得和影响力，并且通过吸引数据库科学家，计算科学家和软件开发人员将支持长期和创新的解决方案来促进的跨学科性。这将利用分类学专着的综合和全面观点。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准的评估来支持的。
