BioMetaData Workshop: How to describe biological data?

07.06.2024 Workshop

Confused about FAIR, ontologies and metadata and how they can help you and your datasets? Begin with our hands-on workshop about description of biological data.

For our workshop: How to describe biological data? A primer to a FAIR approach for now and the future we are looking for:

  • Person with knowledge about microbiology
  • Late-stage (wet lab) researchers with datasets that are in preparation to be submitted to repositories
  • Early-stage researchers that will be generating huge datasets
  • Researchers having difficulties to apply existing ontologies and metadata fields to their dataset
  • Data stewards or broker responsible for submitting data

You will learn how to use terms based on existing ontologies and controlled vocabulary. Your engagement and continuous use of these terms will help to increase future machine-actionable analyses. After the workshop, you will have successfully described your own datasets and prepared the necessary metadata for future deposition of your described datasets.

But beware during this workshop, we will not…

  • upload or publish your data
  • analyze/ re-analyze your data
  • develop an ontology
  • set-up an automatic transfer of your metadata to repositories

Register by 20th of May.
