BioData.pt | ELIXIR Portugal, in collaboration with several other organizations has designed a program to train the first generation of Data Stewards for the life sciences, to support the implementation of data management, open science and FAIR data principles in Portuguese R&I organizations....
This training material has been used in a two-day training workshop on data management organized by Elixir and the Wheat Initiative.
It provides an overview of current practices and methods for plant phenotyping data standardization, and how to deal with the variability and heterogeneity...
"Ready For BioData Management?" is BioData.pt/ELIXIR-Portugal's capacity building program in data management for the life sciences.
Under this program, we have organized an intro-level workshop on data management plans, the material for which is available.
We are also organizing an advanced...
Slides used for teaching an introduction to phylogenies and MSAs in the context of phylogenies for the first day of a two-day course on MSAs at Cambridge University, in the UK, in December 2013. Course taught together with Holger Dinkel and Terri Attwood.
A presentation given as part of the Basic Evolution Workshop, a trans-African virtual training course (described in this BioEssays article PMID: 21312200; the course wiki is here http://molecevol10.wikispaces.com/). Introduces concepts of splits, consensus trees, consensus networks, describes...
