How to work with your Data

Practical informations and materials for the interactive workshop at SEB 2023 Edinburgh

Dates

• 5th July 2023, 9-12

Requirements

This is an interactive workshop with hands on exercises, so you should bring your laptop with you.

We will be using a collaborative notepad at: https://pad.carpentries.org/SEB-WORK-WITH-DATA-2023-07-05

Content

The way we disseminate scientific results is changing to include Open Science and Findable Accessible Interoperable Reusable (FAIR) principles. Well-organised data (and code) is not just the best preparation for this, it can also increase productivity. With the introduction of Narrative CVs, both your research and you can be recognised for these new research outputs. We aim to show how you can make the most of these changes by thinking ahead about your data.

In this interactive, two-parts session, we will teach:

• the benefits of Open Science
• the principles of FAIR data and what they mean in practice
• what the metadata is and how to describe your data to make them re-usable
• how to organize your data in files and tables
• what resources are available to assist in data management

This workshop is aimed at all active researchers in biomedical sciences: PhD students, postdocs, technicians and even PIs.
