New Repositories for New Biodiversity Research
2024-06-13 11:00 - 12:00 (Europe/Paris) | Online
Recent technology-driven advances in biodiversity research have created a need for more, new types of FAIR repositories. In this meetup, we discuss two of these. Firstly, the broad and expanding application of AI-based methods in image/sound/text/sequence classification has created a need for repositories for exchanging pre-trained models and their training data. Secondly, the advent of massively parallel DNA sequencing techniques applied to the environment has shown a large diversity of sequence variants, whose incremental aggregation in a central repository would enable a more fine-grained assessment of the presence and abundance of distinct haplotypes in the natural environment and in medical settings. In this event, we will introduce the current research practices and challenges and discuss how the community can proceed in light of these developments.
This virtual workshop will take place from 11:00-12:00 CEST on June 13 2024. The agenda will be added shortly.
Registration for this workshop is free but mandatory. Reserve your place by filing out the registration form below.

Strategies for training and knowledge exchange with a consulting perspective
2024-06-25 - 2024-06-26
BioNT – BIO Network for Training – is an international consortium of academic entities and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). BioNT is dedicated to providing a comprehensive training program and fostering a community for digital skills relevant to the biotechnology industry and biomedical sector. With a curriculum tailored for both beginners and advanced professionals, BioNT aims to equip individuals with the necessary expertise in handling, processing, and visualising biological data, as well as utilising computational biology tools. Leveraging the consortium’s strong background in digital literacy training and extensive network of collaborations, BioNT is poised to professionalise life sciences data management, processing, and analysis skills.
This hands-on workshop will introduce you to essential training theory, needs assessment techniques and effective delivery strategies in training and consulting, followed by an introduction to consulting with a focus on bioinformatics. You will explore the theory of learning, emphasising how people learn, followed by practical teaching techniques, learner-centred instruction, and creating an inclusive classroom environment. Its primary emphasis lies in hands-on teaching methods, constructive alignment, formative assessment, and providing valuable feedback to learners. Additionally, the workshop will highlight other knowledge-exchange formats, like consulting and mentoring, offering insights into the interface between industry and academia, and how bioinformaticians can leverage their skills in related roles.
BioNT offers a two-day workshop with the primary aim of introducing participants to good enough practices for teaching and consulting.
On the first day, participants will dive into the theory of learning, drawing upon The Carpentries material to provide a solid foundation. This includes an introduction to evidence-based teaching practices, equipping participants with strategies grounded in research to enhance their instructional effectiveness. The workshop also focuses on creating a positive environment for learners, offering practical guidance on fostering inclusivity and engagement during workshops. Furthermore, participants will have ample opportunities to practise and refine their teaching skills through hands-on activities and group discussions. This allows participants to gain valuable experience and confidence in their instructional delivery. In addition, the workshop will also cover training development and surveying training needs. Participants will learn how to assess the learning needs of their target audience and make informed decisions on training content and delivery methods. Exercises will be conducted to guide participants through the process of surveying training needs and developing collaborative training materials within the community.
On the second day of the workshop, we broaden the scope to include other forms of knowledge transfer, such as consulting and mentoring. Participants will dive deeper into how to communicate efficiently by focusing on refining their delivery style, tone, and pacing to optimise learner or consultee engagement and comprehension. Emphasis will be placed on integrating feedback to continually improve the learning experience and meet the diverse needs of learners and consultees. In addition, participants will explore strategies for effectively teaching technical knowledge using the proven BioNT training format, known for its structured and hands-on approach. Through practical examples and exercises, participants will learn how to break down complex technical concepts into digestible modules and facilitate active learning experiences.
On the second half-day, participants will engage with key questions related to consultancy in bioinformatics, including how to technically keep track of tasks and document projects, the frequency and criteria for follow-up, initiation of new projects, delegation decisions, managing multiple consultancy sessions, handling unreasonable requests, prioritisation between projects, time management strategies, prioritisation of consultancy over general training, division of time among different activities, and defining the threshold between consultancy and research involvement.

Maturity Model for Pathogen Data Platforms
2024-07-05 13:00 - 15:00
Maturity models are a useful tool to support data platform managers in assessing current gaps in their maturity and development lifecycle. The Pathogen Data Platform maturity model specifically targets managers of data platforms that host on pathogens, and associated, contextual sensitive, personal metadata. It was developed within ELIXIR-CONVERGE and tested in a pilot run within BY-COVID. It is very largely inspired from the maturity model of the Federated EGA.
During this highly interactive workshop, generally addressed to platform managers and those involved in platform development (bioinformaticians, ITs, legal services etc.), we will present practical illustrations of how to understand and score the various indicators of the maturity model, with examples focusing on SARS-CoV-2, bacterial, and wastewater data. We will also discuss the importance of ensuring FAIRness of platforms by design and how maturity models can support this.

How To Be Open: Libraries
2024-08-20 11:00 - 12:00

Shaping the Future of Cultural Heritage: “Connecting the Cultural Heritage Cloud with the common European data space for cultural heritage and the European Open Science Cloud”
2024-09-27 10:00 - 12:00
The Cultural Heritage Cloud – or European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage (ECCCH) – is a European Union initiative to create a digital infrastructure that will connect cultural heritage researchers and professionals across the EU. It will develop specific digital collaborative tools for the sector while removing barriers for smaller and remote institutions. The goal is to help cultural heritage institutions, research organisations and other professional organisations of all kinds and sizes to work with their digital objects in a more visible, interconnected, harmonised, and informed way, to successfully cope with the challenges the digital transition poses to the sector and seize its opportunities. The Cultural Heritage Cloud will add a new digital dimension to cultural heritage preservation, conservation, restoration and enhancement by providing cutting-edge technologies, for instance for the digitization of artefacts or for researching artworks. The implementation of this initiative has now begun with the EU-funded project ECHOES – European Cloud for Heritage OpEn Science, which started on the 1 of June 2024.
Two other initiatives are currently running at European level:

funded by the Digital Europe programme, the common European data space for cultural heritage is an EU flagship initiative to accelerate the digital transformation of the sector and foster creation, access and reuse of heritage data.
The vision for the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) is to put in place a system for researchers in Europe to store, share, process, analyse, and reuse data within and across disciplines and borders.

In this webinar, we’ll learn more about the Cloud and two other European initiatives, and how they are interconnected and complementary, how these initiatives interact with the Cloud, and what the added value of such connections is for the cultural heritage community.

CARE-Prinzipien
2024-10-02 10:00 - 11:30
Die FAIR-Prinzipien (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) sind mittlerweile die anerkannten Leitlinien im Umgang mit Forschungsdaten und legen den Fokus auf technische und organisatorische Aspekte wie die Annotation von Metadaten, die Veröffentlichung und Registrierung von DOIs sowie die Vergabe von Lizenzen für eine möglichst freie Nachnutzbarkeit. Die möglichst freie Verfügbarkeit und ein freier Datenaustausch sind die gesetzten Ziele.
Die CARE-Prinzipien (Collective Benefit, Authority to Control, Responsibility, Ethics) hingegen stehen für einen angemessenen Umgang mit Daten, die indigene Gemeinschaften betreffen, und sollen die FAIR-Prinzipien ergänzen. Im Gegensatz zu FAIR fokussiert sich CARE nicht auf die Erleichterung des Datenaustauschs, sondern auf die Wahrung der Interessen indigener Gemeinschaften, einer fairen Beteiligung an der Wertschöpfungskette und der Rückgabe von Kontrolle über Daten wie Bildern und Artefakten.

Collective Benefit zielt darauf ab, Daten indigener Gemeinschaften so zu verwenden, dass diese daraus Nutzen bei öffentlichen Entscheidungsprozessen, der Selbstbestimmung und der gerechten Realisierung von generierten Werten haben.
Authority to Control verfolgt das Ziel, die Rechte indigener Gemeinschaften an ihren Daten anzuerkennen und zu wahren. Das erstreckt sich über die Erhebung und Nutzung von Daten im Rahmen der Selbstbestimmung bis hin zur aktiven Kontrolle des Zugangs zu Daten indigenen Ursprungs.
Responsibility richtet sich an diejenigen, die mit Daten indigenen Ursprungs arbeiten. Diese müssen belegen, wie sie mit diesen Daten umgehen und welcher Nutzen für die indigene Gemeinschaft daraus entsteht. Die Nutzung indigener Daten verlangt dabei die Sicherstellung eines respekt- und würdevollen Umgangs mit den Daten. Gleichzeitig soll die Data Literacy indigener Gemeinschaften soweit ausgebaut werden, dass diese Daten eigenständig und im Einklang mit ihren Werten erstellen kann.
Der Ethics-Aspekt legt fest, dass die Rechte indigener Gemeinschaften und deren Wohlergehen gewahrt werden. Dazu zählt die Vermeidung von Schaden durch die Datennutzung, ein gerechter Umgang mit dem Ungleichgewicht von Macht und Ressourcen sowie die Berücksichtigung der zukünftigen Datennutzung.

Der Vortrag streift Fragen der Forschungsethik und stellt die CARE-Prinzipien sowie deren praktische Umsetzung vor. Dabei wird die Relevanz von CARE für Forschungsdaten über Daten indigenen Ursprung hinaus skizziert.

Movement for Indigenous Data Sovereignty: A Māori Decolonization Tool
2024-10-08 11:00 - 12:30
This talk will first outline which data can be described as “indigenous”
or “Māori data”, and to what extent sovereignty can be achieved for it.
In New Zealand, a movement has formed that advocates for this
sovereignty and thus promotes decolonial thinking. The Decolonize the
Library Network in German-speaking Countries invites you after the talk,
inspired by this practice, to discuss options for decolonial handling of
data in libraries.
Chris Cormack co-developed the open source library management system
Koho and works to increase the participation and representation of Māori
in the IT sector, siehe https://www.linkedin.com/in/chriscormack/.

EOSC EU Node technical launch event
2024-10-10 09:30 - 13:15
The European Commission’s Directorate-General for Research and Innovation (DG RTD) and Directorate-General for Communications Networks, Content and Technology (DG CNECT) are organising a technical launch event of the EOSC EU Node online on 10 October 2024 at 9.30 – 13.15 CEST.
Supporting the EU’s Policy of Open Science, the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) aims to give the EU a global lead in research data management and ensure that scientists in Europe enjoy the full benefits of data-driven science. To foster the development of EOSC, the European Commission has deployed into production the EOSC EU Node in the form of managed services provided by third-party contractors.
The online launch event will focus on a technical demonstration of the EOSC EU Node, provided by the contractors at first hand, who are also responsible for the operations, maintenance and support of the services.
A panel on the buildup of the EOSC Federation will reflect on the importance of this milestone, its impact on the future development of EOSC, on the buildup of the EOSC Federation and on the broader adoption of Open Science principles. The moderated panel discussion will feature representatives from the EOSC Association and its Board of Directors, EOSC Steering Board, the European Commission, the contractors providing the EOSC EU Node and the research community.

Forschungsdaten-Richtlinien in wissenschaftlichen Fachzeitschriften
2024-10-17 10:00 - 11:00
Wissenschaftliche Zeitschriftenverlage haben in den vergangenen Jahren begonnen, Richtlinien für den Umgang mit den einer Publikation zugrundeliegenden Forschungsdaten zu verfassen. Derartige Datenrichtlinien und Empfehlungen zum Umgang mit Forschungsdaten haben für Forschende zunehmend an Relevanz gewonnen, da sie im Rahmen des Forschungs- bzw. Publikationsprozesses berücksichtigt werden müssen. Um Forschende im Hinblick auf die Umsetzung der in den Datenrichtlinien formulierten Anforderungen beraten zu können, haben wir mehr als 80 internationale wissenschaftliche Fachzeitschriften ausgewertet. Diese Zeitschriften stellen die Top-Publikationsorgane der an der WU vertretenen sozial- und wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Forschungsschwerpunkte dar und werden zu Prämierungszwecken herangezogen. Die aus der Analyse gewonnen Erkenntnisse können dazu genutzt werden, Forschende im Rahmen unserer FDM-Beratungen bei Publikationsvorhaben zu unterstützen.
Zeit und Ort: 17. Oktober 2024, 10:00 – 11:00 Uhr, online via Webex
Zielgruppe:
Forschende in den Sozial- und Wirtschaftswissenschaften, Personal aus der Forschungsunterstützung
Sprache: Deutsch
