dkNET Webinar: Discover the Latest from dkNET - Biomed Resource Watch

The dkNET (NIDDK Information Network) team is announcing an exciting new service - Biomed Resource Watch (BRW, https://scicrunch.org/ResourceWatch), a knowledge base for aggregating and disseminating known problems and performance information about research resources such as antibodies, cell lines, and tools. We aggregate trustworthy information from authorized sources such as Cellosaurus, Antibody Registry, Human Protein Atlas, ENCODE, and many more. In addition, BRW includes antibody specificity text mining information extracted from the literature via natural language processing. BRW provides researchers and curators an easy-to-use interface to report their claims about a specific resource. Researchers can check information about a resource before planning their experiments via BRW-enhanced Resource Reports. This new service aims to help improve efficiency in selecting appropriate resources, enhancing scientific rigor and reproducibility, and promoting a FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) research resource ecosystem in the biomedical research community.

Join us on Friday, June 2, 2023, 11 am - 12 pm (PDT) for a webinar to introduce the following resources & topics:

  • An overview of dkNET 

  • How Resource Reports benefit you

  • Biomed Resource Watch

  • Navigating Biomed Resource Watch

  • How to Submit a Claim

Presenter: Jeffrey Grethe, PhD, dkNET Principal Investigator, University of California San Diego

NIDDK Data Management & Sharing (DMS) Webinar 3: Metadata and Data Standards for NIDDK Research Data

The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) is hosting a multipart NIDDK Data Management & Sharing (DMS) Webinar Series to conduct outreach to the NIDDK scientific community to provide education about data management and sharing. Session 3 of the webinar series tackles the topic of properly preparing study data for maximal use and reuse by the scientific community. The incorporation of data standards and well-described metadata allows researchers to share their data efficiently, but how do investigators start this process? What needs to be done early in the planning phase to facilitate the submission of data to a repository? How do repositories and projects use data standards and metadata to make data accessible to other investigators? This webinar provides information about metadata and data standards to support investigators as they implement NIH DMS policy and to enhance the findability and reuse of shared scientific data.
