[Recorded Webinar And Slides Are Available Now!] Join dkNET Webinar - FAIR Data Require Better Metadata: The Case for CEDAR

When a biomedical scientist needs to upload her data and enter corresponding metadata into a repository, she is faced with a formidable task. Not only does she need to navigate and fill out many forms to enter (and re-enter!) information, and make sure everything is cross-referenced correctly, but the metadata frequently end up stored in an ad hoc manner, in a non-standard format, and using non-standard terminology. As a result, finding or reusing the metadata, or understanding the underlying experiments, becomes extremely hard, if not impossible. But when the scientist uses CEDAR, the tools can make describing laboratory studies or metadata for any other biomedical content much easier. Come join us for a webinar presented by Dr. Mark Musen on Friday, November 13, 2020 to learn more about this useful tool!
