WORKSHOP Metagenomics: bridging between environment and life

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Fri, 18 Dec 2015 10:58:51 +0000

Chair: Remo Sanges (EMBRC)

WORKSHOP Challenges in interoperability and semantic data integration - Lessons learned from BioMedBridges and OpenPhacts

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Mon, 02 Nov 2015 09:04:52 +0000

Co-chaired by Helen Parkinson (EMBL-EBI/ELIXIR) and Bryn Williams-Jones (Connected Discovery)

Interoperability and semantic data integration still present a challenge to the working bioinformatician and for large scale data integration projects. This session will explore the lessons learned from two large interoperability projects - the IMI funded OpenPhacts, and the EC funded BioMedBridges. We will look forward to a new tool set for semantic interoperability for CORBEL, and discuss priorities for the bioinformatics community.

WORKSHOP Interoperability of cellular phenotypic data derived from microscopy images

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Thu, 01 Oct 2015 10:23:56 +0000

Co-chairs: Gabriella Rusticy (University of Cambridge), Tanja Ninkovic (EMBL, ELIXIR)

WORKSHOP: New resources and tools to support the use of mouse data for the study of human diseases

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Fri, 14 Aug 2015 11:50:06 +0000

Co-chaired by Michael Raess and Philipp Gormanns (HMGU/Infrafrontier), and Helen Parkinson (EMBL-EBI/ELIXIR)

WORKSHOP Data Sharing for Advancing Health

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Wed, 12 Aug 2015 10:50:36 +0000

Co-chaired by Jan-Eric Litton, BBMRI-ERIC, Jacques Demotes, ECRIN, Christoph Steinbeck, PhenNoMeNal

The aim of this two-hour workshop is to point out the achievements and bridges towards harmonization and linkages between BMS research infrastructures.

WORKSHOP RD-Connect: an integrated platform connecting databases, registries and omics data for rare disease research

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Thu, 06 Aug 2015 11:53:16 +0000

Co-chaired by Sergi Beltran (CNAG, Barcelona), Marco Roos (LUMC, Leiden), and RD-Connect partners

Research into rare diseases is typically fragmented by data type and disease. Individual efforts often have poor interoperability and do not systematically connect data across clinical phenotype, genomic data, biomaterial availability, and research/trial data sets. Such data must be linked at both an individual-patient and whole cohort level to enable researchers to gain a complete view of their disease and patient population of interest.

WORKSHOP Unlocking low-resolution structural biology data

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Tue, 04 Aug 2015 09:01:03 +0000

Co-chaired by Martyn Winn (STFC; Instruct), Ardan Patwardhan (EBI; ELIXIR), et al.

This workshop will be of interest to researchers applying multiple structural techniques to particular biological systems, and to informaticians interested in the technical aspects of dealing with complex experimental data.

WORKSHOP Translational research infrastructure: submit, use, manage and combine imaging, clinical and molecular data

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Tue, 23 Jun 2015 12:52:00 +0000

Co-chaired by Stefan Klein (Euro‐BioImaging, Erasmus MC), Morris Swertz (BBMRI, UMCG), and Freek de Bruijn (EATRIS, VUmc and NKI)

WORKSHOP Security challenges and solutions for sharing sensitive data in an open data environment

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Mon, 15 Jun 2015 16:06:33 +0000

Co-chaired by Christian Ohmann and Wolfgang Kuchinke (ECRIN)

WORKSHOP Journal data policies and practices: practical considerations for researchers

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Thu, 21 May 2015 14:33:41 +0000

Co-chaired by Jo McEntyre (EMBL-EBI/ELIXIR) and Iain Hrynaszkiewicz (NPG Scientific Data)

WORKSHOP Challenges in international Ethics Review equivalency

ssuhr@ebi.ac.uk — Thu, 30 Apr 2015 15:41:05 +0000
