Workshop: FAIR Data Infrastructures for Biomedical Communities

This workshop will be organized by the GMDS project group "FAIRe Dateninfrastrukturen für die Biomedizinische Informatik", established in early 2019. The aim of this project group is to present the activities in various projects and at different German research locations with regard to infrastructures for FAIRes (Finadable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data management. To this end, a joint exchange of experience will take place in order to plan joint concepts (e.g. dissemination of FAIR, coordination of developments, standards and guidelines, etc.) in the field of biomedical informatics and the underlying data and to develop implementation strategies. This workshop aims to present the GMDS project group as well as data infrastructure approaches and corresponding initiatives and their platforms for biomedical basic and translational research, which are based on the FAIR principles for scientific data management. The participants of the workshop will discuss the requirements for such infrastructures. Subsequently, joint strategic approaches for FAIRes data management will be outlined as a basis for the further work of the project group. The target group of the workshop includes infrastructure providers who develop and operate FAIRe tools and platforms for biomedical research, representatives of the relevant specialist communities and research networks who use or wish to use FAIRe data infrastructures, as well as all other interested parties interested in the improvement and better dissemination of FAIRe data management strategies.
