Good data and model management improves the longevity and impact of your interdisciplinary research. FAIRDOM offers software and expertise to support you in better managing your interdisciplinary life-science projects, particularly in systems and synthetic biology. If you have never heard of data and model management, or are curious about it, or you are an expert keen to exchange ideas, our user meeting is the place for you!

At our users meeting you can:

• Learn why data and model management is ...

Here we collect curated data to be integrated into public repositories

Data integration is an essential part of Systems Biology. Scientists need to combine different sources of information in order to model biological systems, and relate those models to available experimental data for validation. Currently, only a small fraction of the data and models produced during Systems Biology investigations are deposited for reuse by the community, and only a smaller fraction of that data is standards compliant, semantic content. By embedding semantic technologies into familiar ...

Research in Systems Biology involves integrating data and knowledge about the dynamic processes in biological systems in order to understand and model them. By connecting fields such as genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, mathematics, cell biology, genetics, mathematics, engineering and computer sciences, Systems Biology enables discovery of yet unknown principles underlying the functioning of living cells. At the same time, testable and predictive models of complex cellular pathways and ...

Metabolomics data a for Metabolight DB

Proteomics data for PRIDE, UniProt and others

Here you will find guidelines for creating MIAPE compliant proteomics data files as well as examples and links to online tools and resources

Here you will find guidelines for creating MAGE-TAB compliant transcriptomics data files as well as examples and links to online tools and resources.

These templates can be used for a selection of metabolomics data types. There is a MASTER template for general use and adaptation as well as several more specific templates for particular types of experiment (e.g. HPLC), or specific assay types (e.g glucose pulse)

Dear SEEK users, this Assay is just an example Excel sheet for intracellular metabolites concentration measurements performed using cell culture growing in chemostat

Some generic examples of transcriptomics templates that conform to the MAGE-TAB specification. These templates were created and modified from templates produced by ArrayExpress and GEO. These templates are generic and non-specific for any particular array platform.

Some examples of proteomics templates for Mass Spectrometry data that conform to the MIAPE specification

This Excel template is the general (master) template for any type of metabolomics data. It can be used as it is, or extended and modified to create a more specific templates for particular technologies and assay types.

Some examples of transcriptomics templates for Affymetrix data that conform to the MAGE-TAB specification. These templates were taken from the GEO website (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/info/spreadsheet.html) and modified to conform to the SysMO-JERM (Just enough Results Model) for transcriptomics. Using these templates will mean easier submission to GEO/ArrayExpress and greater consistency of data in SEEK.

A example of an RT-PCR Excel template. RT-PCR is Reverse Transcriptase PCR (NOT to be confused with Real Time PCR, which is normally referred to as qPCR)

This template was taken from the GEO website (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/info/spreadsheet.html) and modified to conform to the SysMO-JERM (Just enough Results Model) for transcriptomics. Using templates will mean easier submission to public databases on publication and greater consistency of data in SEEK.

This Excel template is an example taken from the GEO web site (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/info/spreadsheet.html#GAtemplates) which has been modified to conform to the SysMO JERM (Just Enough Results Model). Using templates helps with searching and comparing data as well as making it easier to submit data to public repositories for publications.

Some examples of transcriptomics templates for NimbleGen data that conform to the MAGE-TAB specification. These templates were taken from the GEO website (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/info/spreadsheet.html) and modified to conform to the SysMO-JERM (Just enough Results Model) for transcriptomics. Using templates will mean easier submission to GEO/ArrayExpress upon publication and greater consistency of data in SEEK for easier searching and comparing.

Examples of proteomics templates for gele electrophoresis data that conform to the MIAPE-GE specification

Here we present ENA-requirements compliant template and SOP for submission steps

The purpose of this is using it in ModelXChange.

Lecture 2: Being Reproducible: Models, Research Objects and R* Brouhaha Reproducibility is a R* minefield, depending on whether you are testing for robustness (rerun), defence (repeat), certification (replicate), comparison (reproduce) or transferring between researchers (reuse). Different forms of "R" make different demands on the completeness, depth and portability of research. Sharing is another minefield raising concerns of credit and protection from sharp practices. In practice the exchange, ...
