FAIRDOM

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

Experimental study for hands on session

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)

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.

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

Here we will use JERM templates with embedded ontologies to describe and annotate example data

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.

Talk given by Olga Krebs at FAIRDOM-LiSyM-de.NBI Data Structuring Course - Nov 22-23 in Hünfeld (D)

This document helps Horizon 2020 beneficiaries make their research data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR), to ensure it is soundly managed. Good research data management is not a goal in itself, but rather the key conduit leading to knowledge discovery and innovation, and to subsequent data and knowledge integration and reuse. Note that these guidelines do not apply to their full extent to actions funded by the ERC. For information and guidance concerning Open Access and the

Talk given by Tomasz Zieliński

Presented by Martin Böhm, German Cancer Research Center, Heidelberg, Germany

Talk by Jacky Snoep, Stellenbosch University, SA

The presentation was given during the PALs meeting in Munich on Dec. 10th, 2015
It talks about openBIS, an open, distributed system for managing biological information.
The main goal of openBIS is to support biological research data workflows from the source (i.e. the measurement instruments) to data processing and analyzing facilities.

The 10th Young Scientists School “Systems biology and Bioinformatics” SBB-2018 will be held on 27–31th of August 2018 in Novosibirsk, Russia
Bioinformatics is a rapidly developing field of knowledge. Each of the past Young Scientists Schools concerned topics urgent at those times. To preserve this tradition, the SBB-2016 will be dedicated to bioinformatics and systems biology in such areas as:
Genomics and evolutionary bioinformatics
Structural biology and molecular dynamics
Molecular-genetic
...

Participants will learn how to structure and share complex data in a Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR) manner. Hands-on sessions, lectures and software demonstrations will provide attendees with the necessary skills to apply components of the FAIRDOM infrastructure in their daily work for interrelating and exchanging data, models and corresponding information.

FAIRDOM is a research infrastructure offering data management support. The SEEK software is designed as registry and
