Data Standards & Repositories Qiita MGnify & FAIR — Hands-on

Learn how to make microbiome and metagenomics projects findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. You will work conceptually with MIxS style metadata, repository data models and validation thinking so that your studies are ready for submission to Qiita, MGnify and related archives using reusable templates and documentation patterns.

Microbiome Metadata & Standards Foundations

FAIR principles in the microbiome context

findable and accessible data thinking interoperability and reuse mindset planning for reuse from day zero

Microbiome metadata standards overview

sample, sequencing and environment fields mandatory vs optional information ideas controlled terms and ontologies mindset

Project level documentation and identifiers thinking

study titles, abstracts and keywords persistent identifiers conceptually versioning and change tracking mindset

Session 2

Fee: Rs 11800

Repositories: Qiita, MGnify & Companion Portals

Repository roles in the microbiome ecosystem

archival vs analysis oriented portals raw reads vs processed profiles links to primary sequence archives

Conceptual data models in Qiita and MGnify style portals

studies, samples and runs thinking analysis objects and pipelines view public vs controlled access notions

Matching project types to repository expectations

amplicon vs shotgun projects clinical vs environmental cohorts longitudinal vs cross sectional layouts

Fee: Rs 14800

Submission Workflows & Validation Thinking

Structuring metadata and manifests for submission

sample and run tables conceptually file naming and path conventions linking IDs across tables and files

Thinking in terms of templates, checklists and audits

spreadsheet templates mindset internal completeness checklists simple pre submission audit ideas

Validation concepts and error handling strategies

common field and type mismatches missing and inconsistent values thinking iterative refinement of submission packages
