Description: Biomedical research today is not only rigorous, innovative and insightful, it also has to be organized and reproducible. With more capacity to create and store data, there is the challenge of making data discoverable, understandable, and reusable. Many funding agencies and journal publishers are requiring publication of relevant data to promote open science and reproducibility of research.

In this workshop students will identify and discuss current workflow challenges throughout the research life cycle. By understanding best practices for managing your data throughout a project, you will succeed in making your research ready to publish, share, interpret, and be used by others.
