Description |
|
| This knowledge exchange workshop is an opportunity for managers of bioinformatics core facilities to learn from EMBL-EBI’s service teams, and from each other. These facilities play an essential role in enabling research in the molecular life sciences. The landscape is constantly evolving as new research tools emerge, as experiments become increasingly data intensive, and as their clients – experimental researchers – become more exposed to the power of data-driven biology. This course will allow participants to share experiences, discuss challenges and solutions that they face, and plan ways to cope with the ever changing demands raised by the molecular life science field. It will include sessions to learn from data providers at EMBL-EBI, hear how others have tackled common problems, and work together to design core services. Who is this course for? This workshop is aimed at new and experienced managers of bioinformatics core facilities, or other facilities that support their users to analyse and interpret large biomolecular data sets. This course will not provide a platform for teaching hands-on bioinformatics analysis. What will I learn? After this course you should be able to: Identify the strengths and limitations of your core facility Apply a framework for designing new services (including training your users) or redesigning existing services Appreciate different cost models, their pros and cons, and how to apply them in the context of your core facility Advise your users on how to manage sensitive data and where to submit them Course content During this course you will learn about: The role of core bioinformatics facilities How to design and resource your service Introduction to project management |
