This record includes training materials associated with the Australian BioCommons webinar ‘KBase - A knowledge base for systems biology’. This webinar took place on 22 September 2021.
Event description
Developed for bench biologists and bioinformaticians, The Department of Energy Systems Biology Knowledgebase (KBase) is a free, open source, software and data science platform designed to meet the grand challenge of systems biology: predicting and designing biological function.
This webinar will provide an overview of the KBase mission and user community, as well as a tour of the online platform and basic functionality. You’ll learn how KBase can support your research: Upload data, run analysis tools (Apps), share your analysis with collaborators, and publish your data and reproducible workflows. We’ll highlight a brand new feature that enables users to link environment and measurement data to sequencing data. You’ll also find out how KBase supports findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) research by providing open, reproducible, shareable bioinformatics workflows.

23 (research data) things is a set of training materials exploring research data management. Each of the 23 things offers a variety of learning opportunities with activities at three levels of complexity:
* Getting started
* Learn more
* Challenge me
All resources used in the program are online and free to use and reuse under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence. You could use all of them as a self-paced course, or choose components to integrate into your own course.
The 23 things are designed to build knowledge as the program progresses, so if you’re new to the world of research data management, we suggest you start with things 1-3 and then decide where you want to go from there.
These materials supported an international community-based training program delivered in 2016 by the Australian National Data Service.
This release migrates these materials to a GitHub repository for continued maintenance. Some updates were made to material that was outdated.
We welcome contributions and suggestions via GitHub Issue or Pull Request.

This presentation was part of an “Orientation to ARDC services and expertise” series, specifically aimed at people involved in one of the ARDC co-investment projects commencing early 2021. In addition to co-investment of money, ARDC contributes expertise and services in a range of areas: research vocabularies, persistent identifiers, data discovery catalogues, metadata issues, licensing, governance, underpinning infrastructure (e.g. Nectar Research Cloud) and more. ARDC can also connect projects to national and international communities and initiatives trying to solve common challenges and outline best practice.
This session explained why and how to publish, licence and cite software.

Three videos on miscellaneous aspects of HPC usage - useful reference for new users of HPC systems.
1 – General overview of different file systems that might be available on HPC. The video goes through shared file systems such as /home and /scratch, local compute node file systems (local scratch or $TMPDIR) and storage file system. It outlines what users need to consider if they wish to use any of these in their workflows.
2 – Overview of the different directories that might be present on HPC. These could include /home, /scratch, /opt, /lib and lib64, /sw and others.
3 – Overview of the Message-of-the-day file and the message that is displayed to users every time they log in. This displays info about general help and often current problems or upcoming outages.

A series of eight videos (each between 5 and 10 minutes long) following the content of the Software Carpentry workshop ["The Unix Shell"](https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/).
Sessions 1, 2 and 3 provide instructions on the minimal level of Linux/Unix commands recommended for new users of HPC.
1 – An overview of how to find out where a user is in the filesystem, list the files there, and how to get help on Unix commands
2 – How to move around the file system and change into other directories
3 – Explains the difference between an absolute and relative path
4 – Overview of how to create new directories, and to create and edit new files with nano
5 – How to use the vi editor to edit files
6 – Overview of file viewers available
7 – How to copy and move files and directories
8 – How to remove files and directories
