WORKSHOP: Making sense of gene and protein lists with functional enrichment analysis https://dresa.org.au/materials/workshop-making-sense-of-gene-and-protein-lists-with-functional-enrichment-analysis This record includes training materials associated with the Australian BioCommons workshop ‘Making sense of gene and protein lists with functional enrichment analysis’. This workshop took place over two, 3 hour sessions on 20, 21 November 2024. Event description Omics experiments often generate long lists of genes or proteins. Functional enrichment analysis identifies biological trends in the data by assessing these lists against gene ontology and pathway information. This can help interpret the experimental results in the context of larger biological systems. This workshop continues from our introductory webinar and provides a practical introduction to functional enrichment analysis. Using example data you will get hands-on with some of the most commonly used databases and tools for over representation (ORA) and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) and for identifying enriched biological functions in a list of genes or proteins. We’ll focus on tools available online and in R.

ARDC Digital Research Capabilities and Skills Framework: The Framework and Its Components https://dresa.org.au/materials/ardc-digital-research-capabilities-and-skills-framework-the-framework-and-its-components The ARDC's Digital Research Capabilities and Skills Framework, released in 2022, provides a structure for training programs to develop essential and advanced digital research skills. It aims to help researchers and professionals identify the necessary skills they need to leverage emerging opportunities in data management, data analysis, data linking, AI, and machine learning. The framework aligns with technological advancements and encourages ongoing discussion and contributions to evolve the coverage of digital research skills. The framework focuses on digital research skills, excluding broader professional skills, and is intended for a wide range of stakeholders. It provides a structured approach for project teams and organisations to develop and enhance their digital research skills through six main components: a skills taxonomy, a skills glossary, a list of generalised roles, roles and skills-related profiles, learning paths, and a skills and roles matrix. The skills taxonomy classifies digital research skills into four capability families: Governance, Data, Software, and Digital Research Infrastructure Management. It provides a standard terminology for identifying and describing these skills. contact@ardc.edu.au Russell, Keith (type: Editor) Wong, Adeline (type: Editor) Lyrtzis, Ellen (type: Editor) training material, skills framework, ARDC skills framework, ARDC capabilities framework, national skills framework, learning path, role profile, capabilities, FAIR implementation, skills, data management, research software, data governance, digital research infrastructure

WEBINAR: Making sense of gene and protein lists with functional enrichment analysis https://dresa.org.au/materials/webinar-making-sense-of-gene-and-protein-lists-with-functional-enrichment-analysis This record includes training materials associated with the Australian BioCommons webinar ‘Making sense of gene and protein lists with functional enrichment analysis’. This webinar took place on 23 October 2024. Topic description Do you have a long list of genes or proteins from omics experiments that you don’t know what to do with? This webinar explains how functional enrichment analysis can be used to understand what these lists mean by employing gene ontology and pathway information to highlight the underlying biology. We’ll discuss the statistics that underpin enrichment analysis methods and some of the most commonly used tools, databases and workflows.

Ten Simple Rules for Researchers: Upskilling for a Rapidly Evolving Workforce https://dresa.org.au/materials/ten-simple-rules-for-researchers-upskilling-for-a-rapidly-evolving-workforce The following recommendations were inspired by the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) Digital Research Skills Summit 2023, that brought together Researchers, Learning Designers, Skills Trainers, and Librarians in productive discussions on how to run effective researcher skills training. These rules outline how to think about skills learning for researchers, plan training sessions, and efficiently maximize learning. We offer recommendations on how to design and develop learner-centered training programs (Rules 1 and 2), foster outreach, and connect with trainer communities (Rules 3 and 4). We then provide tips to manage and optimize training (Rules 5, 6, and 7), and conclude with valuable insights on preparing for uncertainty and the importance of post-training operations and continued learning (Rules 8, 9, and 10). contact@ardc.edu.au Training, Training Material, Short Format Training, Digital Skills, Researcher Training, Learning

WORKSHOP: Unlocking nf-core - customising workflows for your research https://dresa.org.au/materials/workshop-unlocking-nf-core-customising-workflows-for-your-research-1584ff39-e007-4422-9fd5-4e407df6b6c5 This record includes training materials associated with the Australian BioCommons workshop Unlocking nf-core - customising workflows for your research’. This workshop took place over two, 3 hour sessions on 18-19 May 2023. Event description Processing and analysing omics datasets poses many challenges to life scientists, particularly when we need to share our methods with other researchers and scale up our research. Public and reproducible bioinformatics workflows, like those developed by nf-core, are invaluable resources for the life science community. nf-core is a community-driven effort to provide high-quality bioinformatics workflows for common analyses including, RNAseq, mapping, variant calling, and single cell transcriptomics. A big advantage of using nf-core workflows is the ability to customise and optimise them for different computational environments, types and sizes of data and research goals.  This workshop will set you up with the foundational knowledge required to run and customise nf-core workflows in a reproducible manner. On day 1 you will learn about the nf-core tools utility, and step through the code structure of nf-core workflows. Then on day 2, using the nf-core/rnaseq workflow as an example, you will explore the various ways to adjust the workflow parameters, customise processes, and configure the workflow for your computational environment. This workshop event and accompanying materials were developed by the Sydney Informatics Hub, University of Sydney in partnership with Seqera Labs, Pawsey Supercomputing Research Centre, and Australia’s National Research Education Network (AARNet).

ARDC Skills Landscape https://dresa.org.au/materials/ardc-skills-landscape-56b224ca-9e30-4771-8615-d028c7be86a6 The Australian Research Data Commons is driving transformational change in the research data ecosystem, enabling researchers to conduct world class data-intensive research. One interconnected component of this ecosystem is skills development/uplift, which is critical to the Commons and its purpose of providing Australian researchers with a competitive advantage through data.   In this presentation, Kathryn Unsworth introduces the ARDC Skills Landscape. The Landscape is a first step in developing a national skills framework to enable a coordinated and cohesive approach to skills development across the Australian eResearch sector. It is also a first step towards helping to analyse current approaches in data training to identify: - Siloed skills initiatives, and finding ways to build partnerships and improve collaboration - Skills deficits, and working to address the gaps in data skills - Areas of skills development for investment by skills stakeholders like universities, research organisations, skills and training service providers, ARDC, etc.   contact@ardc.edu.au skills, data skills, eresearch skills, community, skilled workforce, FAIR, research data management, data stewardship, data governance, data use, data generation, training material
