WEBINAR: Getting started with command line bioinformatics https://dresa.org.au/materials/webinar-getting-started-with-command-line-bioinformatics-248027d1-0773-485a-b511-831e2fd4cc64 This record includes training materials associated with the Australian BioCommons webinar ‘Getting started with command line bioinformatics’. This webinar took place on 22 June 2021.  Bioinformatics skills are in demand like never before and biologists are stepping up to the challenge of learning to analyse large and ever growing datasets. Learning how to use the command line can open up many options for data analysis but getting started can be a little daunting for those without a background in computer science. Parice Brandies and Carolyn Hogg have recently put together ten simple rules for getting started with command-line bioinformatics to help biologists begin their computational journeys. In this webinar Parice walks you through their hints and tips for getting started with the command line. She covers topics like learning tech speak, evaluating your data and workflows, assessing computational requirements, computing options, the basics of software installation, curating and testing scripts, a bit of bash and keeping good records. The webinar will be followed by a short Q&A session. The slides were created by Parice Brandies and are based on the publication ‘Ten simple rules for getting started with command-line bioinformatics’ (https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1008645).

The Living Book of Digital Skills https://dresa.org.au/materials/the-living-book-of-digital-skills *The Living Book of Digital Skills (You never knew you needed until now)* is a living, open source online guide to 'modern not-quite-technical computer skills' for researchers and the broader academic community. A collaboration between Australia's Academic Research Network (AARNet) and the Council of Australian Librarians (CAUL), this book is the creation of the CAUL Digital Dexterity Champions and their communities. **Contributing to the Digital Skills GitBook** The Digital Skills GitBook is an open source project and like many projects on GitHub we welcome your contributions. If you have knowledge or expertise on one of our [requested topics](https://aarnet.gitbook.io/digital-skills-gitbook-1/requested-articles), we would love you to write an article for the book. Please let us know what you'd like to write about via our [contributor form](https://github.com/AARNet/Digital-Skills-GitBook/issues/new?assignees=sarasrking&labels=contributors&template=contributor-form.yml&title=Contributor+form%3A+). There are other ways to contribute too. For example, you might: * have a great idea for a new topic to be included in one of our chapters (make a new page) * notice some information that’s out-of-date or that could be explained better (edit a page) * come across something in the GitBook that’s not working as it should be (submit an issue) Sara King - sara.king@aarnet.edu.au Sara King Miah de Francesch Emma Chapman Katie Mills Ruth Cameron digital skills, digital dexterity, community, open source ugrad masters mbr phd ecr researcher support
