This record includes training materials associated with the Australian BioCommons workshop ‘Machine Learning in the Life Sciences’. This on 11 June 2024.
Event description
Machine learning promises to revolutionise life science research by speeding up data analysis, enabling prediction of biological patterns and modelling complex biological systems.
But what exactly is machine learning and when should you use it?
This hands-on online workshop provides a high-level introduction to machine learning: what it is, its advantages and disadvantages compared to traditional modelling approaches and the types of scenarios where it may be the right tool for the job. Using example datasets and basic machine learning pipelines we contrast a few commonly used algorithms for constructing predictive models and explore some of their trade-offs. We discuss common pitfalls in how machine learning is applied and evaluated, with a focus on its application in the life sciences, to help you recognise overly optimistic results. We discuss how and why such errors arise and strategies to avoid them.

Event description
There are many interesting patterns that you can extract from genetic variant data. This can include patterns of linkage, balancing selection, or even inbreeding signals. One of the most common approaches is to find sites on the genome that are under selection.
This workshop introduces the basics of genetic selection analysis. It will step you through the process of identifying signals of selection using your own data (or an example genomic dataset) using the outlier analysis method.

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.

This record includes training materials associated with the Australian BioCommons workshop ‘Introduction to Machine Learning in R - from data to knowledge’. This workshop took place over one, 4 hour sessions on 09 December 2024.
Event description
With the rise in high-throughput sequencing technologies, the volume of omics data has grown exponentially. A major issue is to mine useful knowledge from these heterogeneous collections of data. The analysis of complex high-volume data is not trivial and classical tools cannot be used to explore their full potential. Machine Learning (ML), a discipline in which computers perform automated learning without being programmed explicitly and assist humans to make sense of large and complex data sets, can thus be very useful in mining large omics datasets to uncover new insights that can advance the field of bioinformatics.
This hands-on workshop will introduce participants to the ML taxonomy and the applications of common ML algorithms to health data. The workshop will cover the foundational concepts and common methods being used to analyse omics data sets by providing a practical context through the use of basic but widely used R libraries. Participants will acquire an understanding of the standard ML processes, as well as the practical skills in applying them on familiar problems and publicly available real-world data sets.

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.

https://zenodo.org/records/13989494
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).

https://dresa.org.au/materials/geophysical-research-data-processing-and-modelling-for-2030-computation
The Cross-NCRIS National Data Assets program co-funded the ‘Geophysics 2030: Building a National High-Resolution Geophysics Reference Collection for 2030 Computation’ (Geophysics2030) project. At completion, Geophysics2030 i) trialled publishing vertically integrated geophysical datasets, making both raw datasets and successive levels of derivative data products available online in a new international self-describing data standard (first published in 2022); ii) co-located these datasets/data products with HPC computing resources required to process datasets at scale; and iii) developed new community software and environments allowing researchers to exploit the new data sets at high-resolution on a continental-scale. This ARDC, AuScope, NCI and TERN-funded project created new high-performance dataset and introduced a new, world-leading community platform that allows researchers to combine high-performance computing, high-resolution datasets, and flexible software workflows. The world-leading innovation was evidenced by new projects in collaboration with leading international researchers, including Jared Peacock, the United States Geological Survey-based leader of the new standards for Magnetotelluric (MT) data and Karl Kappler, DIAS Geophysics, who leads the development of ‘Aurora’, a National Science Foundation (USA) funded open-source software package for processing MT data using the new MTH5 standards.
This Community Connect project, in partnership with NCI and AuScope, proposed to develop, deliver, and distribute a 2-day ‘Geophysical Research Data Processing and Modelling for 2030 Computation’ workshop in 2023. The training packages will consist of two parts, i) the utilisation of NCI for Geophysics processing and modelling, and ii) developing workflows for coupling Geophysical software, compute environments and datasets.
Through previous engagement with the Geophysics community, we knew users of the 2030 Geophysics Collection were experts in their fields of geophysics data acquisition, processing and modelling. The community had high levels of computer literacy and deep technical skills in geophysics and research expertise. The workshop was targeted to support this advanced community and facilitate the usage of large co-located datasets and high-performance computing at the NCI HPC/cloud platform.
