Hands-on workshop
Materials for FAIRification training

Friday, January 14, 2022, 9.00 - 17.00hr (with lots of breaks and interactive sessions)

Purpose of workshop

The purpose of this workshop is to work on material for FAIRification training, and possibly FAIRification projects. It is intended as an open, hands-on meeting for identifying and working in new materials and updating existing materials. Topics to work on will be selected by the participants. They could include updating training workflows, or technically improving FAIRification tools that can be used in training. The target users of the materials are rare disease data managers.

The workshop is kindly supported by the European Joint Programme Rare Diseases (https://www.ejprarediseases.org/) and partly facilitated by the Semantic Web Applications for Health Care and Life Sciences conference 2021-22 (SWAT4HCLS 2021-22, http://swat4ls.org/).
