The Dementias Platform UK (DPUK) Data Portal is a data repository facilitating access to data for 3 370 929 individuals in 42 cohorts. The Data Portal is an end-to-end data management solution providing a secure, fully auditable, remote access environment for the analysis of cohort data. All projects utilising the data…

This article presents elements in the Data Tags Suite (DATS) metadata schema describing data access, data use conditions, and consent information. DATS is a product of the bioCADDIE Project, which created a data discovery index for searching across all types of biomedical data. The “access and use” metadata items in…

The rise of big data in modern research poses serious challenges for data management: Large and intricate datasets from diverse instrumentation must be precisely aligned, annotated, and processed in a variety of ways to extract new insights. While high levels of data integrity are expected, research teams have diverse…

Genomic researchers are increasingly utilizing commercial cloud platforms (CCPs) to manage their data and analytics needs. Commercial clouds allow researchers to grow their storage and analytics capacity on demand, keeping pace with expanding project data footprints and enabling researchers to avoid large capital…

We propose a search engine and file retrieval system for all bioinformatics databases worldwide. PubData searches biomedical data in a user-friendly fashion similar to how PubMed searches biomedical literature. PubData is built on novel network programming, natural language processing, and artificial intelligence…

New infrastructure projects are planned or under construction in several countries, including in the bioculturally diverse Amazon, Mekong, and Congo regions. While infrastructure development can improve human health and living standards, it may also lead to environmental degradation and social change. Accessible, high…

Scientific bottom-trawl surveys provide essential fisheries-independent data for fisheries and ecosystem research. In the Northeast Atlantic, the ICES Database of Trawl Surveys (DATRAS) compiles haul-level information, species- and length-specific catch data, and individual biological observations across multiple…

This paper describes the adoption of a standard policy for the inclusion of data availability statements in all research articles published at the Nature family of journals, and the subsequent research which assessed the impacts that these policies had on authors, editors, and the availability of datasets. The key…

Data management and publication are core components of the research process. An emerging challenge that has received limited attention in biology is managing, working with, and providing access to data under continual active collection. “Evolving data” present unique challenges in quality assurance and control, data…

The number of data sets in biomedical repositories has grown rapidly over the past decade, providing scientists in fields like genomics and other areas of high-throughput biology with tremendous opportunities to re-use data. Scientists are able to test hypotheses computationally instead of generating their own data, to…

Today’s science increasingly requires effective ways to find and access existing datasets that are distributed across a range of repositories. For researchers in the life sciences, discoverability of datasets may soon become as essential as identifying the latest publications via PubMed. Through an international…

With the advent of next-generation marker platforms and phenomics in crop breeding programs, the volume of both the genotypic and phenotypic data produced has increased exponentially. Often the data remain underutilized if not properly collated, managed and accessed. Effective management of the data is paramount to…
