The course will give an introduction to containers (Docker & Singularity) which are great components to achieve portability and reproducibility of your analysis. You will learn how to use containers and how to build a container from scratch, share it with others and how to re-use and modify existing containers. After an extensive explanation on Docker containers, Singularity will be highlighted as well.
Objectives
The ELIXIR Training Platform has developed a series of training best practices and guidelines, covering several aspects of training development and delivery. These practices are the building blocks of the ‘ELIXIR Training Toolkit’, a collection of resources available in the ELIXIR website.
Free hands-on introductions to research data management and publication
The ELIXIR Interoperability Platform (EIP) KnowledgeHub is proposed as a systematic approach to collate and disseminate knowledge, working in close partnership with the FAIR Services Architecture Framework to support and provide a dissemination forum for the outputs generated from Task 1.
Over the next two years, the ELIXIR Interoperability Platform (EIP) will build on the extensive interoperability capacity building that has taken place to date, and deliver a set of interoperability stories that showcase EIP flagship interoperability services ‘in action’, and provide practical advice and guidance on the production of FAIR data and data analyses.
The ELIXIR Rare Disease (RD) Community will continue to be committed to the International Rare Disease Research Consortium (IRDiRC) Vision for 2027: Enable all people living with a rare disease to receive an accurate diagnosis, care, and available therapy within one year of coming to medical attention.
The main goal for the ELIXIR Federated Human Data (FHD) Community is to position the Federated EGA (FEGA) framework as the core infrastructure driver to support human data sharing for research use-cases from nationally, European Commission, and/or internationally funded human health data sharing projects.
This workshop will take you through the basic use of Git and GitHub. Git is a free and open source distributed version-control system designed to maintain code, track changes, recover old versions and collaborate with other developers.
Get you started with Git from zero (note that if you already use Git, this workshop will be too basic for you). We'll explore Git on the command-line and its interaction with GitHub. The following points will be addressed:
