Coming up next:
BBMRI-ERIC Sample and Data Portal
– A demonstration of a new platform utilising federated search
Radovan Tomášik, Zdenka Dudova, Petr Holub, BBMRI-ERIC.
The BBMRI-ERIC Sample and Data Portal is a platform consisting of multiple services developed by our community. The platform’s goal is to fulfill a vision about sample and data query processing in Europe, put together by the consortial partners and coordinated by BBMRI-ERIC Headquarters.
Building on top of our most widely known discovery service the BBMRI-ERIC Directory, which is the world’s largest biobank catalogue, the BBMRI community has developed an entire platform of new services to enhance on our ability to build cross-border cohorts. These new services support federated search for samples, querying of data sets, data analyses, data extraction/pooling and access management using the BBMRI-ERIC Negotiator.
Join us to find out more about how the tool works, who it is available to, what kind of privacy questions it resolves, and real world use-cases this platform was designed to solve. As usual, the presentation and demonstration will be followed by an open Q&A and discussion among webinar participants.
Date: November 10, 2023
Time: 12:00-13:00 (Central European Time)
About: The webinar is free of charge and will be live-streamed.
