Greetings! I hope your fall is off to a great start, not sure about you, but it is one of favorite seasons of the year. The upcoming October seminar is amazingly timely, and the neat thing is that the topic was set up early this spring, prior to the RCN announcement/kickoff last month (https://youtu.be/Sx3mZENaTro). If you were online or have watched the video, you will recall a significant amount of time was spent on making data FAIR and is a core objective of the RCN. Dr. Allyson Lister from Oxford e-Research Centre at the University of Oxford is a Knowledge Engineer, and FAIRsharing advocate that will challenge us on how we do our work AND make our data FAIR. Read more in the abstract below. I hope your schedule will allow you to join us. As usual we will record and publish the content after the meeting. All the best!

FAIRsharing promotes the existence and value of these standards, repositories and policies, fostering a culture change within the research community into one where the use of these resources for FAIRer data is pervasive and seamless. This is achieved by guiding consumers to discover, select and use these resources with confidence, and helping producers to make their resources more visible, more widely adopted and cited. This presentation will highlight key collaborative, successful activities as well as next steps within FAIRsharing. It will also provide information on how to become a recommended repository in FAIRsharing and how to use FAIRsharing to engage with your stakeholders as well as with journal publishers and their data policies.

Provide new Working Group ideas for the AgBioData RCN!

by Campbell, Darwin A [AGRON]

Last week, the Steering Committee shared with you the goals and objectives of the recently funded NSF-RCN. The recording of the meeting is available on YouTube at https://youtu.be/Sx3mZENaTro and the slides are available at the AgBioData website: https://www.agbiodata.org/meetings This is your opportunity to propose additional Working Groups and their objectives or goals. You will find the form to make suggestions here (best viewed in Firefox, Chrome, or Opera browsers): https://iastate.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0HhG7VCjFYBqUyW Do not delay! This form will remain open through September 15th. Please expect a second and final survey on working group participation and membership in mid-September. These Working Groups were presented by the Steering Committee: Nomenclature, Metadata Standards, Data federation, Emerging data types, Recruiting, Implementation, Education, Sustainability You can review the kickoff meeting slides for more information: https://www.agbiodata.org/sites/default/files/files/September_1_2021_RCN.pdf. During the RCN kickoff meeting, these additional Working Groups were suggested: Data collection accuracy and precision Ontologies Incorporation of data from precision sensing technologies Pan-genomes Phenology Pan-transcriptome Molecular genotype-phenotype links; such as GTEx Thank you once again for your interest and support of AgBioData!

AG2PI Field Day: Industry Showcase of G2P solutions

by Scott, Nicole M [AGRON]

Dear AgBioData members, The next AG2PI Field Day is on Wednesday, October 20 from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM (Central Time, -5 GMT). In this field day, we will hear from scientists at two companies that develop tools for genomic and phenomic research and analysis. First, Dr. Katrin Jakob, from Plant Di-Tech, will discuss how their PlantArray functional phenotyping technology captures plant-water balance in tomato plants, which allows for customized and precise set-up of drought stress conditions. Then, Matt Bechdol and Evan Flatt, from GRYFN, will discuss the multi-modal UAS sensing solutions they develop for multi-sensor integration design, calibration, processing, and operations. This discussion will hit themes that are relevant to the animal, plant and data sciences, so we hope you join us for an engaging conversation! We invite you to register for this Zoom event at https://tinyurl.com/AG2PI-FD12, where you will also find additional information. Upon registration, you will receive a confirmation email with information about joining the meeting. If you are unable to attend the live session, then you will be able to find a recording at ag2pi.org/<https://www.ag2pi.org/>, at a later date. Please note: this field day is a result of an open call for presenters; AG2PI does not endorse or otherwise benefit from the companies presenting at this event.

Survey for cloud-based computational needs

by Meg Staton

A group of investigators including Alex Feltus is seeking information to develop an NSF CSSI grant. It will support some genome database software (Tripal) but also basic computational research needs for scientists. If you have a moment to answer a few questions, they would appreciate it: https://tntech.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0rEroKTEqUW1MSG Meg -- Margaret Staton Associate Professor Department of Entomology and Plant Pathology Office: 154 PBB Mail: 370 PBB, 2505 EJ Chapman Drive Knoxville, TN 37996-4560 she/her/hers 864-506-4515 Mobile mstaton1(a)utk.edu *Advanced Out of Office Notice* *October 11-15, 2021*
