Join us for our monthly webinar next Wednesday, Oct. 2nd, at 12 PM CDT. Montana Smith will talk about the National Microbiome Data Collaborative (NMDC) initiative and their work on advancing microbiome science through FAIR and standardized metadata and data.

NMDC: Advancing microbiome science through FAIR and standardized metadata and data
The National Microbiome Data Collaborative (NMDC)’s mission is to support a FAIR microbiome data-sharing network through infrastructure, data standards, and community building that addresses pressing challenges in environmental sciences. In this webinar, we will dive into what the NMDC is and how standardized metadata capture enables FAIR data. We will walk through the 4 NMDC products and how they’re lowering barriers for experimental scientists to conduct their research in a way that ensures data re-use.
