Dear microbiome research enthusiasts, Data Stewards and RDM Service providers,
we warmly invite you to join our NFDI4Microbiota’s hybrid Knowledge Base and Coding Sprint
on November 24-25th, 2025 online or in-person in Jena.
The Knowledge Base<https://knowledgebase.nfdi4microbiota.de/> offers extensive
information about research data management, software development and much more.
And you can help us to make this even better by contributing to the content, improving the
code or by suggesting new content and
features<https://github.com/NFDI4Microbiota/nfdi4microbiota-knowledge-...;.
Some ideas: You can add highly relevant tools to our bio.tools domain, add to our growing
list of community-suggested Standard Operating Procedures or share how you apply RDM to
your microbiology research.
Requirements:
*
GitHub account & own laptop.
*
Charger and eduroam credentials are needed for the in-person attendance.
GitHub newbies are welcome! We suggest to start with our "good first issues"!
Register here and add your name to over 30
