Download as PPTX, PDF1 like310 views
This document summarizes Peter McQuilton's presentation on ELIXIR Standards and Formats, specifically the ISA Tools and FAIRsharing. It discusses how ISA (Investigation/Study/Assay) formats and tools help researchers describe experiments and share data according to community standards. It also describes FAIRsharing, a web portal that maps standards, databases, formats, and data policies to make them FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable). The presentation outlines how ISA and FAIRsharing connect to ELIXIR use cases and resources, and how the FAIRsharing team works with various groups and the community.
