Description:

The workshop is focused on the system of experimental data and metadata management and processing and analysis of mass spectrometry data.

  • The first part of the workshop will present the solution in the field of experimental data and metadata management. The solution is developed in the frame of the BioWes (www.biowes.com) project and tries to cover all aspects of data management, including experimental and data analysis protocols. The general philosophy of the project is an assumption that the plan of the experiment is based on extended background information which is not fully intelligible from the resulting dataset. The aim of the workshop is to introduce the solution for experimental data and metadata standardization, storage, and sharing along with the tools for data processing.  (August 29, 9:00 – 12:00)
  • The second part of the workshop will discuss the data processing and analysis of mass spectrometry measurements based on a probabilistic approach, automation of the steps, and interpretation of the confidence level. (August 29, 13:15 – 18:00)
  • In the third part of the workshop, the participants will present their own contribution to the workshop topics. (August 30, 13:00 – 18:00). The candidates for the presentation should send the abstract until August 9, to Jan Urban Ph. D.(urbanj@frov.jcu.cz). The abstract should not exceed one page A4 and should be written in English. The committee will select the best abstracts for the oral presentation until August 16. Possible topics are data management, metadata, mass spectrometry, time alignment and multivariate data analysis.

 

Notebooks: The presentation of the experimental data management (see the program below) will include the active testing of the system by the participants of the workshop. A notebook, slate PC or tablet (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 or 8) will be needed for the testing. Several extra notebooks will be availaible on request (please use “Contacts” to apply). Please see also Danish plug/outlet info (e.g. AC power plugs and sockets on Wiki) to check your adapter compatibility.

 

Food and Drinks:

Coffee breaks: (coffee and cookies) will be provided by workshop organizers.

Lunch: Lunch is not provided for the participants. There is a restaurant within 5 minutes from the workshop venue.
