NFDI4Biodiversity and community-driven tools for Research Data Management

Dr. Christoph Schomburg from the NFDI4Biodiversity presents a lecture titled: NFDI4Biodiversity and community-driven tools for Research Data Management at the Biodiversity Bioinformatics Summer School in June 2026.

The event was organised by SIB and ELIXIR Switzerland together with deNBI and ELIXIR Germany in Siegen, Germany.

The summer school aims to equip life scientists with extended knowledge and practical skills to address challenges in biodiversity studys across scale. Following a hackathon format with around 20 hours of dedicated hands-on training and collaborative problem-solving. Each participant will work within a single group throughout the week, fostering deep engagement, collaborative problem-solving, and the exchange of knowledge and expertise.

Topics are biodiversity across scales- from eDNA to ecosystems, capturing genetic diversity beyond a single reference, computing genomic essential biodiversity variables, and evolutionary and functional insights from large-scale comparative genomics.
