- ParaSite help desk question: 500 internal server error when trying to access FASTA file(s)?
NIH Trustworthy Data Repositories workshop
- Chris attended last week (April 8th and 9th)
- Focus on Core Trust Seal certification (https://www.coretrustseal.org/)
- 16 (+1) requirements
- Examples of accepted certification applications
- UniProt just applied
- Said it took 2-3 months calendar time (not full time effort; essentially only one person); already had most of the requested documentation
- Costs
- 1,000 Euros application fee; lasts three years
- Covers five (5) attempts to submit (most accepted after 2 or 3 attempts)
- Benefits?
- Potential discounts from Amazon or Google for having certification
- STRIDES (Science and Technology Research Infrastructure for Discovery, Experimentation, and Sustainability) Initiative
- Will help researchers implement cloud services
- Already have Alliance as a test case
- Strength on future grant applications and/or renewals
- Collaborators may be more inclined to share data and/or resources
- Improved documentation of plans and workflows
- Improved transparency for our users
- Potential discounts from Amazon or Google for having certification
- May want for Alliance more than for WormBase at this point
- NOT yet a requirement being imposed by funding agencies like the NIH/NHGRI
