FAIRDOM-SEEK

FAIRDOM-SEEK enables sharing, linking, and preservation of heterogeneous research data, models, simulations, processes, and associated metadata to support reproducible systems biology research.


Key Features:

  • Data Sharing: Enables sharing of heterogeneous scientific datasets.
  • Model Integration: Supports integration of models and simulations relevant to research projects.
  • Process Documentation: Stores comprehensive documentation of research processes and operating procedures.
  • Outcome Preservation: Preserves research outcomes together with associated metadata.
  • Association Preservation: Preserves associations between datasets, models, simulations, processes, and outcomes.
  • Contributor Metadata Capture: Captures detailed information about researchers and organizations involved in projects.
  • FAIRDOMHub Integration: Aligns with FAIRDOMHub for publishing FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) Data, operating procedures, and models.
  • API Interrogation: Provides API interfaces for querying and accessing stored information.
  • Organizing Research Assets: Organizes data, models, and protocols for systematic study management.
  • Interlinking Contexts: Interlinks research assets within the context of systems biology investigations.

Scientific Applications:

  • Publishing FAIR Data and Models: Publishes FAIR Data, operating procedures, and models via integration with FAIRDOMHub.
  • Reproducible Research: Preserves provenance and metadata to support reproducible publications adhering to FAIR principles.
  • Systems Biology Investigations: Facilitates organization and interlinking of datasets, models, and protocols for systems biology studies.
  • Programmatic Access and Integration: Enables programmatic querying and integration of assets through APIs.
  • Provenance and Attribution Tracking: Records contributor and organizational metadata to support provenance and attribution.

Methodology:

Preserves associations and contributor metadata for datasets, models, simulations, processes, and outcomes and exposes API interfaces for programmatic querying and access.
