The Boosting Biodata Bootcamp 2026 is jointly organized by #NFDI4Microbiota @nfdi4bioimage @nfdi4biodiv @nfdi4plants and @FAIRagro

The Joint Science Conference (GWK) has adopted a new federal–state agreement (BLV) for #NFDI, defining its funding and future structure for the period 2029–2038.

As NFDI prepares for this next phase, #NFDI4Microbiota is actively contributing to the restructuring through two NFDI interest groups focused on biodata and biomedicine.

Research data is growing fast. How can we efficiently organize and connect it?

Don’t miss this NFDITalk on Aruna, a federated platform that links data, metadata, storage, and repositories - making research data FAIR from the start.

This service is supported and co-developed by #NFDI4Microbiota

Preparing for the future of #microbiome and #microbiology data management!

Last week, many members of the #NFDI4Microbiota consortium came together to kick off preparations for the next funding phase. Over two half-days, we engaged in fruitful discussions, shared ideas, and aligned our plans for the future

Together, we continue working towards our mission: Making Microbiology Data FAIR and Open.

#NFDI #microbiology #news

As part of the #analytica conference, the topic of Research Data Management (RDM) was once again in the spotlight.

In the session “Use Cases in Data Science,” our speaker Konrad Förstner introduced the #NFDI framework. Using #nfdi4microbiota as an example, he demonstrated that effective #rdm is the backbone of modern, data-driven science.

Dear #Microbiology community 🧫
2025 was a highly successful year for #nfdi4microbiota: mid-term evaluation passed with flying colors, renewal proposal submitted & defended, widely used FAIR services launched, expanded training & outreach, and strengthened collaborations across #NFDI life sciences consortia. A highlight: our Annual Conference in Cologne, bringing the community together for exchange & networking.

We wish you peaceful holidays and a great start to a healthy and successful 2026! 🎄✨

🧬 Weekly #Nextflow & #nfcore Drop-in Session!
Got questions about your workflows? Need help building or running pipelines?

💬 Join our open session this Friday 10–11 CET with Daniel Straub (Uni Tübingen) — no registration needed!
