📄️ Onboarding Guide
Welcome to the Gray Foundation Data Coordination Center Onboarding Guide. This guide provides an overview of the onboarding process for teams and outlines your responsibilities as you navigate through your project.
📄️ Data Sharing Plan
One important component of a data sharing plan is to outline what datasets will be shared. We have a form that collects information focusing on this component. It is not as extensive as a plan described by NIH policies(opens in a new tab), but is nevertheless used for the practical purpose of better data management. By having a record of what to expect, the DCC can better plan storage, new application features, governance, and other infrastructure around the incoming data.
📄️ Account Setup
To begin using Synapse, please follow these steps:
📄️ Uploading Data
Before you begin, identify the destination for your data. Most data are organized in pre-assigned folders based on assay and data levels. You can create subfolders for additional organization, especially for batch-specific data.
📄️ Data Organization
Data is organized by its assay type and, logically, its processed type in folders.
📄️ Applying Metadata to Data
After uploading data, contributors can find those files on our Data Curator App, which is used to help annotate the data. Select Gray Foundation, your project name, and the folder of files you want to annotate. Then select a metadata template.
📄️ Data Analysis
Processed data are made available on some of the most well-known applications.
