Hi Anna,
My name is Nikki Pelot, and I'm Research Program Director for the Grill SPARC award at Duke University. Thank you for the intro email.
Our team has uploaded 9 histology datasets (plus metadata and protocols). We have not received any feedback on them, so hopefully they are correct and complete.
Moving forward, we will be uploading computational modeling data, which does not fit the BIDS/metadata/protocol templates. However, we will be uploading our model inputs & outputs, with clear documentation; we will be uploading model code at a later date to accompany manuscripts, as per discussions with the NIH SPARC PMs.
Lastly, I've been in discussions with Anita, Joost, and Andrew about the metadata describing a dataset. The datasets display differently in Blackfynn vs. Blackfynn Discover vs. SPARC portal. Those result pages should be clear in the dataset description (title, ordered authors with affiliations, abstract, DOI, tags/keywords ...). Further, there are metadata uploaded in the dataset (e.g., dataset_description.xlsx), but also metadata fields on Blackfynn. So before the datasets go public, the investigators should have an opportunity to ensure that their dataset descriptions in particular are complete, accurate, and displaying property.
Thanks,
Nikki

Subject: SPARC INITIATIVE data submition NIH OT2-025340Dear Dr. Pelot ,
My name is Anna Pilko and I am very excited to be the new Research Coordinator in the SPARC Initiative. I am sending this email to introduce myself and to thank you for your contribution to the project.
Having ~20 years of experience in molecular biology, I understand that your time is extremely valuable so I will try to minimize what the curation team asks of you. However, some actions on your part might be required once I review all of the submitted files.
This email is to let you know that I will be looking at your files in the coming 1-2 weeks.
Please expect to hear from me either if I encounter any problems or once the process is complete. Should you have any questions and/or concerns please do not hesitate to reach me at apilkocuration@gmail.com<mailto:apilkocuration@gmail.com>.
I appreciate your understanding and apologize for delays in data processing as we are dealing with a backlog caused by the implementation of new templates and changes in staffing at UCSD.
Sincerely,
Anna (Anka) Pilko, Ph.D
Research Data Coordinator
UC San Diego, Atkinson Hall, 9500 Gilman Dr, La Jolla, CA 92093
