A more general entry point for sequencing data #1010

Open bianchini88 opened 1 year ago

bianchini88 commented 1 year ago

What topic do you wish to add? A domain overview page discussing general data management considerations regarding sequencing is currently missing. Some of this is presently reported in "marine metagenomics" and "plant sciences" (e.g. the MIxS checklist or deposition on EVA). Such information can be very relevant to other users working on sequencing that might not be related to plants or marine organisms. I think having this "entry point" for sequencing data will facilitate the user's journey through RDMkit.

Are there existing pages in the RDMkit website related to the requested page? https://rdmkit.elixir-europe.org/marine_metagenomics https://rdmkit.elixir-europe.org/plant_sciences

Context This was raised in the context of a BioMedData hackathon, in a session aimed at assessing possible gaps between RDMkit and recommendations from Norwegian research infrastructures.

This is a very good point that keeps coming up. I think it is due to the fact that RDMkit doesn't make any distinction between "scientific domain" (such as, plants and marine biology) and "techniques" (such as, nucleic acid sequencing and proteomics). It is not always straightforward to define the difference between a domain and a technique, but I also think it is worth trying to provide better guidelines.

Some tools that were currently taken out are linked to a sequencing page (not yet present) They are listed here #1362

I was looking for a page like this when working on the domain page Human pathogen genomics. There might be some things that could be extracted from there and I would be happy to contribute in general.
