We’re kicking off the 2015 Holz brown bag series with the talk “Data Management in Biological Microscopy: A Librarian’s Approach,” presented by Elliott Shuppy.
TIME: Wednesday January 28th, 12pm-1pm.
PLACE: Bunge Room, School of Library and Information Studies, 4th floor of Helen C. White Hall.
ABSTRACT: A growing demand for convenient sharing of research image data between the Laboratory for Optical and Computational Imaging (LOCI) and partner laboratories stimulated the need for enhanced data management processes and accompanying documentation. Elliott began working as a graduate researcher at LOCI in Fall 2014, and has collaborated with research scientists to meet their present data management needs. During his talk he will discuss his involvement augmenting one scientist’s data management workflow, including reflections on current practices, positioned and proposed tactics, and next steps in the process.
ABOUT ELLIOTT: Elliott is a graduate student at the School of Library and Information Studies at UW-Madison. His professional emphasis is in data management and curation practices and education across campus units.
