Repository to host data and tools associated with articles published by GigaScience & GigaByte journals. GigaDB defines a dataset as a group of files (e.g., sequencing data, analyses, imaging files, software programs) that are related to and support an article or study. Through their association with DataCite, each dataset will be assigned a DOI that can be used as a standard citation for future use of these data in other articles by the authors and other researchers. Datasets in GigaDB all require a title that is specific to the dataset, an author list, and an abstract that provides information specific to the data included within the dataset. Detailed information about the dataset is curated by dedicated biocurators in collaboration with the article authors at the time of publication of the associated manuscript to ensure full transparency and reproducibility of all journal articles published in GigaScience and GigaByte journals.

http://www.re3data.org/

Global registry of research data repositories from all academic disciplines that allows the easy identification of appropriate research data repositories, both for data producers and users. Information icons display principal attributes of a repository that can be used for multi-faceted searches. Repository operators can suggest their infrastructures to be listed via a simple application form. A repository is indexed when the minimum requirements are met, i.e. mode of access to the data and repository, as well as the terms of use.

An independent, not-for-profit consortium to accelerate research, and improve treatment for patients affected with the most commonly-diagnosed cancers in Asia by generating a genomic data resource for the most prevalent cancers in Asia. ACRG is focusing its initial efforts on Asian liver, gastric and lung cancers. Goals * Generate comprehensive genomics data sets for Asia-prevalent cancers * Conduct all research under good clinical practices and in accordance with local laws * Uncover key mutations and pathways for developing targeted therapies * Discover molecular tumor classifiers for patient stratification * Discover prognostic markers to identify high-risk patients * Freely share resulting raw data with scientific community to empower researchers globally and enable development of new diagnostics and medicines * Publish data analysis results jointly in prominent scientific journals Over the next two years, Lilly, Merck and Pfizer have committed to create an extensive pharmacogenomic cancer database that will be composed of data from approximately 2,000 tissue samples from patients with lung and gastric cancer that will be made publicly available to researchers and, over time, further populated with clinical data from a longitudinal analysis of patients. Comparison of the contrasting genomic signatures of these cancers could inform new approaches to treatment. Lilly has assumed responsibility for ultimately providing the data to the research public through an open-source concept managed by Lilly''''s Singapore research site. Moreover, Lilly, Merck and Pfizer will each provide technical and intellectual expertise. One dataset can be found at http://gigadb.org/dataset/100034

http://www.datacite.org/

Platform for storing, finding and accessing data that provides a service for data centres to mint DOIs and store associated metadata. Their goals are to establish easier access to scientific research data on the Internet, increase acceptance of research data as legitimate, citable contributions to the scientific record and support data archiving that will permit results to be verified and re-purposed for future study. DataCite is global, with member institutions offering services and advice directly where they are needed by the researchers. While datasets are shared and accessed globally, researchers work within national funding and organizational frameworks. It therefore operates globally, with national representation. The DataCite Metadata Scheme is a list of core metadata properties chosen for the accurate and consistent identification of data for citation and retrieval purposes, along with recommended use instructions.

https://fairsharing.org/collections/

Web-based, searchable portal of three interlinked registries, containing both in-house and crowdsourced manually curated descriptions of standards, databases and data policies, combined with integrated view across all three types of resource. By registering your resource on FAIRsharing, you gain credit for your work, increase its visibility outside of your direct domain, reduce potential for unnecessary reinvention and proliferation of standards and databases.

http://www.gigasciencejournal.com/

An online open-access open-data journal, publishing ''big-data'' studies from the entire spectrum of life and biomedical sciences whose publication format links standard manuscript publication with its affiliated database, GigaDB, that hosts all associated data, provides data analysis tools, cloud-computing resources, and a DOI assignment to every dataset. GigaScience covers not just ''omic'' type data and the fields of high-throughput biology currently serviced by large public repositories, but also the growing range of more difficult-to-access data, such as imaging, neuroscience, ecology, cohort data, systems biology and other new types of large-scale sharable data. Supporting the open-data movement, they require that all supporting data and source code be publicly available in a suitable public repository and/or under a public domain CC0 license in the BGI GigaScience database. Using the BGI cloud as a test environment, they also consider open-source software tools / methods for the analysis or handling of large-scale data. When submitting a manuscript, please contact them if you have datasets or cloud applications you would like them to host. To maximize data usability submitters are encouraged to follow best practice for metadata reporting and are given the opportunity to submit in ISA-Tab format.
