When email is not enough. Get to grips with data movement challenges and solutions.
About this webinar
How does the internet work and does it impact on your research?
Dealing with data is an everyday part of modern biology. From small files to enormous data sets we are constantly moving and sharing data across the globe. How we move this data can have a big impact on our time and productivity.
Go back to basics in this interactive webinar to explore the factors that influence data movement and discover tools that can be used to move data efficiently. We'll cover topics such as jargon busting, types of networks, data movement solutions and introduce CloudStor as a tool for data storage, transfer and analysis.
This interactive webinar includes a hands-on component. There will be opportunities for discussion and questions.
Trainer: This event will be led by Sara King, AARNet, and Melissa Burke, Australian BioCommons.
