Fundamentals of Scientific Metadata for Health

Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC) is all about boosting the quality of research data with the power of metadata – and we're bringing this approach to life across the entire Helmholtz Association! In this context, HMC is excited to offer the course Fundamentals of Scientific Metadata – For Health as part of the HIDS Data Science course portfolio.

This course is designed for scientists from the scientific discipline Health, especially those working with datasets and is an adaption of the published modular course Fundamentals of Scientific Metadata. It covers key concepts of data documentation and annotation. Participants learn about structured metadata, JSON and JSON schema, enabling technologies and standards and Web location and Identifies. Designed for beginners, this course includes hands-on tasks focused on documentation and metadata annotation.

While the course is open to everyone interested, it is particularly valuable for all Hub Health researchers and scientists, especially those working with datasets, as it enhances data management and metadata annotation skills.
