🏆 Finding Research Data at Yale Online

Description: 
Yale provides many rich data resources, so how do you find out if there is data somewhere that answers your research question? This interactive session introduces the biomedical and health sciences research data landscape and a strategic approach to engaging with it. Participants will learn guidelines for finding repositories and accessing the data inside them, with a special emphasis on Yale-affiliate resources.

 

Learning outcomes:

By the end of the class participants will be able to:

 

  1. Contextualize research data needs in ethical considerations while scoping dataset searches.

  2. Navigate and utilize multiple data discovery resources, including government databases, specialty biomedical repositories, and gray data sources to locate relevant datasets.

  3. Evaluate datasets for fitness and reusability by assessing documentation quality, licensing terms, limitations, and alignment with research objectives.
