Using publicly available data
In today’s scientific era, generating your own data is not always a prerequisite for making new discoveries. An abundance of data is shared by global scientific communities via publications and data repositories. Delving into these publicly accessible datasets can yield valuable insights, revealing informative details, highlighting gaps in the collective knowledge, and even help in raising innovative queries for further research exploration.
This collection includes an online tutorial that will provide you with the concept of publicly available data. The tutorial demonstrates the types of data accessible and provides insights into how to effectively utilise it. The tutorial will take approximately 30 minutes to complete.
Once you have finished this online tutorial, come back here to continue the collection to learn about the concepts and methods useful in modern plant science research.
