She is examining changes in gene expression when nuclei lose histone-modifying complexes. The stages of her research involve a long period of methodology development, a shorter data collection period, and then data analysis. Various aspects of the data analysis are outsourced to facilities at the university. The lab notebook contains written documentation of all experiments and trials and links to data, versions of analysis and images, databases, and versions of the developing journal article. Therefore, keeping an organized electronic lab notebook is of high importance for the researcher. The centrality of the lab notebook to the function of the lab means that it is very important for her students to be trained to properly document their experiments using her lab notebook structures and protocols. There is a potential issue of being able to link some of the data files to the notebook because they are very large and must be stored at the analysis facility on campus.","PeriodicalId":284498,"journal":{"name":"Data Curation Profiles Directory","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123358182","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This separation of data and documentation presents a barrier to sharing the data with others, as the data set cannot be easily understood just from looking at the files themselves. The Graduate Student illustrated these barriers through recounting a time where he shared his data with a graduate student in the Agricultural and Biological Engineering department and the subsequent exchanges that were needed to explain the data sufficiently.

Once the files have been transcribed; the data needs to be cleaned up and normalized; and metadata applied, after which it should be searchable, so that the textual files can be searched for specific linguistic features and then call up the audio files. Ultimately the data will be ingested in a publically accessible searchable db, that allows for the download of segments.

The effort involved in retrieving and documenting the data so it’s usable by others is a barrier to sharing the data. It would be easier to share data from publications if it could be deposited to a centralized repository (institutional or elsewhere), where it could be maintained past the length of a grant-funded project.
