Growing FAIR and tidy data

What we do

  • We collaborate with research groups to engineer and build up data as FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) and tidy data packages
  • We develop open-source tools that automate and streamline how we and others can build these data packages.
  • We upskill and empower researchers and data owners through mentoring, training, and the development of guides and tutorials.

A value-based and principle-driven initiative

In the Seedcase Project, we build software and community together. We’re dedicated to open science and open source, and we incorporate this in all aspects of our work. Our values and principles are described on our design website, and we write posts about our work and learnings on our community website.

Goals

Develop open-source software for health data

Software that is open-source and targeted to diverse users, like health research organizations and small-to-medium sized companies.

Create beginner-friendly documentation

Software is nothing without documentation. We strive to create documentation that is beginner-friendly, easy to understand, and as accessible as possible.

Build an inclusive community

A community that is open and inclusive that shares knowledge, learnings, and better practices in research data engineering and software engineering.

Lead by example

By building this project as fully open as possible and applying the same principles we teach and advocate for.
