New Updates Coming Soon!!
Welcome to the Multi-Omics Metadata Standards Integration (MOMSI) Working Group community-driven Multi-Omics standard landscape review curation workflow and interactive web-based dashboard tool. Explore >250 standards from our iterative Omics Landscape Review repository containing Multi-omics domain (genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, etc.) and universal (generalist) standards curated by the MOMSI WG.
This repository contains an iterative list of curated controlled vocabularies/ontologies, metadata reporting guidelines, data models/formats, and identifier schemas relevant to Omics application technologies and FAIR best practices. The MOMSI WG Landscape Review Dashboard is designed to support continuous curation of Omics domain and generalist community-accepted standards in real time aiding next-generation Multi-Omics data integration platform system developments, refinements, and new implementations.
This resource supports users interested in Multi-omics data and metadata standards development, integration, and data platform system developments across MOMSI domain subject areas in Genomics, Proteomics, Metabolomics, Lipidomics, and Phenomics corresponding to application technologies in sequencing, mass spectrometry, and bioimaging. Our live curation workflow aims to provide expert level (domain-informed) recommendation resources for non-expert professionals tasked with data management planning and forecasting tasks.
Target Audience:
- Researchers (data and metadata generators/stewards)
- Data Support Professionals (data managers/project managers)
- Developers (data and metadata consumers/generators/standard creators)
- Data Curators (data quality assurance assessors)
- Data Publishers (service providers)
Tip
Not sure where to begin?
- Explore User Journeys provided at the dashboard for themed use-cases organized by standard type, research data lifecycle stage, technology application, and/or research subject area classes/subclasses. Themed use-cases link out to supporting FAIRsharing record resources and educational materials at the RDMkit.
- Browse MOMSI Terminology provided at the dashboard (search list here) to better understand how terms are defined and applied across curated concepts and data lifecycle categories. MOMSI terms can be used to search standards listed at the dashboard summary table. A portion of these terms can be used for sorting and filtering tagged standards listed at the MOMSI FAIRsharing Collection (see sustainability section below) for targeted subject/domain search and discovery.
Community contributions are welcome and encouraged! Contribution guidelines for new record requests, edits, and/or other source code updates are available at the Contributing Guidelines page.
As part of the MOMSI WG sustainability workflow, supporting community best practices and transparency, all dashboard community contributions are captured using the CRediT Taxonomy Roles standard terminology and ORCID identifiers.
To provide comments or feedback on your user dashboard navigation experience, please visit the MOMSI WG Landscape Review Dashboard Feedback Form.
This repository is maintained by the MOMSI WG co-chairs. Co-chair duties include quality review of curated standards prior to merge and standard additions to the FAIRsharing Collection as record owners.
As part of our sustainability workflow and long-term maintenance plan this repository was established to provide a transparent method for sharing expert-level information with non-expert users. Expert curated Multi-Omics standards, originally captured in a Google Sheet, now available in a machine-actionable and version controlled environment, enables open-access to live curated WG deliverables for continuous update by the scientific community as future standards evolve. This repository serves as the first step in our sustainability workflow process for downstream inclusion at our MOMSI FAIRsharing Collection, in collaboration with the RDA FAIRsharing WG.
The dashboard is automatically rebuilt on any repository changes using scheduled workflows in GitHub Actions. To build and deploy your own version of this dashboard and repository, please review the DEPLOYMENT guide.
