Atelier TT-CYTO

L'atelier EuroMarine TT-CYTO "Tips and Tricks towards flow cytometry data FAIRness" vise à construire des jeux de données interopérables pour la cytométrie en flux. Prévu à Wimereux (LOG) du 4 au 6 juin 2024.

Un atelier EuroMarine TT-CYTO "Tips and Tricks towards flow cytometry data FAIRness" est organisé par MIO, SYKE, CEFAS, LOG, SZN et HCMR, au LOG à Wimereux du 4 au 6 juin 2024. Cet atelier vise à construire des jeux de données interopérables pour la cytométrie en flux.  Il réunit les utilisateurs de cytomètres en flux in situ pour les amener à classer de la même manière les groupes de phytoplancton à partir de fichiers bruts. Il s'agit d'une étape obligatoire pour construire l'interopérabilité, les meilleures pratiques de gestion des données et des initiatives communes pour les jeux de données ouvertes.

Le Consortium d'Expertise Scientifique Cytométrie en flux du pôle ODATIS participe en tant qu'expert à cet atelier.

Les participants intéressés peuvent poser leur candidature en contactant Melilotus Thyssen avant le 29 février 2024.

Organised by MIO, SYKE, CEFAS, LOG,  SZN and HCMR, the EuroMarine workshop TT-CYTO aimed to build interoperable data sets for flow cytometry will be held at the LOG in Wimereux early June 2024. It will gather together users of in situ flow cytometers to make them classifying on the same way the phytoplankton groups from raw files. This is a mandatory step to build interoperability, data management best practices and push together initiatives for open datasets.

The CES-CYTOMETRIE ODATIS will participate as experts in the workshop.

Description:  Marine high frequency in-situ flow cytometry allows the analysis of phytoplankton at the single cell level, providing huge data sets of abundances and optical properties related to pigment content and size proxy. The TT-CYTO workshop aims to enhance marine flow cytometry data accessibility and reliability, focusing on FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) principles. It addresses discrepancies in manual gating and emphasizes establishing common guidelines, leveraging automated neural network processes, and promoting accessible databases. The initiative seeks to standardise practices and enhances the role of flow cytometry as a core variable in ecosystem monitoring. The TT-CYTO workshop is also an opportunity to tighten the actual in situ flow cytometry community even though most of us collaborate already together in national or international initiatives. However, the EuroMarine workshop is the unique occasion to be together for 3 days, to share our knowledge and train early career scientists to face new challenges such as using artificial intelligence methodology for analysing data on phytoplankton diversity and contribute to the development of more accurate ocean models.

Interested participants can apply by contacting Melilotus Thyssen before the 29 of February 2024.

Where: Laboratory of Oceanology and Geosciences (LOG) - Wimereux (northern France) with remote access of the workshop (partially).
