We had a great time at Repository Fringe 15.   Our participation was inspired by this year’s theme: “Integrating Repositories in the wider context of university, funder and external services.”

Rory Macneil delivered a presentation describing how we’ve worked with researchers, IT managers and research data managers to integrate RSpace into the Edinburgh RDM infrastructure.

Using the example of the integration between RSpace and Edinburgh DataShare, our poster explained how electronic lab notebooks galvanise usage of data repositories.

Richard Adams demoed RSpace to a packed hall on the final afternoon.

Met lots of interesting people and great discussion around how institutional repositories are evolving!

After the conference Rory wrote a blog post with some follow up thoughts on 5 Positive Parallels between Data Repositories and Electronic Lab Notebooks.

Bridging Experimental Documentation and Computational Analysis: RSpace & Galaxy

Integrations

Together with the Galaxy Europe team at University of Freiburg we have integrated RSpace and Galaxy to eliminate manual data transfer between research documentation and computational analysis. Researchers can now browse and import files directly from RSpace Gallery into Galaxy workflows, reducing errors and saving time. Available in Galaxy version 25.0, this integration is the first step toward executing Galaxy workflows directly from within RSpace.
