In November and December 2022, LifeSciTrainers.org will host a two-part discussion series on the intersection of the FAIR Principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable; see GO-FAIR) and training. Each discussion will invite all participants to share their knowledge and experiences and will begin with introductions from a group of distinguished panelists. We invite everyone interested to join and share challenges and advice.
