The NIH Library is pleased to present a one-day bioinformatics workshop and several bioinformatics classes this month, all offered online.

The NIH Library is hosting the Scholarly Publishing Symposium: Elevate Your Research Visibility, on March 18 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. in Lipsett Amphitheater, Building 10, and via videocast.

The NIH Library Bioinformatics Support Program has organized a training class on using Partek Genomics Suite (NGS) for analysis of gene expression and functional analysis of microarray data. This class will be held on Tuesday, September 13, from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in the NIH Library training room, Building 10.

This one-hour overview class introduces NIH authors to the major issues surrounding the topic of publication ethics. A foundation of best practices for professional writing will help authors identify and avoid career-damaging mistakes.

In conjunction with the NIH Research Festival​, the Library’s open house will showcase why we truly are “Your Partner in Research.” New this year will be a demonstration of the data visualization touch screen provided by the NIH Office of the Associate Director for Data Science.

Plagiarism—whether intentional or not—can be damaging to a researcher’s career. To help NIH authors check that all of a manuscript’s sources are cited, the NIH Library offers its Plagiarism Checking Service.
