Research Object Storage (S3): An overview for researchers and support staff (online)
Research Object Storage (S3): An overview for researchers and support staff (online)
Research generates data of all sizes, from a few megabytes to hundreds of terabytes. And let’s face it, storing all that data can be costly. In this virtual session, we’ll introduce Research Object Storage (S3), a new campus-hosted data storage service offering 50TB of no cost storage to eligible researchers. Discover how this service can significantly reduce storage costs and enable new ways to use and distribute your data. Recommended for researchers, IT, and other support staff.

Research Object Storage (S3): A deep dive for technical support staff (FREE and online)
In this virtual session, we’ll further explore Research Object Storage (S3), a new campus-hosted data storage service offering 50TB of no-cost storage to eligible researchers. This session, which will be geared toward technical support staff, will highlight access methods (such as API), practical applications, and potential issues using the service. What are common IT tasks associated with this service and how do you know if this is a service you should recommend to your researchers?

Intermediate Research Software Development with Python
https://uw-madison-datascience.github.io/2025-03-24-uwmadison-intermedpython/Intermediate Research Software Development with Python aims to teach a core set of established, intermediate-level software development skills and best practices for working as part of a team in a research environment using Python as an example programming language (see detailed learning objectives). The core set of skills we teach is not a comprehensive set of all-encompassing skills, but a selective set of tried-and-tested collaborative development skills that forms a firm foundation for continuing on your learning journey.

Health Sciences Data Carpentry
Health Sciences Data Carpentry
Fundamental Data Skills Workshop. Data Carpentry develops and teaches workshops on the fundamental data skills needed to conduct research. Its target audience is researchers who have little to no prior computational experience, and its lessons are domain specific, building on learners' existing knowledge to enable them to quickly apply skills learned to their own research. Participants will be encouraged to help one another and to apply what they have learned to their own research problems.
