Maturity Model for Pathogen Data Platforms

5 July 2024

BY-COVID Event

Maturity models are a useful tool to support data platform managers in assessing current gaps in their maturity and development lifecycle. The Pathogen Data Platform maturity model specifically targets managers of data platforms that host on pathogens, and associated, contextual sensitive, personal metadata. It was developed within ELIXIR-CONVERGE and tested in a pilot run within BY-COVID. It is very largely inspired from the maturity model of the Federated EGA.

During this highly interactive workshop, generally addressed to platform managers and those involved in platform development (bioinformaticians, ITs, legal services etc.), we will present practical illustrations of how to understand and score the various indicators of the maturity model, with examples focusing on SARS-CoV-2, bacterial, and wastewater data. We will also discuss the importance of ensuring FAIRness of platforms by design and how maturity models can support this.
