Human Genomics data sharing is an increasingly complex task. Researchers need to juggle legal, ethical and intellectual requirements, along with publishing and funding responsibilities. Although the majority of researchers want to do the right thing, navigating the maze of data, tool, workflow and protocol repositories; software, protocol, metadata and infrastructure standards is not an easy task. Let alone staying up to date with major genome projects and support agencies that can help them on their quest. The Human ‘Omics Data Sharing Field Guide seeks to provide a comprehensive resource that gathers together essential information on a broad range of topics to help Australian researchers on their genomics data sharing journey.
