The computational infrastructure at IBDC is also made available for researchers interested in performing computational-intensive analysis. Users can contact the data center by submitting their requests at support@ibdc.rcb.res.inDr Jitendra Singh informed that IBDC has started nucleotide data submission services via two data portals viz. the Indian Nucleotide Data Archive INDA and Indian Nucleotide Data Archive - Controlled Access INDA-CA and has accumulated over 200 billion bases from 208055 submissions from more than 50 research labs across India.It also hosts an online Dashboard for the genomic surveillance data generated by the INSACOG labs httpsinda.rcb.ac.ininsacogstatisticsinsacog. The dashboard provides customized data submission access data analysis services and real-time SARS-CoV-2 variant monitoring across India. Data submission and access portals for other data types are under development and would be launched shortly.Fundamentally IBDC is committed to the spirit of data sharing as per FAIR Findable Accessible Interoperable and Reusable principles. IBDC is being developed in a modular fashion wherein different sections would typically deal with particular types of life science data.The computational infrastructure at IBDC is also made available for researchers interested in performing computational intensive analysis. Users can contact the data center by submitting their requests at support@ibdc.rcb.res.in. Further IBDC conducts regular workshops and orientations httpsibdc.rcb.res.innews-and-announcement to assist users in submitting the data. Video tutorials for data submission to IBDC are also available at the data center website. The data center team can also be contacted at support@ibdc.rcb.res.in for scheduling of any workshop on data submissionanalysis.
