192 +==== 1. Start early ====
168 168  
169 -The Human Data Gateway (HDG) was introduced in February 2021 as a response to the needs of multiple data providers who are bringing human subject data to EBRAINS. HDG covers the sharing of strongly pseudonymized or de-identified data, a limited range human subject data without direct identifiers and with very few indirect identifiers.
194 +It is not necessary to wait until you are ready to publish to register your model with EBRAINS.
170 170  
171 -The HDG adds an an authentication layer on top of the data. This means that **data users **must request access to the data (via their EBRAINS account) and will receive access provided they actively accept the [[EBRAINS Access Policy>>https://ebrains.eu/terms#access-policy]], the [[EBRAINS General Terms of Use>>https://ebrains.eu/terms#general-terms-of-use]], and the [[EBRAINS Data Use Agreement>>https://ebrains.eu/terms#data-use-agreement]]. The account holder also have to accept that information about their request and access to specific data under HDG is being tracked and stored. **Data owners** must be aware that sharing under the HDG affects the legal responsibilities for the data. They must agree to joint control of the data (see the [[Data Provision Protocol v1>>url:https://strapi-prod.sos-ch-dk-2.exo.io/EBRAINS_Data_Provision_Protocol_dfe0dcb104.pdf]], section 1.4 - 1.5) and the Data Protection Officers of the responsible institutions must have accepted that the data can be shared under HDG.
196 +By registering a model early in your project, you can take advantage of EBRAINS tools

199 +==== 2. Create/choose a Collab workspace ====
174 174  
201 +We use EBRAINS Collaboratory "collab" workspaces to help manage the model curation process.
175 175  
176 -----
203 +In particular, we use collab membership (the "Team") to control who can view or edit your model metadata prior to publication.
177 177  
178 -=== Step by Step - Models ===
205 +It is up to you whether you create a new collab for each model, or reuse an existing collab
206 +(it is no problem to have multiple models associated with a single collab).
179 179  
208 +Collabs are also useful for storing simulation results, adding documentation for your model,
209 +and/or providing tutorials in Jupyter notebooks.
180 180  
181 -~1. Request curation using the [[Curation request form>>https://nettskjema.no/a/277393#/]]. You will be contacted by a curator with more information.
211 +==== 3. Upload code ====
182 182  
213 +We recommend storing model code and/or configuration files in an online Git repository, for example on GitHub.
214 +This repository should be public when you publish the model, but a private repository can be used for model development.
183 183  
184 -//Additional information will be added soon.//
216 +Alternatively, you can upload code to the Collab Drive or Bucket storage.
185 185

218 +==== 4.Submit metadata ====
187 187  
188 -=== Step by Step - Software ===
220 +We recommend submitting metadata using the Model Catalog app, installed in your collab.

222 +To install it:
191 191  
192 -~1. Fill in the [[request form>>https://www.ebrains.eu/tools/ebrains-curation-request-form]]. You'll be contacted by a curator with further instructions. In these instructions, you will find the links to your software and software version entries in the Knowledge Graph.
224 +1. click the "+ Create" button
225 +1. in the "Create Page" form, add a title, such as "Model Catalog", and select "Community App", then click "Create"
226 +1. scroll down until you find the "Model Catalog" app, click "Select", then "Save & View"
193 193  
194 -2. Enter the metadata of your software in your private space of the [[Knowledge Graph Editor>>url:https://editor.kg.ebrains.eu/]] by using the links provided by the curator. Please provide the metadata for your software as complete as possible. This makes it easier for users to find and use your software. If you have questions feel free to contact the curation support. After you have finished editing your entries, please let the curators know by replying to your ticket. We curate your metadata and get back to you, if necessary.
228 +You will then see a table of all the models and validation tests associated with this collab.
229 +If this is your first time using the app, the table will probably be empty.
230 +To add your model, click "+", fill in the form, then click "Add model".
195 195  
196 -3. After a quality check, we integrate and publish the information to the Knowledge Graph. Your software is then searchable and usable for the neuroscience community.
232 +As development of your model proceeds, you can easily register new versions of the code,
233 +and new parameterizations, by clicking "Add new version".
197 197  
198 -If you want to add a new version to an already curated software, please request this via the [[curation request form>>https://nettskjema.no/a/277393]].

219 -== **The curation team: meet the curators** ==
220 220  
221 -The EBRAINS curators help researchers publish their research using the EBRAINS Research Infrastructure. A curator’s job is similar to the job of an editor of a scientific journal, checking the data is organized, understandable, accessible and sufficiently described.
261 +Curators will then perform a number of checks:
222 222  
223 -The curators in EBRAINS are located in Oslo, Jülich, Trier and Paris. 
224 -
263 +1. Does the model description provide sufficient context to understand the purpose and use of the model?
264 +1. Does the code repository contain a licence file, explaining the conditions for reusing the code?
265 +1. Does the model have a clearly defined version identifier (e.g. v1.0)? For models in a Git repository, the version identifier should match the name of a tag or release.
225 225  
226 -**Located in Norway:**
267 +The curators will also take a snapshot of your model code.

323 +The Human Data Gateway (HDG) was introduced in February 2021 as a response to the needs of multiple data providers who are bringing human subject data to EBRAINS. HDG covers the sharing of strongly pseudonymized or de-identified data, a limited range human subject data without direct identifiers and with very few indirect identifiers.
292 292  
325 +The HDG adds an an authentication layer on top of the data. This means that **data users **must request access to the data (via their EBRAINS account) and will receive access provided they actively accept the [[EBRAINS Access Policy>>https://ebrains.eu/terms#access-policy]], the [[EBRAINS General Terms of Use>>https://ebrains.eu/terms#general-terms-of-use]], and the [[EBRAINS Data Use Agreement>>https://ebrains.eu/terms#data-use-agreement]]. The account holder also have to accept that information about their request and access to specific data under HDG is being tracked and stored. **Data owners** must be aware that sharing under the HDG affects the legal responsibilities for the data. They must agree to joint control of the data (see the [[Data Provision Protocol v1>>url:https://strapi-prod.sos-ch-dk-2.exo.io/EBRAINS_Data_Provision_Protocol_dfe0dcb104.pdf]], section 1.4 - 1.5) and the Data Protection Officers of the responsible institutions must have accepted that the data can be shared under HDG.

The objective of the authors was to provide a set of general recommendations aimed at enhancing the Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability of digital resources (data). They emphasize the importance of making data more open, discoverable, and usable, ultimately facilitating collaboration and knowledge sharing within the scientific community. Today, the FAIR principles are widely recognized and adopted as best practices in data management and stewardship across scientific fields.

374 ->Sharing my data is not beneficial for me - only for others
412 +When you publish your data via EBRAINS, we provide comprehensive data management support and safe long term storage - all free of charge. Additionally, your data can be cited, just like a scientific journal article. Sharing your data may even lead to new funding opportunities. Many funders specifically support projects that are part of the “Open Science” initiative.

416 +No, there is no such thing as insignificant data. Data that is considered insignificant for a given topic, may have great significance for another. By making “insignificant” data publicly available, other researchers may find something interesting that was off-topic for your own purposes.

420 +No, your data will be covered by a Creative Commons license of your choice. There are a variety of licenses available, enabling you to prevent use for specific purposes, e.g. commercial use.

383 383  
384 ->My data can easily be misused if I share it with the world
424 +Yes, if you do not want to share your data before publishing the results in an article, you can publish your dataset with an embargo status. This will make it possible to find information about the data without making the data itself available, and give you a citeable DOI.

387 -Your data will be covered by a Creative Commons license of your choice. There are a variety of licenses available, enabling you to prevent use for specific purposes, e.g. commercial use.
428 +No, publishing your data does not mean that others can use it however they want. Use of your data will require citation, and by choosing an appropriate Creative Commons licence you decide what others are allowed to do with it. If you still feel worried, you can publish your data under embargo, and in this way delay the date of data release, but still make it possible for others to find the information about the data.

392 -Many institutions are still very careful about what can be shared and how, but the situation is constantly evolving. As a researcher providing data, you will be asked to fill out an ethics compliance survey which survey to ensure that data published through the EBRAINS platform has been collected according to EU regulations. We are working on solutions for sharing anonymised human data that complies with GDPR standards to protect the identity of research subjects.

435 +The EBRAINS curators help researchers publish their research using the EBRAINS Research Infrastructure. A curator’s job is similar to the job of an editor of a scientific journal, checking the data is organized, understandable, accessible and sufficiently described.
