DESCRIPTION:## Overview\nThe FAIR (Findable\, Accessible\, Interoperable an
 d Reusable) principles provide guidelines for making research data and oth
 er resources more easily discoverable and reusable\, which can help increa
 se your research's impact and exposure. Adhering to these principles also 
 ensures that your research is more reliable and reproducible\, as others c
 an more easily access and provide feedback. In addition\, making your rese
 arch FAIR can promote the principles of open science and make it easier fo
 r others to contribute to and build upon your work. Finally\, many funding
  agencies and journals now expect that your research outputs be made FAIR 
 as a condition of funding or publication\, so adhering to these principles
  can help to ensure that your research meets these requirements.\n\nSharin
 g and reusing data\, software\, and documentation is essential to the FAIR
  principles and should be a routine task for scientists. Researchers can a
 chieve this by providing all necessary information (data\, software and pa
 rameters used\, scripts for the analysis\, databases and their versions) a
 nd using markdown to create a single file that can be easily shared as a w
 eb page.\n\n## Audience\nThis course is designed for PhD students\, postdo
 ctoral and other researchers and trainers in the life sciences from both a
 cademia and industry who want to learn how to make their research and trai
 ning FAIRer with reproducible notebooks and websites.\n\n## Learning outco
 mes\nIn this course\, participants will learn tools and concepts to take s
 ignificant steps towards adhering to the FAIR principles\, which will enha
 nce the benefits of sharing and collaboration in research. More specifical
 ly\, at the end of the course\, participants should be able to:\n* Create 
 notebooks and websites based on Markdown\, and Python or R with Quarto\n* 
 Use Git and GitHub to version control the generated content\n* Host a webs
 ite by making use of GitHub actions and GitHub pages\n* Link the GitHub re
 pository to Zenodo and give it a unique identifier (DOI)\n\n## Prerequisi
 tes\n##### Knowledge / competencies\nThis course is designed for users hav
 ing an introductory level in programming with R or Python. \n\nTo get the 
 most out of this course\, participant should meet the learning outcomes of

 e/FSWRR) or the [First Steps with Python in Life Sciences](https://www.sib
 .swiss/training/course/FSWPY) courses.\n\n##### Technical\nParticipants sh
 ould have a GitHub account and have accesss to a computer with either the 
 latest versions of RStudio or VSCode pre-installed.\n\n## Application\nThe
