<h1>Background</h1>

</div>
90+
91+
<p class="lead">We know that there is a huge amount of research which happens which is
92+
relevant to the goals of the OpenWorm project, but is not in an immediately usable/compatible format.
93+
Many researchers/labs may wish to contribute to the project, but the day to day work of
94+
experiments/analysis/publishing take priority.</p>
95+
96+
<p class="lead"><strong>OpenWorm Studentships</strong> are a new way to incentivize contribution
97+
to the project, offering small stipends and recognition to junior researchers who want to spend time bringing their research into the
98+
OpenWorm project and making it more accessible for the wider community.</p>

<h1>Who is this aimed at?</h1>
105+
</div>
106+
107+
<p class="lead">Anyone involved in <i>C. elegans</i> research who has (or whose lab has) produced data,
108+
models or software, which has been publicly released and which would be useful for the OpenWorm project.</p>
109+
110+
<p class="lead">While it's not absolutely necessary that the recipient was personally involved in generating the data, there should be
111+
some connection to those who produced the data, to ensure that any questions about the data and any clarifying queries are
112+
quickly answered during the period of the project. For this reason a PhD student/postdoc in the lab which published the data
113+
would be an ideal candidate for this project.</p>

<div class="page-header">

</div>
121+
122+
<p class="lead">The proposed work should focus on translating <b>existing research outputs</b> to a open formats,
123+
and integrating them with OpenWorm’s resources/repositories/documentation. It is assumed that the model/application/dataset will already be published
124+
(even in preprint form), and the time will be spent in making this as accessible/reusable as possible.</p>
125+
126+
<p class="lead">The Studentship recipient should outline their plans in the application (see below) and if selected, spend 2-3 months
127+
working to incorporate the resources into OpenWorm. They will be assigned a mentor from the project to help ensure the resources are
128+
well integrated with our existing online content.
129+
</p>
130+
131+
<p class="lead">Examples of potential activities include:</p>
132+
133+
<ul>
134+
<li class="lead">Converting datasets from original formats (Excel spreadsheets, MAT files) into more open, standardised forms (e.g. NWB), ideally with rich metadata embedded</li>
135+
<li class="lead">Creating Jupyter notebooks outlining how to explore/analyse data or models</li>
136+
<li class="lead">Adding models/simulation code to GitHub, adding installation/usage documentation, adding continuous integration/testing</li>
137+
<li class="lead">Converting models to standardised NeuroML format</li>
138+
</ul>
139+
140+
<p class="lead">While in exceptional cases an applicant could propose to use data that is not yet released, we fully acknowledge the importance of
141+
getting peer reviewed publications as part of a PhD/postdoc, and these activities should take priority when deciding how/when data
142+
should be released. Given the short timeline for the studentship projects, there is a need to avoid a situation where public release of data
143+
by a lab is held up due to publication delays. Therefore it is best if the data is already in the public domain at the time of application.</p>
