Most open science education resources ask students to use toy datasets or generate data themselves. We do something different: we invite educators and students to work with the same massive, gold-standard datasets our scientists use every day.

National Inst for Interdisciplinary Science (NIIST) · Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala
Our open science resources — from brain cell atlases to immunology datasets and beyond — are designed to be genuinely usable. That means educators can bring authentic research opportunities into the classroom, and students can build the hands-on skills they'll need for careers in science, graduate school, and daily life in a world infused with science.
