DCN-39: “Data repository for: In vitro evolution of herpes simplex virus 1(HSV-1)”, a biochemistry genomic dataset, was submitted to the DCN by Seth Erickson and curated by Sarah Wright.

Seth submitted this dataset to the DCN for technical expertise and Sarah was the best fit.

Sarah reported that this was a good-quality dataset and her recommendations were primarily related to expanding the dataset’s documentation. However, no additional curation actions were taken by the data author.

The purpose of this Dataset Digest series of blog posts is to keep our followers informed and up to date on the curation activities of the DCN! These weekly updates will summarize datasets that have been curated by the network. Once a dataset is “finalized” (curation is complete, any necessary updates or changes have been made, and the dataset has been made publicly available via the local partner repository) we add it to our website and include it in our weekly digest. Thank you for following our progress!
