iBridges is an open-source project which provides tools to actively work with data stored on iRODS-based systems like Yoda. The tools combine user-friendliness with all features iRODS has to offer (from simple data transfer to metadata manipulation). It can be used to work with data on all iRODS-based platforms and addresses scientists of all backgrounds. iBridges (https://github.com/iBridges-for-iRODS/iBridges) provides: 1) a python package for scientific programmers to integrate their compute pipelines with research data management; 2) a generic graphical interface to iRODS targeting the non-programming scientists; 3) a command line interface for data transfers for data managers and scientists employing scripting languages (R, Matlab etc.).

To attend the trainings in the morning session please make sure that you have a python installation on your laptop. https://www.python.org/downloads/
