OBJECTIVE: Educational offerings to fill the bioinformatics knowledge gap are a key component to enhancing access and use of health data from the All of Us Research Program. We developed a Train the Trainer-based, innovative training series including project-based learning, modular on-demand demonstrations, and unstructured tutorial time as a model for educational engagement in the All of Us community. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We highlight our training modules and content, with training survey data informing cycles of development in the creation of a 6-module training series with modular demonstrations. RESULTS: We have conducted 2 public iterations of the Train the Trainer (Tx3) Series based on survey feedback while training over 300 registered researchers to access and analyze data on the All of Us Researcher Workbench. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: Future directions of the Tx3 Series include enhanced focus on project-based learning and learner requests for modularity and asynchronous materials access.

There are thousands of strongly conserved non-coding elements (CNEs) in vertebrate genomes, and their functions remain largely unknown. However, without biologically relevant criteria for prioritizing them, selecting a particular CNE sequences to study can be haphazard. To address this problem, we present cneViewer-a database and webtool that systematizes information on conserved non-coding DNA elements in zebrafish. A key feature here is the ability to search for CNEs that may be relevant to tissue-specific gene regulation, based on known developmental expression patterns of nearby genes. cneViewer provides this and other organizing features that significantly facilitate experimental design and CNE analysis.
