- Running and overseeing research
definition: |-
All research that involves data from individuals must get approval from an authorised body. For research with NHS data, for example, this would be the NHS Research Ethics Committee (REC). Approvals committees often include both researchers and members of the public, and their job is to make sure that the research is planned and conducted in a fair and ethical way and that it benefits the public.

Structured data is organised and formatted using pre-defined rules, so that computational analysis is easier. For example, structured data is often stored as tables in a database where each column represents a different type of information (like numbers or words), and each cell in the table holds a single piece of data. This organisation helps with sorting, searching, and understanding the data more easily.

- term: Workflow
tags:
- Computing
definition: |-
Specifically a computational workflow is a set of chained operations used to carry out a particular analysis or other computational task. Workflows simplify complex sequences of activities and enable researchers to automate and track the provenance of the work in workflow execution. Workflows can often be visualised as a network or tree of operations.
