许多举措满足了全球提高生物学家生物信息学工具和技术技能的需求。澳大利亚对此类培训的要求并不独特，但由于其幅员辽阔、人口相对较少且地理分散，澳大利亚面临着特殊的挑战。作者采用了组合培训方法来克服这些挑战。 “混合”方法将经验丰富的培训师的指导与网络研讨会式授课和课堂上同时进行的面对面实践练习的优点结合起来。自2017年以来，该混合方法已在国际范围内举办了9期生物信息学实践培训课程，超过800名研究人员在一系列软件平台上接受了不同主题的培训。该方法已成为确保在澳大利亚范围内可扩展且更公平地提供短期生物信息学培训的关键工具，并且可以轻松适应其他地点、主题或环境。
Many initiatives have addressed the global need to upskill biologists in bioinformatics tools and techniques. Australia is not unique in its requirement for such training, but due to its large size and relatively small and geographically dispersed population, Australia faces specific challenges. A combined training approach was implemented by the authors to overcome these challenges. The “hybrid” method combines guidance from experienced trainers with the benefits of both webinar-style delivery and concurrent face-to-face hands-on practical exercises in classrooms. Since 2017, the hybrid method has been used to conduct 9 hands-on bioinformatics training sessions at international scale in which over 800 researchers have been trained in diverse topics on a range of software platforms. The method has become a key tool to ensure scalable and more equitable delivery of short-course bioinformatics training across Australia and can be easily adapted to other locations, topics, or settings.
