Detailed Research Data Management Practices (One-Day Workshop in English)
What is research data management? Why should I deal with research data management at all? And what does FAIR have to do with research data management?
Data are an essential part of almost any research and thus are of inestimable value to every scientist. No matter if it’s a small sample or „Big Data“ - they need to be deliberately and systematically handled. In the context of good scientific practice, research data management is a requirement both for reproducibility of scientific research and for data reuse.
Without research data management, the traceability of data collection and analysis is, however, often difficult and time-consuming. An effective way to ensure structured handling of data and tracking of the results is to create a data management plan (DMP). Using a DMP is beneficial during planning of a project, but also in later stages. Furthermore, funding institutions now require a data management plan or a statement on the handling of research data in research proposals.
The workshop will show you hands-on how to implement research data management practices and how it can be supported by tools and services of the TU Dresden by creating a DMP in order to increase the quality of your data and results. Topics include the description of data with metadata, personal and collaborative data management, archiving and the publication of research data.
So, bring your own data and work directly on your data, documents, folders, etc. to take the first (or second or third) steps in your data management. Your individual RDM solutions will be recorded in the DMP, giving you a reference that you can access at any time when it comes to the reproducibility of your research.
Participants will have to bring along their laptops.
