Data Management Practices for Successful Researchers
(Workshop for PhD students and Postdocs)
Data is critical to research. And managing your data is critical to the success of your research and your career. From the moment you conceive of a
research project, there are management issues about your data that you need to be aware of. Here are just a few of the questions this session will
address:
- What counts as data?
- Who owns your data? Who can use? For what purposes?
- How should data be stored? For how long? In what format?
- How much of your data do you need to make available to other researchers?
- What do funding agencies require?
These questions will be addressed by representatives of the libraries and of Research Compliance who will be available to answer your questions.
