Materials from SciLifeLab Research Data Management Roadshow in Göteborg 2025

This item contains presentation slides shown during the SciLifeLab Research Data Management (RDM) Roadshow that took place in Göteborg, Sweden, on May 20-21, 2025 (https://www.scilifelab.se/event/data-management-in-life-science-2/).

Event description:

The RDM Roadshow event was a collaborative effort between SciLifeLab Göteborg and the SciLifeLab Data Management Support team, which comprises data stewards from the SciLifeLab Data Centre and the National Bioinformatics Infrastructure Sweden (NBIS). The aim of this event was to raise awareness about the RDM services offered by SciLifeLab, foster connections with local infrastructures, and equip life science researchers, data stewards, technical staff, and infrastructure experts with practical knowledge on managing, sharing, and protecting research data in alignment with FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) principles and Open Science practices.

Target group:

PhD students, postdocs, researchers, and infrastructure staff.

Presentations in this item:

Good Data Management Practices - Available services and support: An open lecture introduced participants to available services and support structures at both local and national levels.
