This workshop presents the fundamental principles of data management. For example, it explains how to write a data management plan, as well as how to report, document, store and archive research data for reuse.

The workshop provides both generic and subject-specific requirements, standards and recommendations, as well as information on relevant site-specific RDM services and infrastructures. In addition, we present best practice examples from the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI). Sufficient time is planned for discussions and questions. It is presented by ZB MED – Information Centre for Life Sciences, University of Potsdam and Research Data Management in Brandenburg (FDM-BB).

The workshop is intended for researchers in (bio-) medical sciences with early levels of expertise in research data management.
