Research Data Management I: The Basics and Data Management Plans
May 29, 2024
4:00pm – 5:00pm PT
Summary
Are you creating or managing research data? This one-hour hands-on workshop (https://ubc-library-rc.github.io/rdm) will provide an overview of data management topics, including file organization, formatting, and naming, creating README files, basic data security and backups, and tools for collaborating with others in the lab. In the second half of the workshop, we will run through the components of a good Data Management Plan (DMP) and introduce the DMP Assistant – an online (and UBC-customized) Canadian software tool for crafting Data Management Plans for the TriAgencies and other funders, such as CFI or NIH.
