Description
Research Data Management and the FAIR principles are becoming science policy mainstream. They are increasingly demanded on different levels by decision makers, funders and research institutions alike.
Yet, many scientific communities still lack established conventions, guidelines and infrastructures for handling research data properly. This makes it difficult for many researchers to implement a sound and practical RDM strategy that fulfils the FAIR principles.
The University of Bonn formed the Research Data Service Center (RDCS) in a move to provide the best possible support to researchers in addressing these challenges. The RDSC offers advice, training and basic IT services for handling research data.
This presentation gives an overview on the dynamically evolving RDM landscape in Europe and Germany and presents the current and planned support infrastructure for researchers at Bonn University.
