Third Advanced User Meeting of Coscine.nrw
Research data management faces the challenge of designing effective and user-friendly processes that meet the needs of different disciplines. How can the requirements in Coscine for storage space requests in the Coscine JARDS review process be optimized to ensure both quality and efficiency? This is precisely where the third user meeting of Coscine.nrw comes in. In this follow-up report, we summarize the most important topics and results of the meeting and provide insights into the discussions, group work, and future steps to improve the range of services.

Coscine was also represented with a poster at this year’s Conference on Research Data Infrastructure (CoRDI). The poster showcased Coscine’s participation in the European FAIR-IMPACT Support program, which assists research data infrastructures in implementing the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable). In this article, you will find all the information you need about Coscine and the FAIR-IMPACT Support program.
RDM Platform Coscine – More Than Free Quota
Source: Coscine
On 25 August 2025, an online workshop on Coscine will take place from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. The research data platform supports researchers in managing their data in a structured manner, creating projects and storing data securely – and much more than just storage space.
In the workshop, which is part of the modular advanced training series RDM II, participants will learn in a practical way how they can use Coscine to make research data findable, accessible and sustainable in accordance with the FAIR criteria (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable).
The workshop is aimed at doctoral candidates, postdocs and research assistants who would like to deepen their knowledge of research data management.
Prerequisite is basic knowledge of research data management, which can be acquired, for example, in the Moodle course ‘Research Data Management – an Overview (RDM I – online)’.
Participation is free of charge. Registration is via the RWTH Single Sign-On or externally. The access link will be sent by email approximately three days before the event begins.
Accessibility is guaranteed. If you require assistance, please contact veranstaltungsmanagementpe@rwth-aachen.de.
Further information about the event can be found on the RDM website of RWTH Aachen University.
