Love Data Week 2025 is right around the corner. We took a look at the national program and rounded up our favorite events for you. Join us from February 10 to 14, 2025, fall in love with your research data all over again, and refresh your RDM knowledge!
Research Data Management Education – Optimize Your Research Data Management!

The amount of data generated is growing rapidly, and is the need to efficiently manage, share, and preserve it for the long term. Effective Research Data Management (RDM) ensures that your research results are traceable and can be used by other scientists.
RDM is an integral part of good scientific practice and can have a significant impact on the success of your projects. To support you in this important area, RWTH Aachen University offers a flexible continuing education program in RDM.
Fall In Love With Coscine – Love Data Week 2025

From February 10 to 14, 2025, the Love Data Week (LDW) will be celebrated across Germany – the perfect opportunity to finally give our secret passion for research data the shine it deserves. Under the motto “Whose Data Is It, Anyway?”, this year is all about questioning the control over our data with a pinch of curiosity. As in previous years, Coscine will once again be taking part – this year with two workshops!

2024 was another exciting year for research data management (RDM). At RWTH Aachen University and beyond, numerous events, new initiatives and exciting developments have further advanced RDM. It was a year full of innovations, challenges and inspiring encounters. Let’s take a look at the highlights of the past year!
This Was the Data Stewardship Goes Germany Workshop 2024

This year’s TU9 workshop for data stewards took place from September 11 to 12, 2024 at RWTH Aachen University. The two-day workshop provided an opportunity to exchange ideas on research data management in science and technology, with a particular focus on the role of data stewards. In this article we look back on two successful and instructive days.
Automating (Meta)Data Transfer to Coscine
Source: Own illustration
If you attended our courses on the research data management platform Coscine and Metadata, you know we need to securely store our data and annotate them with meaningful metadata and that Coscine can help you here. You probably also know doing that by hand can be tedious. Let’s automate it!
In this course, we will use a Jupyter Notebook to create Python script for automated data transfer in a step-by-step process. We will interact with the Coscine projects and resources using the Coscine Python SDK. In the end, you will have the foundations to create your own scripts to automate your data workflows, enabling you to transfer data and metadata from a local computer or server to Coscine.
This event is part of a series of in-depth modules on research data management (RDM II – modular). The basics on research data management are covered by the Moodle course “Überblick zum Management von Forschungsdaten (FDM I-online)” / “Research Data Management – an Overview (RDM I – online)“. Please use this course as introduction to Research Data Management.

RDM platform Coscine – more than free quota!
Source: Own illustration
Contemporary research involves conscious research data management (RDM) with the aim of generating high-quality research data and keeping it sustainably (re)usable, i.e. findable, accessible and understandable (FAIR-criteria). The RDM platform Coscine – Collaborative Scientific Integration Environment—supports you in this and helps you meet the requirements of research funders and comply with Good Research Practice.
This event is part of a series of in-depth modules on RDM (FDM II – modular). The basics on RDM are covered by the Moodle course “Research Data Management – an Overview (RDM I – online)”. Please use this course as introduction to RDM.
Learn about the RDM platform Coscine with all its features. Understand how Coscine supports you in making research data FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) and in meeting the expectations of research funders.
Metadata Basics and Creating Application Profiles for Coscine

Meaningful and machine-readable metadata are a prerequisite for high-quality and sustainable research data that can be used effectively in line with FAIR principles. Without metadata, research data are worthless. Therefore, meaningful and machine-readable metadata are a prerequisite for high-quality and sustainable research data that can be used effectively. Furthermore, they are a core element of FAIR data (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable).
The research data management platform Coscine allows you to annotate research data with metadata that is suitable for your research. Coscine already provides you with basic application profiles for this purpose. In this workshop, you will learn how to extend these profiles or create your own ones with the help of the Metadata Profile Generator in Coscine.

That Was the Young Academics Day 2024

On September 5, 2024, it was that time again: the RWTH Young Academics Day (YAD) for young academics took place in the SuperC of RWTH Aachen University. PhD students and postdocs at RWTH were invited to network, exchange ideas and reflect on their own career paths and decisions through inspiring lectures, as well as to be inspired by the services offered by RWTH. The RDM team from RWTH was also there to present the services of research data management (RDM) at the “marketplace”.
