RDM and Good Scientific Practice: An Inseparable Connection
Source: Martin Braun
Research data is the backbone of every scientific endeavor. However, the collection, documentation, and publication of research data is only useful if it adheres to the principles of Good Scientific Practice (GSP). These principles ensure scientific integrity and the quality of research. A central component of GSP is the proper handling of research data, which plays an important role in research data management (RDM).
And What Kind of RDM Personality Do You Have?

The world of research data management (RDM) is as diverse as the people who work with it every day. Every approach, every method and every strategy reflects not only the requirements of research, but also the personalities behind it. Have you ever wondered what role you play in this dynamic world? With the humorously designed RDM personality test from FDM-ndsHAW you can find out exactly that!

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.
