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.

The E-Science Days 2025 took place in Heidelberg from March 12 to March 14, 2025 under the motto ‘Research Data Management: Challenges in a Changing World’. The event offered both online and face-to-face participation and served as an interdisciplinary platform for dialogue on research data management (RDM) and open science.
The diverse programme included many different formats such as lectures, lightning talks, poster sessions and workshops. The keynote speeches and the panel discussion, which highlighted current topics such as ensuring data quality, challenges in data publication and the opportunities and risks of artificial intelligence (AI) in RDM, attracted particular attention.
In this blog series, we take you on a journey through three eventful days, which the RDM team at RWTH Aachen University was able to experience intensively.
