Research data management (RDM) is a central topic in modern science that goes far beyond the mere collection and storage of data. It encompasses all processes that are necessary to securely collect, store and analyze data and make it usable in the long term. At RWTH Aachen University, a clear guideline and a structured infrastructure around the data lifecycle for RDM is provided, enabling researchers to manage their data sustainably and follow the principles of good scientific practice.

Researchers face the daily challenge of efficiently managing and accessing large amounts of data. Nowadays, data management goes beyond simple storage. According to the FAIR principles, research data should be easy to find (Findable), accessible (Accessible), interoperable (Interoperable) and reusable (Reusable). This is exactly where Coscine (Collaborative Scientific Integration Environment) comes in – a platform that supports researchers throughout the data lifecycle.
But what exactly does that mean? Let’s take a look at the structure of Coscine and explain step by step how the platform for research data management (RDM) works.
