  4. FDM-Workshop „Kompetenz Forschungsdatenmanagement in der MPG“

  5. und 6. Mai 2021 I online

  

  Forschungsdatenmanagement erlebt seit einigen Jahren eine große Beachtung. Beispiele hierfür sind die Entwicklung der Nationalen Forschungsdateninfrastruktur (NFDI), der baldige Start der European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) und die zunehmende Relevanz von FDM-Aspekten bei Drittmittelanträgen. Diese komplexen Entwicklungen im Forschungsdatenmanagement betreffen auch die Max-Planck-Gesellschaft. Neben den technischen Voraussetzungen ist eine kontinuierliche Kompetenzentwicklung aller Beteiligten ein wesentlicher Aspekt für das Bestehen im wissenschaftlichen Wettbewerb. Diesen Aspekt werden wir eine besondere Aufmerksamkeit widmen.

  Weitere Information sind auf der Workshop-Website.
