Led by Ian Badger (Kent) and Helen Webb (Sussex), this
workshop will introduce key aspects of managing, sharing and reusing research
data.
Attendees will explore why and how research data can be
shared, including considerations around ethics, consent and confidentiality,
and copyright and the use of existing data resources. The workshop will also
cover practical aspects of good data management, including data description,
contextualisation and documentation; data formats and software; and data
storage, back-up and security.
We will also consider the requirements of research funders
and journals, and offer practical tips for both sharing your own research data
and finding existing data for use in research.
By the end of the workshop, attendees will have a better
understanding of good research data management practices and the key
considerations involved in storing, documenting, sharing and reusing research
data.
