• Development of a Data Access Committee 

TU Delft Data Steward from the faculty of Electrical Engineering Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS), Santosh Ilamparuthi, has developed a Data Access Committee to control access to data published under ‘restricted access’ in the 4TU.ResearchData repository. 

Santosh presented his pilot initiative during a Dutch Techcentre for Life Sciences Data Steward Interest group meeting on 8th March.

• Software publishing made easier: An integration between 4TU.Research Data and GitLab

Software development work is currently underway to integrate the 4TU.ResearchData repository with GitLab, an open-source DevOps tool used for collaborative and transparent working among research groups.
