MONTHLY ROUND-UP: SEPTEMBER 2021

The Sep­tem­ber round-up from 4TU.ResearchData brings a new semes­ter, new pub­lished datasets, new com­mu­ni­ty mem­bers, a new FAIR Data Fund and our next com­mu­ni­ty call!

News

  • Wel­come to our new com­mu­ni­ty mem­bers!
  • Mak­ing waves with WiFi data

Uni­ver­si­ty of Twente PhD researcher, Jeroen Klein Brinke, explains how wire­less sens­ing tech­nol­o­gy can be used to pro­vide health­care for the elder­ly.

His dataset, Chan­nel state infor­ma­tion (WiFi traces) for 6 activ­i­ties, has been down­loaded more than 1000 times and was one of our top down­loaded datasets in March this year. 

Read more about Jeroen’s moti­va­tions to pub­lish his research data and the promise of wire­less sens­ing tech­nol­o­gy to ben­e­fit soci­ety.

  • Microlec­tures on Research Data Man­age­ment: The Bach­e­lor’s edi­tion

Research data man­age­ment mat­ters!

The Uni­ver­si­ty of Twente has cre­at­ed a series of microlec­tures to edu­cate Bachelor’s stu­dents about how to man­age their data through­out their stud­ies.

Based on 5 sim­ple ques­tions, all aspects of RDM are addressed in fun, short and engag­ing online record­ings!

Read more about how data stew­ard, Judith Brands and her col­leagues cre­at­ed the microlec­tures and pub­lished them online.

  • FAIR Data Fund 2021 — Autumn call for appli­ca­tions Opens 1st Octo­ber!

A max­i­mum bud­get of €3.500 is avail­able to researchers at TU Delft, TU Eind­hoven and the Uni­ver­si­ty of Twente to cov­er the costs of mak­ing their research data Find­able, Acces­si­ble, Inter­op­er­a­ble and Reusable (The FAIR Data Prin­ci­ples).

Appli­ca­tions open on Fri­day 1st Octo­ber and close on Mon­day 1st Novem­ber 2021.

Read more about the fund, meet our Spring call grantees and con­tact FAIRdatafund@4tu.nl for more infor­ma­tion.
