FAIR data in Science and Engineering

A community event hosted by 4TU.ResearchData

Wednes­day, Decem­ber 7th | 11.30 — 17.00 
Social Impact Fac­to­ry, Utrecht

Wel­come to the event for FAIR data pio­neers!

This event is ded­i­cat­ed to researchers, RDM pro­fes­sion­als, and aca­d­e­mics who strive to make data FAIR in sci­ence and engi­neer­ing. Find your com­mu­ni­ty, and explore FAIR data in sci­ence and engi­neer­ing.

Program:

Pitch & match > 12.30 — 13.45
Mem­bers will pitch projects they need help with or launch a chal­lenge they are try­ing to solve.
Every­body gets 5 min­utes to pitch + 10 min­utes of Q&A. Reg­is­tra­tion is required to sub­mit a pitch.
It will fol­low a selec­tion process based on rel­e­vance (for the whole com­mu­ni­ty), and per­ti­nence to the themes FAIR Data, Data man­age­ment, edu­ca­tion, and com­mu­ni­ty engage­ment.
Reg­is­tra­tions closed.

Break­out ses­sions > 14.00 — 16.45
This activ­i­ty will last 45 min­utes each with 15 min­utes break in betwee.
Ses­sions:

• 14.00 — 14.45 > Dis­cov­er 4TU.ResearchData’s Dje­huty: the open source future of our data repos­i­to­ry
  Host: Roel Janssen, Soft­ware devel­op­er, 4TU.ResearchData Facil­i­ta­tor: Alessan­dra Soro, Com­mu­ni­ty Man­ag­er, 4TU.ResearchData   Dje­huty, the new repos­i­to­ry sys­tem, will be pre­sent­ed for the first time to the com­mu­ni­ty! Roel Janssen, the devel­op­er behind the repos­i­to­ry, will show the sys­tem and its func­tion­al­i­ties in an inter­ac­tive ses­sion. After­ward, par­tic­i­pants will be able to active­ly con­tribute to the devel­op­ment of new func­tion­al­i­ties and make sug­ges­tions to make Dje­huty a tool for the com­mu­ni­ty.
  

• 15.00 — 15.45 > Work­ing groups: shar­ing find­ings and explor­ing new ideas
  Host: Zafer Öztürk, Data Stew­ard FAIR, Uni­ver­si­ty of Twente

There are cur­rent­ly 4 active work­ing groups you can join:

1. FAIR and Repro­ducible Code work­ing group
   Pre­sen­ter: Nico­las Dintzn­er, Data Stew­ard, TU Delft Nico­las will be pre­sent­ing the learn­ing objec­tives of the work­ing group short­ly along with some impor­tant out­puts of the work­ing group. This work­ing group brings data stew­ards togeth­er to learn about use­ful tools; writ­ing, doc­u­ment­ing, and test­ing code; ver­sion con­trol and col­lab­o­ra­tion; pipelines for pro­gram­ming lan­guages; and archiv­ing and licens­ing of soft­ware code.
   
2. Pri­va­cy and GDPR work­ing group.
   Pre­sen­ter: Yan Wang, Data Stew­ard­ship Coor­di­na­tor, TU Delft Yan has been active­ly par­tic­i­pat­ing in this work­ing group and Yan will give a short talk about the work­ing group and fur­ther high­light some impor­tant out­puts This work­ing group brings data stew­ards togeth­er to learn about the best prac­tices for han­dling per­son­al or com­mer­cial­ly sen­si­tive data.
   
3. Engage­ment and Edu­ca­tion work­ing group
   Pre­sen­ter: San­tosh Ilam­paruthi, Data Stew­ard, TU Delft The learn­ing objec­tives and con­crete out­comes of this work­ing group will be intro­duced by San­tosh. This work­ing group brings data stew­ards togeth­er to explore oppor­tu­ni­ties for cross-insti­tu­tion­al col­lab­o­ra­tions to deliv­er edu­ca­tion and train­ing for data sup­port­ers and researchers
   
4. Inter­ac­tive brain­storm­ing
   Host: Zafer Öztürk, Data Stew­ard FAIR, Uni­ver­si­ty of Twente The last part of this break­out ses­sion will be ded­i­cat­ed to the chal­lenges, new ideas that would fit the afore­men­tioned work­ing groups or the cre­ation of pos­si­ble new work­ing groups. Zafer will guide you through this inter­ac­tive last part. We are curi­ous to hear more from you all!
   

• 16.00 — 16.30 > RDM pro­fes­sion­als meet-up
  Hosts: Shau­na Ní Fhlait­hear­ta, Coor­di­na­tor data man­age­ment, WUR                                                    
  Joost Albers, Coor­di­na­tor data stew­ard net­work, WUR
  
  Each insti­tute will exchange infor­ma­tion about its data stew­ard­ship sys­tem and the asso­ci­at­ed oppor­tu­ni­ties and challenges.We will then apply the Com­mu­ni­ty Par­tic­i­pa­tion mod­el to under­stand how each insti­tute address­es these chal­lenges.

Com­mu­ni­ties in the spot­light > 16.30 — 17.00
This is an oppor­tu­ni­ty to dis­cov­er oth­er com­mu­ni­ties in data man­age­ment, FAIR, and Open data. Mem­bers of the com­mu­ni­ties will share their expe­ri­ences and high­light the impor­tance of the role of com­mu­ni­ties in the sci­en­tif­ic land­scape.
Reg­is­tra­tions closed.

Drinks and snacks > 17.00 — 18.30
