Tales from the Trenches: Research Data Management in Practice

Date

Wednesday April 12, 2023
12:00 pm - 1:30 pm

Location

Virtual - Microsoft Teams

Join the Queen’s Data Champions (qDC) in a virtual panel, moderated by Dr. Betsy Donald, Associate Vice-Principal Research and SSHRC Leader, that will explore “Tales from the Trenches: Research Data Management in Practice” 

The goal of the panel is to provide Queen's University researchers with a forum to learn about various journeys in research data management (RDM) and to share lessons learned, promote best practices in RDM and build community and collaboration at Queen’s. The panel is aptly timed after the recent release of the Tri-Agency RDM Policy and increasing interest in enhancing RDM support and resources at Queen’s.

About Queen’s Data Champions

The Queen’s Data Champions (qDC) is one of eighteen groups across Canada to receive funding from the Digital Research Alliance of Canada  as part of the Data Champions Pilot Project . The project aims to encourage a shift in research data culture by promoting sound research data management (RDM) practices. The qDC team includes five experts from across the university, working together to create and develop RDM learning resources for the Queen’s research community. The qDC includes:  

  • Alicia Cappello, Engineering & Science Librarian, Queen’s University Library 
  • Elise Degen, Communications & Relations, Centre for Advanced Computing 
  • Matt Clapp, Manager of Data Platform Services, Information Technology Services 
  • Meghan Goodchild, Research Data Management Librarian, Queen’s University Library / Scholars Portal 
  • Rebecca Pero, Information & Project Coordinator, Vice-Principal Research Portfolio) 

The 3-part Brown Bag RDM Information series, led by the Queen’s Data Champions (Fall 2022 and Winter 2023), was created with the goal to spread awareness and provide support to the Queen’s community. View slides and recordings from previous RDM sessions.
