Wind of Change – Sharing is Caring: How to Improve Research Data and Its Benefits in the Life Sciences – Feb. 16, 2023

NFDI4Biodiversity, together with other NFDI consortia, is part of the Love Data Week 2023! Join our in-depth panel discussion on the importance of data-based decisions and the challenges and benefits of cultural change in research data governance, open science and FAIR principles.

Contents of the panel discussion

Data-driven decisions in the life sciences have an immense impact on the well-being of humans and the environment, as well as on the development of research directions. Therefore, using best practice examples, experts from different areas of life sciences will discuss the importance of data-based decisions. Expect an in-depth discussion on the challenges and benefits of cultural change related to research data governance, Open Science and FAIR principles, and their impact on the daily life of every individual.

The event is part of the Love Data Week 2023, an international week of action to discuss and reflect on research data together. Under the motto "Data: Agent of Change", Love Data 2023 will be celebrated worldwide from 13-17 February with numerous events on a wide range of research data management (RDM) topics.
