Virtual - Microsoft TeamsJoin the Queen’s Data Champions (qDC) in a virtual panel, moderated by Dr. Betsy Donald, Associate Vice-Principal Research and SSHRC Leader, that explored Research Data Management in Practice.
The goal of the panel was 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.
