Research data management (RDM) has become increasingly important in recent years. Universities are called upon to support their members in this process. Researchers, faculty, and students are confronted with numerous questions ranging from the definition of terms to data publication and the implementation of FAIR-compliant data management. Our “Research Data Day @ BUA” on October 21, 2026, offers you the opportunity to present your own RDM-related approaches and practices from your research context during a poster session, engage in conversation with colleagues, and identify similar challenges and potential solutions
Possible topics for your poster:
- (Sustainable) use, publication, and archiving of research data
- RDM tools and workflows in project contexts
- Implementation of FAIR principles
- RDM and Open Science / Open Research in practice
- Data quality
- Data ethics
- Data-type-specific RDM
- Legal issues
- Aspects of documentation and description of research data
- Visualization, technology, and infrastructure approaches
- Discipline-specific aspects of handling research data
- AI in RDM
- RDM literacy: embedding competencies in research groups and projects, preserving knowledge
- Creation Processes and Provenance of Research Data
- Rights, Licenses, and Reuse
- RDM in Teaching
- RDM in Collaborative Projects
- RDM Guidelines and Policies; Agreements on the Handling of Research Data
We also welcome other RDM-related topics from your professional practice!
