Register for Research Data Management and Open Science Training in Spring 2022!
Are you confident with processing personal data safely?
Do you know how to write an effective data management plan?
Where and how should you store and share your data?
Understanding proper research data management is becoming more and more important to researchers and students across disciplines. Data management plans are increasingly required by funders, and researchers urgently need data management and open science skills to enhance the impact of their research. Safe ways of processing data are particularly important to those working with personal data or confidential data.
Aalto University Research Data Management Network organises a biannual webinar series on research data management and open science. Some webinars from the previous series will be held again, but we also have some exciting new topics, like:
- How Should Open Software Be Licensed? – A discussion led by Senior Legal Counsel Maria Rehbinder and moderated by Staff Scientist Dr. Richard Darst.
- Responsible conduct of research, questionable research practices... and possible cures
- Introduction to the world of Finnish Registry Data
- ...and a two-day hands-on data anonymisation webinar by Staff Scientist Dr. Enrico Glerean.
(Registration information TBA, check back on our training page for updates.)
In addition, specific aspects of open science and research data management will be discussed, for instance, research data in the visual arts, working with restricted datasets, and current trends in academic publishing.
We recommend everyone to attend our popular Introduction to Research Data Management webinar, which provides a foundation for the rest of the training. All webinars will be held in English using the Zoom platform.

Avatars and genuine interaction
Aalto University’s researchers are contributing to the creation of redesigned maternity and child health clinics and positive childbirth experiences in their research projects. The visions seize the potential of technology, such as childbirth simulation in a 3D-video conference using an avatar, a virtual character. On the other hand, the researchers would also like to hold on to the best practices from the past, such as the traditional child health clinic card, genuine human interaction and the rotina tradition, visits by family and close-ones to meet the newborn and bring foods as a gift.
