    Know Your Data – Research Data Management (RDM)
    Vol. 3 No. 1 (2021)

     

    Research data management (RDM) is a crucial part of any research. First and foremost, the aim of RDM is to make the research process as efficient as possible. Second, RDM will help you meet the expectations and requirements of your organisation and research funders. RDM skills are fundamental skills for researchers and they apply to everyone who handles data for research projects. By learning RDM, you get to KNOW YOUR DATA!

    In this issue, the University of Helsinki Data Support team introduces the key components of RDM and data management planning (DMP): what they are, why they are important, and where to look for more help with RDMP (research data management planning) issues.

  • Open science annual review 2019
    Vol. 2 No. 1 (2020)

    In many ways, 2019 was an active year in the field of open science. In Finland, the national Open Science Coordination continued its work towards national policies and recommendations. Internationally, the implementation of the ambitious Plan S, sparked by the major European science funders (cOAlition S), was postponed by one year.

    The Open Science Annual Review 2019 is aimed at researchers but it also serves as a good reading list for all people working in science. The annual review is a collection of texts, research articles, reports and policy papers published online during 2019. There are 14 main articles, and in the summaries of the main articles there are more to read.

    The editorial board of the Open Science Annual Review included Markku Roinila, Mika Holopainen, Kimmo Koskinen, Pauli Assinen and Juuso Ala-Kyyny. We thank Mikael Laakso for the consultation in both annual and semi-annual reviews.
