Data Management
As part of guaranteeing the integrity of your research, you are required to deposit the data underpinning your research in a data repository, where it can be held securely for at least ten years after the conclusion of the project. But how do you work out which parts of your data will be needed for someone to understand your work? Do you need to deposit everything, or just key parts that will allow others to reproduce your findings? And how do you work out which parts of your data are suitable for sharing?

As part of guaranteeing the integrity of your research, you are required to deposit the data underpinning your research in a data repository, where it can be held securely for at least ten years after the conclusion of the project. But how do you work out which parts of your data will be needed for someone to understand your work? Do you need to deposit everything, or just key parts that will allow others to reproduce your findings? And how do you work out which parts of your data are suitable for sharing?
This session, led by the Research Data Management team, will introduce attendees to issues in selection and appraisal of research data for long-term storage, and in deciding which parts of data can be shared. We will also explain the process for depositing data in the University’s Enlighten: Research Data repository.
This session is open to staff of the University of Glasgow. Graduate Teaching Assistants are welcome to register for the purpose of developing their own teaching practice, but please note that these sessions are not suitable for any students seeking training for their own PhD research projects.
