Science & Engineering South – looking for Early Career Researchers’ submissions
By ucylmfe, on 25 May 2016
The Science & Engineering South Consortium (SES) is looking for Early Career Researchers for the first event of its “Data Dialogue” series on the 28th of July (Cambridge). Organisers are currently seeking researchers for lightening talks at the event. Travel expenses will be covered for all speakers. Send your proposal by the 3d of June!
About The Data Dialogue
Researchers are faced throughout their careers with managing research data. Implementing best practice early on can help you to access the right data quickly, but also ensures that data is relevant, reusable and accessible to others, contributing further to scientific research.
Time to Share: Navigating Boundaries and Benefits (July 28th) aims to provide Early Career Researchers from a range of disciplines with the tools and knowledge to better approach their research data needs, covering the benefits of sharing data, how we share difficult and sensitive data, gaining access to restricted, secure, or open data, and what types of repositories are available for use.
Join us at the University of Cambridge to hear from key speakers from the UK’s leading Research Data centres and join a discussion amongst peers with tangible experience in accessing and managing data, sharing their own discipline-specific examples.
Abstracts (max. 200 words) can now be submitted by researchers and academics from SES institutions to give a lightening talk at the event. These talks (approx. 20 minutes) will have a case-study nature and should provide examples of data management hurdles and solutions for projects from any science/engineering discipline. The new deadline for abstracts is the 3d of June 2016.
Further questions should be directed to the event organisers (Sigourney Luz or Dr Marta Teperek).
