The project “PROMI – PhD inclusive” cordially invites all PhD enthusiasts, PhD students and PhD students with disabilities/chronic physical/mental illnesses to the first open digital network meeting on October 8, 2021 from 09:00 to 13:30. The meeting will be in German.
The network meeting offers space for exchange about the challenges of doing a PhD with disabilities or chronic illnesses. It will provide insight into helpful experiences and resources, and the opportunity to network with other doctoral candidates, doctoral students, and doctoral graduates with disabilities/chronic physical/mental illnesses.
On the program:
Good to know – resources, places to go, and information about pursuing a doctorate with disabilities and impairments.
Networking and exchange opportunities
Discussion on typical challenges of doing a PhD (with disabilities).
How much of a visionary is in you? Find out how to develop a product for a specific target group with the help of an empathetic mindset. In interactive sessions with other researchers, you will put yourself in the shoes of a user and work towards formulating a vision statement for a product or service. The online workshop is tailored to PhDs of all disciplines who want to gain an entrepreneurial perspective on their research.
The Lindau Guidelines aim for an open, cooperative science community where data and knowledge are freely shared. The goals are ambitious, and their implementation can be achieved through different methods. The goals have been discussed, amended and refined, and were released after the Online Science Days in June 2020.
The registration of the online RTG 2498 workshop “Scientists in Leadership” on 19 & 26 October, 2021 (9:00 am to 5:00 pm) presented by Dr. Gaby Schilling Coaching is now open to RTG-external participants. A few free spots are still available. Please register at the following website:
There is plenty of Research Data in Biological and Chemical Research, but sometimes it is not published or trapped in bad supplemental data. If instead data is open and public, it can be re-used to generate further insights or to develop and validate bioinformatics approaches. While generic research data repositories exist, it is really the Open Data in discipline-specific Repositories and Databases that maximises the re-usability. Finally, making data FAIR and Open should not be an afterthought, instead generating good and FAIR data should be baked right into the standard operating procedures in the lab.
Please ask specific questions via Etherpad form before the webinar. These will be answered during the webinar.
In the first part of the webinar the Open Science Team – ULB will present the publications services at the ULB. In the second part, other important issues to consider when publishing your results such as legal aspects, data ownership, rights management and licensing attribution of your research outputs will also be discussed. Attend this seminar if you want to inform yourself about these important issues but also if you wish to learn more about current affairs. We’ll be reporting on: the state of the DEAL negotiations, the different publication modalities offered by publishing companies, what is predatory publishing, and what you need to know when publishing in Internet and via social media. Don’t miss this chance to ask all your questions to our experts! Please ask specific questions via Etherpad form before the webinar. These will be answered during the webinar.
The aim of this webinar is to address the most important data protection aspects in the context of research and academic projects. In collaboration with colleagues from the legal department of the MLU an overview of the legal framework of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other basic regulations will be offered. The Open Science Team – ULB will also provide advice on how to anonymize or pseudonymize quantitative and qualitative datasets, and some practical examples on how to write a consent forms for projects in which interview data are planned. Join us in this webinar and take the opportunity to ask any questions you may have on these matters. Please ask specific questions via Etherpad form before the webinar. These will be answered during the webinar.
Whether you are an experienced postdoc or a PhD student going through the first stages of your research project this webinar will help you understand the crucial concepts of research data management (RDM) and identify common problems and hurdles in scientific practice.
What is FAIR data,
what are the current funders’ requirements regarding RDM in Germany and Europe, and
what are the benefits of a good research data management strategy
are some of the topics that will be covered. Whilst Open Science Team – ULB will provide an overview of the RDM activities and support offered at the MLU and other institutions, your views on RDM are very important to us too. So feel free to join the discussion on this day. Please ask specific questions via Etherpad form before the webinar. These will be answered during the webinar.
Join this first webinar to explore the main concepts and learn more about Open Science, Open Data and why this is important. Use this chance to let the Open Science Team – ULB know what are your requirements and the areas where you may need support. We will take time to discuss these topics but also to outline the different levels of support and activities in the research landscape in Halle. Please ask specific questions via Etherpad form before the webinar. These will be answered during the webinar.
