Research Data

Researchers at the University of Bern and Inselspital can publish research data and metadata in accordance with the FAIR data principles on BORIS Portal. 

  • All datasets on BORIS Portal receive a DOI. 
  • You can create multiple versions of a dataset. Each new version receives its own DOI. 
  • Data can be published on BORIS Portal with open access or various options for controlled access (restricted, closed, embargoed). If you choose controlled access, you can specify a contact person to whom interested parties can submit an access request. 
  • For Open Research Data or open code, specify a usage license (e.g. CC0, CC BY, MIT, GNU GPLv3). A data transfer and use agreement (DTUA) is recommended for data sets with controlled access. 
  • BORIS Portal is registered in re3data and can be used to fulfill the requirements of the SNSF regarding data publication (see list of accepted repositories of the SNSF).
