Planning research data
What is research data?
Research data are 'data that are generated during scientific activity (e.g. through measurements, surveys, source work), on the basis of which scientific work can be carried out (e.g. digital copies) or document the result of scientific work [...].' forschungsdaten.info
Research data are, for example
- Sources: Texts, images, audio recordings, films/videos
- Observations: Real-time data, examination data
- Experiments: Laboratory values, spectrograms
- Simulations: Simulation measurements, model measurements
- References: Collection of previously published data sets
- Methodological test procedures, such as questionnaires, software or simulations
New walk-in consultation hours for all researchers
Data stewards are now offering a walk-in consultation hour for all researchers at the University of Bern and Inselspital every Monday during the lecture period from 2 to 4 pm. Whether you are looking for a practical way to organise the data in your project folder, whether you need help developing a data management plan (DMP) for your project or whether you are not sure how to publish your data - just come to our office at Hochschulstrasse 6, room 354 and we will be happy to help you!
