„Rent a Data Steward"

The data steward pilot project in Thuringia was launched at the end of 2023. Since the beginning of November, two data stewards have been working at the Jena and Ilmenau campuses to expand the existing advisory services offered by the FDM contact points at Thuringian universities. While the contact points mainly take on an advisory role, for example in the creation of data management plans, the data stewards design and implement concrete solutions in the field of research data management. They work closely with the universities' service and infrastructure providers. Further information about the project and the possibility of booking a data steward for your working group can be found on the websiteExternal link of the Thuringian Competence Network for Research Data Management.
