The Infrastructure for Integration in Structural Sciences (I2S2) Project is pleased to announce a half-day workshop exploring research data management challenges in a range of contexts. This workshop, entitled Data Infrastructure Challenges: Working across Scale, Disciplinary and Institutional Boundaries, will take place on 5 May 2011 at the University of Leicester.
The half-day workshop will examine data integration and interoperability across different degrees of scale (from local laboratory to national data service to large-scale facility such as Diamond and ISIS), data flows between disciplines, and data exchange across and within institutional boundaries. There will be a particular focus on demonstrating the cost-benefits of effective data management and the relevance of different roles within organisations. A programme of expert speakers will share the experiences and outcomes from a range of pioneering JISC-funded projects, followed by panel discussion.
Full programme and registration details can be found on the I2S2 events page.
This workshop is to be co-located with the 6th Research Data Management Forum.
