Research Data Management Forum (RDMF)

Our biannual Research Data Management Forum events bring together researchers, digital repository managers, staff from library, information and research organisations, data curators, data centre managers, data scientists, research funding organisations and research networks. The events are organised thematically, with a mixture of presentations and breakout and discussion sessions.

Because we limit RDMF workshop numbers to fifty, the events are in-depth and highly interactive sessions. To give you a taste of the topics we’ve discussed previously, past RDMF workshop titles are given below. Click on them to see more details.

You’ll also find details of forthcoming RDMF workshops on this page. Topics under consideration for future workshops include ‘Data and the Research Excellence Framework’ and ‘Socio-legal and ethical data challenges: managing confidentiality, anonymity, privacy and consent’.

For more information about taking part in Research Data Management Forum activities, or to sign up for notifications, drop us a line or call us on 0131 651 1239.  Additionally, you can join the RDMF social space, which has been designed as a place for sharing ideas, concerns and solutions and where members can upload presentations and minutes from past events, or suggest topics for future workshops.
