The European Commission encourages Open Science and FAIR data, since it is recognized that they improve and accelerate scientific research, increase the engagement of society and contribute significantly to economic growth.
The aim of this school is to train local providers and users on the concepts of FAIR and open data, with a focus on the innovative data repositories and IDRP tools, in order to create a class of scientists aware of proper scientific data management techniques.
The school will have short introductory lectures and will focus on hands-on lab sessions, where the participants will practice on data repositories and the associated data management tools.
All H2020 European projects that produce, collect or process research data are recommended to start dealing with the issues related, as detailed in the Guidelines on Open Access to Scientific Publications and Research Data in Horizon 2020. NFFA-Europe and EUSMI projects support the principle of open data access as a fundamental part of its mission.
Both projects implemented their own data repositories based on Nextcloud: NFFA Datashare and EUSMI DRP. These instruments are installed and hosted at CNR-IOM, under its custody, and offer to NFFA-Europe and EUSMI users a secure mean of data storage and retrieval, easily accessible from every device.
Moreover, NFFA-Europe set up the first integrated Information and Data Repository Platform (IDRP) for the nanoscience community. The IDRP infrastructure is intended as an online data catalogue where users can access, share and publish long tail data, becoming a recommended part of the mainstream in nanoscience, also thanks to the integration of the emerging EUDAT service B2SHARE.
