Researchers are increasingly expected to provide open access to publicly funded research as part of verifying and replicating research results. This workshop provides a high-level overview of the research data lifecycle, focusing on areas to consider in order to effectively and responsibly manage research data. Participants will learn about the basic requirements of a data management plan and where to go for additional, customized help in data management planning. Additionally, time will be set aside in the workshop to discuss future topics for additional workshops focusing on data management.
