Data Conversations: code and software

Data Conversations: code and software In-Person

Research software is used within all research domains and across all the phases of research. It has pivotal role in enabling reproducible research and open science. But why should you think about research software management in your practices? How can you get support to develop your code and make it more reuseable and impactful?
 
In this edition of the Data Conversations, we show what support is available at the VU ITvO and UB to develop and share your code, and get rewarded for it. Researchers, Students and Staff from different Faculties, Institutes, Services and disciplines will have a chance to hear and learn what is new on the topic of Research Software Management and research software development.
 

Come and share your software, data and open science stories and hear others. Find the registration button at the bottom of this page.
