“It just works with my software” – How to adopt the FAIR principles in life science research at any career stage
April 22, 2025 @ 10:00 – 11:00 CEST
This seminar will explain why funders promote the FAIR principles and showcase how the principles are useful to you in projects and collaborations of any size. The FAIR principles are intended to support effective data sharing up to the degree that you can assert “It just works with my software”. But they apply equally well to the social aspects of data sharing and can serve as a guide to help you address the question “If I leave the lab today, how can my colleagues understand, find and use my data?”.
What you’ll learn:
- Understand the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) and their importance in research.
- Discover how adopting these principles can improve data sharing, collaboration, and long-term research impact.
- Learn practical strategies to make your data FAIR—valuable and usable for years to come.
Who should attend?
Researchers and professionals at any career stage who aim to optimize their data management practices.
Why attend?
This seminar offers actionable insights to help you align with funder expectations, enhance research reproducibility, and maximize the value of your data.
Presenters: Wolmar Nyberg Åkerström and Niclas Jareborg (NBIS, SciLifeLab)
