Tips from the project: Training on open science from SciLifeLab
During the spring, SciLifeLab, together with NBIS and SND, offers a credit-bearing course (May 5-9 + 27) that goes in-depth about open science in a Swedish context and a workshop (April 1-3) that provides an introduction to research data management. Both courses are given in English.
Open Science in the Swedish context
The training ‘Open Science in the Swedish context’ is designed to equip academics across all disciplines with a range of tools needed to implement Open Science practices into every step of their research project lifecycle. In this interactive, hands-on course, participants will learn about Open Science through interactive lectures, discussions with guest speakers, and practical assignments. Participants will gain first-hand experience with implementing Open Science practices into experimental planning & design, data collection & analysis, sharing & disseminating research output, long-term data accessibility & re-use, and project & researcher evaluation.

Introduction to Data Management Practices
The workshop will introduce important research data management aspects through lectures, demonstrations, and hands-on computer exercises. The course is intended for researchers who want to take the first steps towards a more systematic and reproducible approach to documenting, describing and managing research data.
Topics covered will include
- Open Science and FAIR in practice
- Organising data, files and folders in research projects
- Describing data with metadata
- Documentation using Markdown
- Publishing data to public data repositories
- Cleaning tabular data and metadata with OpenRefine
- Versioning data, documents and scripts (e.g. by using Git & GitHub)
- Writing Data Management Plans
