From 3-7 July 2017, EUDAT is organizing a Summer School, set in the stunning landscapes of Heraklion, Crete, and kindly hosted byย FORTH, to introduce early-career researchers to the principles and tools needed for careers in data intensive science and data management. The course is applicable to those working with big data, as well as researchers from less data-intensive communities. In collaboration with other pan European e-Infrastructures, this intense training course will provide attendees with a better understanding of the European e-Infrastructure landscape, the different tools and services offered by them, and how they can be used to improve the quality of your research outputs.
The focus of this Summer School is on Data Management and using EUDAT data services. We will demonstrate how these services, as well as services provided by other e-infrastructures, can be used throughout the Data Lifecycle. We will illustrate established research processes from different communities and how they are enabled with these services. Attendees will understand how the international e-infrastructures, which originate in different fields of research, are building blocks to allow a more integrated solution to meet their needs. Attendees are expected to actively explore data services; we will provide some individual guidance.
What will you learn?
Attendees at the summer school will be able to answer the following questions by the end of the course:
Who should apply?
The target audience is primarily early-career researchers interested in furthering their careers in the fields of data management, data science or digital preservation. These researchers may come from any research community. Data managers interested in the integration of EUDAT solutions are also invited to apply.
