Aim of the event

The webinar will provide participants with an update on the current developments in the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) and how universities should engage with it. It will also explain the importance of a Data Management Plan (DMP) and how the DMPonline can be of use for Horizon Europe projects.

At this event, Dr Phil Holliday, European Advisor, UKRO will give an overview of the Open Science requirements in Horizon Europe. Dr Juan Bicarregui, Head of the Data Division, STFC will give an update on EOSC and why universities should engage with it. Dr Kevin Ashley, Director, Digital Curation Centre will present on the DMPonline.

EOSC is an environment for hosting and processing research data to support EU science. EOSC’s ambition is to provide European researchers, innovators, companies and citizens with a federated and open multi-disciplinary environment where they can publish, find and re-use data, tools and services for research, innovation and educational purposes. The Data Division in the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) is responsible for research and development of the data systems that handle much of the huge volume of scientific data that is produced by the STFC research facilities.

Data Management Plans (DMPs) are a requirement for Horizon Europe projects that generates digital research data and they must be updated regularly throughout the lifetime of the project. Data must be FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) and made open access by depositing in a trusted repository under the principle “as open as possible, as closed as necessary”. The Digital Curation Centre (DCC) is a world-leading centre of expertise in digital information curation with a focus on building capacity, capability and skills for research data management.

Who should attend?

This event is intended for academics and for research support staff who are interested to know more about the open science requirements for research projects of Horizon Europe.
