Upcoming events for University of Bergen Library

The UiB University Library continues its popular webinar series on the principles of Open Science in autumn 2022. Open science is a research practice where processes and results are openly available under conditions that promotes sharing, use, cooperation, and societal responsibility.
The UiB University Library and its Digital Lab offer a wide range of interesting courses and events – please find more information in the calendar.

 

Data management Plans
A data management plan (DMP) describes how data in a research project will be collected, processed, and made available. Writing a DMP is good scientific practice which helps structuring the data management in a research project and a requirement by research funders, e.g. The Norwegian Research Council or Horizon Europe. See also our information page UiB Library – Data Management Plans.
August 19th 10:00-11:00 CET: Introduction to Data Management Plans (in Norwegian)
September 30th, 10:00-14:00 CET: Data Management Plan Workshop
Following an introduction to data management plans, you will be able to work on your own DMP and receive feedback.
November 25th, 10:00-11:00 CET: Introduction to Data Management Plans

How to make your data open & FAIR
Researchers are encouraged to make their data openly available as early as possible in the research process, and most funders, e.g. Norwegian Research Council or Horizon Europe, and publishers require that the research data from a project is made openly available. In the course you will get an introduction to how you can make your research data open and FAIR, and how to archive your data in our institutional archive UiB Open Research Data. See also our information page UiB Library – Open Access to Research Data.
September 2nd, 10:00-11:00 CET: How to make your data open & FAIR
December 9th, 10:00-11:00 CET: How to make your data open & FAIR (in Norwegian)

Open Access publishing step-by-step
Governments, institutions, and research funders expect researchers to make their research openly available. What is open access, why should you make your research publications openly available and what services and support is available at UiB?

September 16th, 10:00-10:45 CET: Open Access publishing step-by-step

Make your research visible using researcher profiles
Having a researcher profile is a great way to showcase contributions to your field and open science engagement. This seminar will demonstrate how to use ORCID and other researcher profiles to showcase your work. See also MittUiB online course UBB103 Profiles and Publishing Statistics and our information page UiB Library – Bibliometric services and analysis.
October 14th, 10:00-10:45 CET: Make your research visible using researcher profiles

Open Access Week
Open Access Week is an annual scholarly communication event focusing on open access and related topics. The national Norwegian program is the result of a collaboration between UiB and several other institutions and infrastructures. Stay tuned!
October 24th-28th: Open Access Week 2022

Finding & reusing research data
Reusing published research data can open new avenues of research and avoids unnecessary duplication of efforts. The webinar will give an introduction to FAIR research data as a resource, explain data citation, and demonstrate strategies to efficiently discover datasets in your discipline.
November 11th, 10:00-11:00 CET: Finding & reusing research data

Modelling living systems – From foundational problems to applications

The increased use of digitalization technologies in life science changes the way life science research is done. State of the art experimental techniques now routinely produce very large datasets of which the interpretation is unclear. This does not only increase our ability to interrogate the natural world, but also affects the research questions. This changes life-science research, but also our view of what a living system is. The practical consequences of this are still unclear.
Time and place: Sep. 15, 2022–Sep. 16, 2022, Bergen, venue TBA.
Modelling living systems – From foundational problems to applications – Centre for Digital Life Norway
Registration form: https://nettskjema.no/a/modelling-living-systems-2022

The workshop is led by Dominique Chu from the University of Kent, UK, and professor Roger Strand from the Centre for Digital Life Norway, NTNU. Participation is open to  established and early career researchers researchers, students and postdocs. The workshop will provide ample space for participants to present and discuss in depth challenges related to their research. Active participation will be encouraged. By the end of the workshop, partiucipants will have a clearer idea of hidden assumptions in their models. This will not only provide participants with a more critical view of their own practices, but hopefully also enable them to improve the relevance of their research.
