Our @helmholtz_hmc colleagues are at #RDAde2025 in Potsdam, sharing updates on our work towards a Helmholtz #FAIR data space and reconnecting with peers.
Day 1 kicked off with an inspiring keynote and great discussions, plus our colleagues presented #HMC activities during the Minute Madness Poster Spotlight session! Day 2 is already shaping up to be just as exciting. Looking forward to what’s ahead! 🚀

Hallo!
Ich unterstütze Universitäten in Kolumbien bei ihren Strategien zur Verwaltung von Forschungsdaten. Kennt jemand von Ihnen Erhebungs- oder Fragebogenmodelle, um die Verwaltungspraktiken der Forscher zu ermitteln? Ich danke Ihnen sehr
¡Hola!
Estoy apoyando a las universidades de Colombia en sus estrategias de gestión de datos de investigación, ¿Conoce alguno de ustedes modelos de encuestas o cuestionarios para conocer las prácticas de gestión que tienen los investigadores? Muchas gracias
Hi!
I'm supporting Colombian universities to start the #ResearchData strategies. I'm searching for questionaries or surveys that help institutions to inquire the #ResearchData practices from their researchers (so universities can make a diagnostic of their needs and requirements). Does anyone here know some model that I can use?
Today, I'm spending the morning at the Dutch #ResearchDataAlliance meeting, held at the university library of @utrechtuniversity. 📚
I enjoyed the keynote by Paul Boselie @boselie who highlights the importance of leadership, team spirit, and taking personal responsibility in order to move towards Open Science.
Utrecht University will no longer promote people to the highest professor position unless they have proven leadership expertise!
The 'Sarah Jones Award' was established by the #ResearchDataAlliance in June 2024, to honour the memory of our dear colleague Sarah Jones, and her invaluable contributions to the global #OpenScience community.
We at GÉANT are grateful to the #RDA for establishing this award in Sarah’s memory and we are proud to support this initiative.
In Prague, Czech Republic, 14 June 2024, on the occasion of what would have been Sarah’s 43rd Birthday, the RDA is pleased to announce 'The Sarah Jones Award for exceptional contribution to fostering collaboration in Open Science.' Sarah Jones was an esteemed member of the Research Data Alliance (RDA) Council,…
I am beyond honored and deeply touched to be the very first recipient of the Sarah Jones Award for exceptional contribution to fostering collaboration in #OpenScience.
Thank you #ResearchDataAlliance for making this happen!
Today, during the Closing Session of the 23rd RDA Plenary Meeting in Costa Rica, Aleksandra Lazić was announced as the winner of the ‘Sarah Jones Award for exceptional contribution to fostering collaboration in Open Science’. The Award, established by the RDA in June 2024, aims to honour the memory of Sarah…
