Data-Producing Methods in CRC 985: Recommendations for Research Data Management in Large Interdisciplinary Projects

Within CRC 985, groups from a variety of chemical institutes, chemical engineering, physics, and the life sciences collaborate on research on microgel systems. Over a funding period of 12 years, the CRC has produced numerous publications, which are associated with a large amount of underlying research data arising from many different methods. To gain a deeper understanding of this research data, the CRC 985 INF project has carried out a survey and thus gathered information on the data producing methods involved. Based on this information, recommendations for data exchange formats, data publication and archival for the current project are made. Furthermore, we propose solutions, especially for data organization and documentation, for similar, interdisciplinary projects.

Smart yet simple: Creating uniform DNA-encapsulating microgels that mimic a living cell

The living cell harbors physiologically relevant components such as the genetic material (DNA) and proteins in a "self-organized" setting. Understanding this process of self-assembly can reveal the underlying mechanism of self-organization of living matter.
