BRICCs-Research Data Management

Overview

The project titled BRICCs-RDM: Exploring Research Data Management Practices in Cyberinfrastructure focuses on enhancing research data management (RDM) practices to support the growing cyberinfrastructure (CI) landscape. This workshop, part of the Building Research Innovation at Community Colleges (BRICCs) initiative, aims to understand how RDM can be integrated into CI-enabled research to accelerate scientific discoveries across various fields. It seeks to bridge the gap between different research domains, which produce and consume data in diverse ways, by identifying strategies that ensure equitable access to CI resources.

Our Purpose

The primary purpose of the BRICCs-RDM workshop is to explore effective RDM practices that can support a wide range of scientific use cases utilizing CI resources. The workshop will focus on fostering innovation and addressing the increasingly complex challenges of data management, such as ensuring that data is Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR). By bringing together a diverse community of stakeholders, the workshop seeks to develop strategies for supporting advanced CI technologies that cater to the needs of various scientific disciplines, ranging from drug design and economic forecasting to astrophysics and social sciences. Ultimately, the workshop aims to inform RDM practices at campus, regional, and national levels to facilitate technological advances and innovation in research.
